Wordpress is not writing <p> and <br> tags

Question

I recently made a new theme but wordpress is stripping out the <p> and <br> tags, so the text is not shown well formatted. I am not writing together another html that can create this issue...

I've seen another questions but got no answer for me. Some of them mentioned about these functions:

remove_filter( 'the_content', 'wpautop' );
remove_filter( 'the_excerpt', 'wpautop' );

But no, i don't have any of these written in my functions.php

So why is this happening?

Answer 1

You will need to put those two filter functions into your own functions.php file in your theme. Without those two lines, the default setting for Wordpress is to filter the <p> and <br> tags.
