WordPress.com is an easy way to start blogging. Get a blog, check out our features, read the latest announcements, choose from great themes, or learn about the team behind it.
Need help? Check out our Support site, then
Create a new Post.
Enter the following:
[sourcecode language="html"]
<p>hello world</p>
[/sourcecode]
Click on Visual Editor. Click back to Text editor. The <p> tags are removed and it looks as follows:
[sourcecode language="html"]
hello world
[/sourcecode]
More info: If I change it again in the text editor and go back and forth, it seems to then stay. However, if I leave editor and go back in, then switch, the bug happens again.
The blog I need help with is rhyous.wordpress.com.
What's the link of the post you are referring to?
I am not referring to a specific post. I am referring to all posts with code. This was the main reason I moved two of my blogs from wordpress.com to host them myself (that an not allowing zip files).
Anyway, I left my writing blog on WordPress.com (jabrambarneck.com) and just my luck I wanted to show some HTML for creating an epub and I ran into this bug again.
I am referring to the act of writing a post. By the time I publish, I fix this bug but it takes time.
I am currently writing this post but it isn't public yet.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Start new post.
2. Change to Text tab.
3. Add sourcecode in tags.
4. Change back to Visual tab.
The bug should reproduce here.
Note: If the bug doesn't duplicate, then try this:
5. Change to the Text tab.
6. Save draft.
7. Change back to the Visual Tab
I've just reported this to our developers to look at. Thank you for the report.
