surpessing <br /> in templates

[bsussman]

I want to inject an event listing to include "September 30, 2018 at 2:30 PM" on one line

but the shortcode processing surrounds " at " with BR tags.

How do i supress this?

Current code in the page: [wpt_events]{{thumbnail|permalink}} {{title|permalink}} <p>{{startdate}}&nbsp;at&nbsp;{{starttime}}</p>[/wpt_events]

This may be because of the <p> tags inside the shortcode. Can you replace them with <div>?

Thanks for the attention :)

Like so: [wpt_events]{{thumbnail|permalink}} {{title|permalink}} <div>{{startdate}}&nbsp;it&nbsp;{{starttime}}</div>[/wpt_events] ("at" replaced with "it" to prove my change was stored.)

Produces identical results. partial screen capture showing the code and rendered bit is attached
