Using html in type="text"
I am building a template for a list of members. In Austria we have thing called "gendering" for titles. In order to do that, I have a field, that needs to output html.
<perch:content id="member_title" type="text" label="Titel des Mitglieds" />
My client is going to fill this with
Mag<sup>a</sup>, Dr<sup>in</sup>
If I just write it in like that, the output is just text, with <sup>'s in them. Can I not write html in the field-type text? Do I have to use the textarea field-type?
All text is HTML-encoded by default by the templating engine. That's just good practice.
If you don't want a field to be encoded, add
encode="false"to the tag.I tried that - but it didn't change anything.
Did you re-save your content?
Yes I did, but it didn't work.
But now that I picked it up again, it seems to work - so thanks for helping!
