When we insert content into ckeditor field,suppose we write single line of text into ckeditor without any html tag, why its wrapping paragraph tag automatically around the text .
I need to remove this paragraph tag because its breaking my page's structure.
In Drupal 8, you may need to implement hook_editor_js_settings_alter and set config.autoParagraph to false, as referenced here: CKEDITOR.config.autoParagraph
/**
* Implements hook_editor_js_settings_alter().
*/
function MODULE_editor_js_settings_alter(array &$settings) {
foreach ($settings['editor']['formats'] as $name => $value) {
$settings['editor']['formats'][$name]['editorSettings']['autoParagraph'] = FALSE;
}
}
In Drupal 7 you have to go to admin/config/content/ckeditor press "edit" in the profile you want to change, and then under "Custom JavaScript configuration" (in advanced options section) add this line:
config.enterMode = CKEDITOR.ENTER_DIV;
more info in the original answer by alex-petrov:
In Drupal 8 using CKeditor if you change the text format to 'Full HTML' (to allow div tags) then click on source and then change the <p> for a <div> then it will not automatically add the <p> tags in next time it loads the content.
This is because, (as clive mentioned) there needs to be a block level element at the root of the document.
This is often less problematic than wrapping it in a p tag as sites are less likely to have global div styles, spacing, borders, padding, etc.
If you don't have a <p> in the Allowed HTML tags and enable the "Limit allowed HTML tags and correct faulty HTML" filter no <p> will be output on the front end. These settings appear per text format seen at /admin/config/content/formats.
The Allowed Formats module allows you to restrict certain fields to specific formats. This way you can restrict this field to a specific text format, a format that does not allow <p> tags, but allow them everywhere else.
