# Using tag inside ?

 * First off: I like the Modula Gallery very much. The user interface and the custom
   post type approach is very neat. Most probably I will go for the ‘Pro’ version
   very soon. I also do understand that there are good reasons to promote your ‘
   Pro’ version. As far as I am concerned your ads would reach me as well and as
   effectively if they were not that loud 😉
 * Now a more technical question: When looking at the HTML generated by Modula I
   stumbled over some <style> tags that I suppose have been generated by Modula.
   
   I noticed that Modula Gallery is inserting a <style> tag with content just before
   the HTML of your gallery. Although it seems to work in IE 11 (and other browsers
   I have tested) this placement is not ‘pure’ HTML standard. According to the HTMl(
   5) spec <style> tags are supposed to reside as immediate children either in <
   head> or in <body> – not in <div> or other child elements of <body>.
 * What are your plans? Do you intend to ‘clean’ your HTML up with upcoming releases?
   Or did I make a mistake using Modula Gallery (free version) that leads to the‘
   misplacment’ of <style>? Is there a way I can influence the positioning of your
   <style> tags?
 * Any thoughts are very much appreciated. As I said: I do like Modula Gallery. (
   Probably even more with standard placement of <style> tags 😉 )

 * [@edobees](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edobees/) – right off the top 
   of my head, there’s really no way we could address this. We debated this internally,
   and we encountered a multitude of issues. Conditionally loading the CSS of Modula
   inside the `<head>` section would require a mechanism of sorts that’ll allow 
   us to check if Modula’s shortcode _is actually being loaded_ on a page/post.
 * Now, the above approach would come with serious technical limitations, such as:
 * – There’s no way to tell when the shortcode would be loaded/used inside a page-
   builder or a widget that supports shortcodes
    – There’s no way to tell when or
   IF any other theme/plugin messes with the `wp_enqueue_scripts` function – Even
   if we were to figure out a way to implement this, it could potentially break 
   compatibility with plugins such as Autoptimize
 * And that brings me to my proposed solution for this. The great plugin Autoptimize,
   developed by Frank – [https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/)
 * Autoptimize has an option called: “Also aggregate inline CSS?”. Turning this 
   to ON will aggregate all inlined CSS into a single CSS file and move it to the
   header.
 * Modula works great alongside Autoptimize and it will also help speed up your 
   site while also fixing your issue at the same time 🙂
 * Thanks for taking the time to read this!

 * Dear Christian,
 * thank you so much for your quick reaction and the elaborate response.
 * I was very sure that you had good reasons doing it this way. However, I am not
   sure that I have understood all the details of your explanation. I will dive 
   a bit deeper into it – if time permits. 😉
 * … and in the meantime I have Autoptimize to the rescue.
 * Cheers and thanks. Continue the great work!

 * Hi Christian,
 * in the meantime I have taken a deeper dive into the MODULA code.
    I found an 
   alternative to using a `<style>` tag inside a `<div>`.
 * If you are interested let me know how I can send you the modifications for review.
   I’m very interested to hear your comments on my proposal. 3 files are involved.
 * By the way: I published a plugin ([wpg2mod](https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/wpg2mod/))
   that converts WordPress galleries into Modula Galleries. Maybe it can be of use
   to others.
 * All the best.

 * [@edobees](https://wordpress.org/support/users/edobees/) – wow, this is absolutely
   amazing 🙂
 * On our next plugin update, we’ll be updating Modula’s FAQ to include WPG2MOD 
   in there. It’s such an amazing contribution 🙂 Greatly appreciated!
 * Also, for your other solution, would you please be so kind to submit a pull request
   here: [https://github.com/machothemes/modula-lite/pulls](https://github.com/machothemes/modula-lite/pulls)
   with your suggested changes? 🙂
 * This way, someone from our development team can have a thorough look and decide
   if it’s OK to merge.
 * Have a great day ahead!
 * Sincerely,
    Cristian.

 * Sorry [@machothemes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/machothemes/), Christian,
 * that I have to ask about the pull request. I must also admit that I have not 
   been using GitHub too much before.
 * Unfortunately I am not able to issue the pull request. I was not able to create
   a new feature branch. I assume that I am not authorized. Any advice?
 * I loggged into GitHub with my account (edobees). Presumably I do not have sufficient
   privileges to create a feature branch and therefore cannot issue a pull request.
 * To address the `<style>` issue I modified 3 files.
 * All the best,
    edobees
