I am experiencing some problems while trying to insert XML code snippet into my WordPress articles.
I have just read this tutorial: http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Code_in_Your_Posts
I am using the base WordPress editor to write my articles (not using other plugin)
I am using the SyntaxHighlighter Evolved plugin to enter code snippet inside my blog.
I am experiencing a strange behavior when I enter XML code snippet.
I enter the code snippet passing into the textual view in the editor and inserting here the following code:
[code language="xml"]
my XML code here
[/code]
Ok, if I save the articles when I am into the textual mode of the editor it automatically modifies the XML code by eliminating most of the information in this code snippet.
Instead seems that if a switch the editor in the visual mode and here I save, I don’t lose information and the code snippet is correctly shown in my article.
I have also try to insert some XMLHTML code into a <pre>
tag but it don’t work. For example if I insert this code:
<pre>
<div>This is a div</div>
</pre>
this is not show a bow containing: <div>This is a div</div>
but a new div container is created and is shown: This is a div
Why?
How can I solve?
Can I work on WordPress filters to say it that have to do nothing text change when I post an article from the textual (HTML) view of my editor?
