Possible to create infinite empty paragraph blocks at end of editor #56401
Comments
@jasmussen this might be related to your PR that removed the placeholder. Can you speak to this at all?! |
I don't know that I'd call this a bug, since it's arguably how editors should work, with Enter creating linebreaks. This wouldn't be substantially different by repeating the "Type /" prompt down the page. My personal opinion is that this is working as intended, but I can see how a bunch of empty paragraphs at the end, which show up only in the list view, could be perceived as bad markup. How would you feel about a "linting" type interface, perhaps one that shows up in the pre-publish flow? Such an interface has already been discussed in terms of links that link to |
tl;dr - The bug report is specifically about empty paragraphs unexpectedly generated by clicking in empty space. There were additional parts of the experience that made it feel even more like a bug. @jasmussen I think the title of my bug report is poorly worded in retrospect and didn't really capture what I was trying to communicate. I'll try again!

Apologies. I've had some busy days, thank you for clarifying. Agreed, that isn't helpful. Consecutive presses of Enter feels intentional, but just clicking (with the mouse, below the content) does not seem like an editorial action. 👍 👍 |
Description
As of WordPress 6.4, it seems that one can continually create new empty paragraph blocks at the end of the post by clicking below the last paragraph.
