Hi,
I am trying to validate my WordPress website http://www.controlmanager.it/ using http://validator.w3.org/,
I have VANTAGE theme installed.
Unfortunately I see 3 errors I cannot solve:
1) Bad value X-UA-Compatible for attribute http-equiv on element meta.
2) Element link is missing required attribute property.
3) Element link is missing required attribute property.
Could you advise me, please?
Thanks and best regards,
– Amedeo
Sorry, missing code
Bad value X-UA-Compatible for attribute http-equiv on element meta.

Hi Amedeo
Looks like you’ve resolved the no-follow issue.
The X-UA-Compatible meta tag allows web authors to choose what version of Internet Explorer the page should be rendered as (ref: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6771258/whats-the-difference-if-meta-http-equiv-x-ua-compatible-content-ie-edge-e).
This line is correct and does work with Internet Explorer, however it’s not “standard HTML”. You can read more about that here: http://blog.yjl.im/2011/01/bad-value-x-ua-compatible-for-attribute.html.
If you want to remove it you’d need to create a child theme, insert header.php into your child theme and delete the line concerned. I’ve done this for you here if you want to give it a try:

Install from Appearance > Themes > Add New: Upload
Just keep in mind that you’ll need to redo your Customizer settings and menu location setting after activating the child theme.
Super, it works!
Beautiful theme and strong assistance!
Thanks.
Awesome; glad we could help out there. Thanks for your positive feedback.
All the best.
