## Апісанне

**Copy&Paste Cleaner**. If you want to quickly fill a post or a page with content
that already exists, **copy&paste** is often used and it can destroy the layout 
of a website!

The basic problem is that if you copy&paste content from different sources into 
the visual editor, any formatting is copied over. Specifically, whether from **text
documents**, other **websites**, **online-shops** and **cms** or even from **social
media**, something comes along everywhere.

As there are often **DIVs** in addition to harmless HTML elements, these can cause
the rendering of your own website to be faulty or interrupted.

To avoid this, this plugin checks the existing formatting and attributes and removes
all those that could lead to a problem and then saves it directly.

**If you copy and paste into the text editor, there is usually no problem.**

Tested with these page builders:

 * Classic editor
 * Gutenberg
 * Divi 4.27
 * Elementor 4.2
 * WPBakery 9.0
 * Beaver Builder 2.10

**Privacy GDPR**

This plugin processes the analyzed and converted HTML only within the respective
website. No content is stored or transferred to other servers or services for processing.
Data protection in accordance with the GDPR is therefore guaranteed at all times.

## Часта задаваныя пытанні

### Why are some img elements being removed?

External images — those whose src attribute points to a foreign domain — are removed
for copyright, performance and security reasons. Images that are hosted on your 
own domain (relative paths or same-domain absolute URLs) are kept. You should always
insert image data properly and equip it with the appropriate attributes, which is
better for accessibility and SEO.

### Is it working with Beaver, Gutenberg, Divi, Elementor or WPBakery?

At the moment it works fine with Classic Editor, Gutenberg, Divi 4, Elementor, WPBakery
and Beaver Builder. Integration for Divi 5 is in process.

### Why are the alt, aria-* and title attributes removed?

These attributes are important for accessibility, but should be added and adapted
individually so that the context is maintained.

### Why are emojis being removed too?

Although emojis are based on the international Unicode, they are sometimes displayed
differently. This means that an emoji can look completely different on iOS, Android
and Windows and have a corresponding effect. These are filtered out to avoid misunderstandings
in terms of content and to avoid potential display errors.

### How does it work in Gutenberg?

There are two ways to use it in Gutenberg: you can clean up the entire post or page
or just the content of a block. To clean up a block, simply use the icon in the 
toolbar. If you want to clean up the entire content at once, go to the sidebar and
use the Clean up HTML button in the HTML Cleanup section.

### How does it work in Beaver Builder?

In Beaver Builder the cleanup button appears directly above the text editor toolbar
inside each text module. Simply click the button to clean up the HTML content of
that module. A spinner indicates that the process is running, and the button briefly
turns green once the cleanup is complete.
