In one of my php functions I add some quite simple css. It worked very well until today. Actually the css is still doing his job, but in addition it prints in the middle of my layout whatever is written between the <style></style> tags - in my case it shows .element {display: none !important;} .
My code:
echo'<style>.element {display: none !important;}</style>';
Has there been any update to php or WP that doesn't allow this anymore? Is there any other way to do this?
Thanks a lot for your help!
