 * WPEM is adding an extra empty paragraph before content, including the content
   inside Kadence advantced text and accordion blocks and Gutenberg paragraph blocks.
   It also won’t display Kadence button blocks but we can use a link for that – 
   how do we remove/hide the extra empty paragraphs? They look like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       <p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> 
       or 
       <!-- wp:paragraph --><p></p>
       ```
   
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fextra-empty-paragraph-before-block-elements%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * I found a fix for this plugin issue:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       p:empty { display: none; }
       ```
