Plugin adds “a[data-mtli […]” underneath files on custom post type

[x06designs]

I installed MimeTypes Link Icons on one of my websites. Unfortunately there seems to be a bug. After adding two files to a custom post type, there is a line of text added “a[data-mtli~=”mtli_filesize1,37MB”]:after {content:” (1,37 MB)”}a[data-mtli~=”mtli_filesize1,73MB”]:after {content:” (1,73 MB)”}”. How can I get rid of this? The text doesn't appear on all pages with files - therefore, I unfortunately don't know what is responsible for the error to appear.

I am using the latest version of WordPress with the Jupiter X theme and Elementor.

I fixed the bug in my pending pull request. After updating to your newest version, the error reappeared. I can't provide a link, as it's a closed members website, but I can provide a screenshot:

hey @x06designs - thanks for this. Couldn't take all the changes, so cherry picked and gave you credit in the credit/contributors section.

The echo line looked weird, so I didn't change it, thinking earlier changes would have worked on this issue (such as data-mtli rather than rel)

however, if that's not the case, then I've put in the echo line into latest version of plugin as I tested it on my live WP site and it seems fine. Odd that it didn't work before. ¯(°_o)/¯

Anyway, v 3.2.18 has just gone out. Let me know if that fixes the issue.

Unfortunately I still see the weird addition after the files: a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,37MB"]:after {content:" (1,37 MB)"}a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,73MB"]:after {content:" (1,73 MB)"} a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,37MB"]:after {content:" (1,37 MB)"}a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,73MB"]:after {content:" (1,73 MB)"} a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,37MB"]:after {content:" (1,37 MB)"}a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,73MB"]:after {content:" (1,73 MB)"} a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,37MB"]:after {content:" (1,37 MB)"}a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,73MB"]:after {content:" (1,73 MB)"} a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,37MB"]:after {content:" (1,37 MB)"}a[data-mtli~="mtli_filesize1,73MB"]:after {content:" (1,73 MB)"} (same as in my previous screenshot).

I am running the latest version (3.2.19) and the website uses the Elementor page builder. The console doesn't show any errors, so I have no clue why this data-mtli texts appear.

I found the problem. All of my posts, that had a link to a file in the content area, had some artifacts (it looked like a video icon in the WYSIWYG-editor). After deleting it the whole data-mtli part is gone. The artifacts must've been automatically added from a previous version.
