 * Hello Everyone 🙂
 * I have installed the Coraline theme and there is a bug i think, there is an html
   code inside the article visible.., strange right ?
 * Here is the preview : [http://venusien.net/images/2015/09/14/67e9b8d04443cdac617b52794cc537e9.png](http://venusien.net/images/2015/09/14/67e9b8d04443cdac617b52794cc537e9.png)
 * As you can there is the html code like this : /” target=”_blank”>
 * Do you know where is the trick exactly ?

 * Hi there, ‘target_blank` is used to tell browsers that you want to open a link
   in a new tab or window. I would suggest deleting that link from your content 
   and then adding it back in.
 * Just in case you are not familiar with that procedure, my way of doing it is 
   to put in the text I want to be a link, then I select (highlight) that text and
   then click the link button and enter the URL and click Ok. That should properly
   link the text. If you wish to have it open in a new tab/window, check that box“
   Open link in a new window/tab” box before adding the link.

 * Hi Sacred,
 * In fact, it’s not a link, it’s only a simple text like below :
 * Good : Systeme de Management de la Qualité
    **Bug** : Systeme **974/” target=”
   _blank”>** de Management de la Qualité

 * Bonjour, as sacredpath said, there is some stray HTML with your post content.
   If you’re having trouble seeing it, I’d suggest switching the post editor from
   the Visual Editor to Text view, and you can edit out the stray HTML there.
 * You’ll see something like this:
 *     ```

       /" target="_blank">Management de la Qualité) avec la norme
       ```
   
 * You’ll be able to edit out the bad HTML more easily there.

 * Hi Kathryn,

 * Thank you for your reply, i have analysed and it’s still the same problem. There
   is somthing with the text “Systeme de Management de la Qualité”, it seems that
   the bug stick on that text always.. As you can see on live site, every text “
   Systeme de Management de la Qualité” has the bug.
 * Do you think, a hacker has did something inside the theme editor ? 😀
 * I’ve checked again with SEO settings and Metadata, it looks ok, now the problem
   perhaps found with this theme ?
 * Regards.

 * The next troubleshooting step I can suggest is temporarily deactivating your 
   plugins. See if the issue goes away – if it does, try reactivating them one by
   one to find the culprit. You could also do the reverse – deactivate one at a 
   time and check your site in between each.
 * I doubt this is a theme-related issue as the theme doesn’t mess with your post
   content. 🙂

 * By the way, that screenshot does not look like the regular HTML editor in WordPress–
   where is that coming from? This is what the HTML editor looks like:
