• Hi there,

    I’m using Nu Html checker to see if there are any issues with the source code of my website and 4 errors have shown up.

    My confusion is in how to fix it. The website references the columns but I have no idea which element of my code I need to change. (Total noob here). I’ve used the editor on WordPress and looked in my FTP but can’t figure out exactly which elements I need to change.

    I’ve tried looking up the source code which in one instance seemed to point to column 447 within:

    “wp-content/themes/(my theme)/js/html5shiv.js”

    But there is no column 447 and doing a ctrl f search shows that code isn’t even there.

    Also confused between what is defined as a line and what is a column. (I’m aware I’ll be sounding like an idiot here).

    Any thoughts on where I’m going wrong?

    Thanks

    What “errors” are you trying to fix?

    I ran your site through that checker and while there are some technical “errors”, none are causing any problems for your site.

    Thanks for the reply Steve.

    I’m trying to fix the errors because I’m worried if I do any advertising third party social media platforms will block my website for it failing to pass W3C.

    My plan was to ignore the warnings that Nu Html checker throws up and fix the errors. Do you think I’m worrying needlessly?

    The 4 errors I’m trying to fix are below, but I don’t know where specifically I need to go in WordPress editor or FTP to fix them. When I follow the route it seems to suggest by clicking on source, I can’t find any of this code.

    Those are error, but tracking down how they got there will be a pain. Just a warning. 🙂

    It looks like one is from wp forms, so you could ask in their sub-forum.

    Hi so just to continue this.

    I solved all my errors using nu html checker which now shows only 12 warnings.

    Then I tried a few other checkers including jigsaw.w3

    It came back with 8 errors and 680 warnings, so one problem is that I’m confused which checker to listen to. The only thing I want to clarify is if I’m W3C compliant and if I’m not how to fix it.

    The 8 errors listed on the jigsaw checker website are:

    6 .slick-list.dragging Value Error : cursor hand is not a cursor value : hand
    9 .parallax-section.blank_template Value Error : min-height Too many values or values are not recognized : none
    11 #section-528 Value Error : color Parse Error :
    11 #section-156 Value Error : color Parse Error :
    11 #section-61 Value Error : color Parse Error :
    11 #section-137 Value Error : color Parse Error :
    11 #section-692 Value Error : color Parse Error :
    11 Parse Error };

    Thanks,
