My client is getting impatient, as they expected to launch this feature this week. If I can't get this sorted out by the end of the week I will need to start over using another method, and I really hope to avoid doing that! Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/confirmation-page-renders-code-as-html-entities#post-81332 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 01:26:16 +0000 aguaweb 81332@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Whoops - not sure what happened to the WYSIWYG editor. I added it back in so it's now showing again.</p> <p>The default theme is stripping the HTML completely, whereas my theme is converting to entities. So maybe this is a theme issue? I am using a Genesis child theme. Although the default theme (Twenty Eleven) should not be stripping the HTML, so even with that theme there is still a problem, just not the same problem. Neither theme is giving me the result I want.</p> <p>Deactivating plugins didn't make any difference so there don't seem to be any conflicts there.</p> <p>Is there perhaps a better way to enable users to input HTML in a text area (use a small selection of tags) - and have it output as HTML? The primary need here is to accommodate links - so that when the merge tag is used on the confirmation page, it shows a clickable link. So if you can think of any other options please let me know! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/confirmation-page-renders-code-as-html-entities#post-81300 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 22:09:34 +0000 Chris Hajer 81300@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Sorry I never updated that original topic. We did talk about this one a little bit. Can you first please check for theme and plugin conflicts by following these instructions <a href="http://rkt.gs/testing" rel="nofollow">http://rkt.gs/testing</a></p> <p>However, in thinking about this, the textarea is not WYSIWYG on this page. So, the text you are pre-populating it with should be converted to entities, correct? Why would HTML be allowed in that textarea? It should be just text. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/confirmation-page-renders-code-as-html-entities#post-81209 Mon, 15 Oct 2012 15:26:10 +0000 aguaweb 81209@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I successfully integrated TinyMCE as a visual HTML editor per this thread: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/tinymce-visual-editor-html-stripped-from-submitted-entries" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/tinymce-visual-editor-html-stripped-from-submitted-entries</a></p> <p>I am displaying the form results to a confirmation page. On the confirmation page it is converting everything to HTML entities, so the &lt;p&gt; tag is displaying on the page as "&lt;p&gt;lorem ipsum&lt;/p&gt;" instead of as "lorem ipsum" inside an HTML paragraph.</p> <p>When I look at the entry in the dashboard it is rendering correctly, so this issue seems to just be limited to the confirmation page? How can I get it to render as HTML instead of being converted to text?</p> <p>You can view the example here (the results are displayed at the very top of the confirmation page): <a href="http://thirdiron.com/libguides-widget/" rel="nofollow">http://thirdiron.com/libguides-widget/</a></p> <p>I had addressed this issue in the previously mentioned thread but have had no responses so I figured it would be better to instead move it to its own thread. </p>
