Posting payment links to WhatApp

[erintayloryoga]

When I post a link to WhatsApp it renders with code IE <p> at the start/end of the item description. Anyone know how to remedy that?

Hey @erintayloryoga, welcome to the Seller Community, and congrats on your first post with us! 

That does sound a bit odd alright. Does the IE <p> appear when you send the link too? Would you be able to send over a screenshot of how the item description appears when you send the link via WhatsApp? This might help me better pinpoint where the issue is coming from. Thanks!

Yep, it seems to be when I copy/paste the item pay link... it's not allowing my to upload a photo here 😕 Just can't seem to figure this one out. I guess as a workaround I could remove the item description and see if it looks cleaner/code free in a WhatsApp post?
