Hi,

Only recently started with SS and starting to build a site with it.

After installing the blog module have a problem which occurs when i click into read the full post.

On the full post screen html tags are visable, on the page i get:

<p>This is a great film <a href="http://www.test.com" target="_blank" title="test link">watch it.</a> etc etc etc</p>

All i really want to see is:

this is a great film watch it. etc etc etc

Is their a fix for this?

Cheers

Hi Aaron,

Thanks for the quick response to my problem.

Is there a reason for BBCode to be the default for the Blog module? It seems strange to break the SilverStripe UI convention of editing with TinyMCE - it's more consistent to enter content the same way across the site.

The first thing I did upon installing the module was to disable BBCode parsing and enable TinyMCE editing, and I think it's likely that's more in line with an end user's expectation.

It seems (per mapes911 above) that the newest version of the blog module allows you to place "BlogEntry::allow_wysiwyg_editing('true');" in your _config.php file. That would be simplest.

I can tell you what I did, but I don't recommend following my process, as I hacked the module to remove the BBCode. I've attached 3 diffs that modify the files needed. I'm planning to upgrade to SilverStripe 2.3 and the new Blog module, which is likely a better way to go.
