I am Developing a WordPress Theme which have some shortcodes to display content.

The problem I am having is, extra p elements are being added within shortcodes.

I can disable wpautop with filter, which fixes this issue but I am curious if its a good practice to disabe this default feature of wordpress.

Also, Is there any way to fix formatting with disabling wpautop ?

Thanks

I would say no, its bad practice to disable it.

The simple truth is disabling wpautop pretty much breaks the line spacing in the visual editor, and if your clients are going to want to use the visual editor, which most of them do.

Also, Is there any way to fix formatting with disabling wpautop ?
