HTML visible in frontend

Post by drahtlos »

Already in former versions and now even in Serendipity 1.2 I get - from time to time in an entry - HTML visible code in the front end.

So I changed the order of some plugins - but with no effect. I can't help.

Is it a known problem? Or does somebody else got the same trouble?

No. Only by random.

Hi!

When it happens, please take a screenshot. It might also be a browser issue caused by your browser extenions!

Yes! I think also that it depends on a browser problem.

You can see it here:

In this example you won't find font tags - because the user did not choose any.
In any other example you will see every tag.

Hi!

Just to understand this: You only see the HTML tags INSIDE the posting, the rest of the page is alright?

And it goes away when you reload the page a couple of times, without changing anything else?

If you view the HTML source code when this happens, do you see "<p>" tags in your code at that place, or do you see ">p<" there?

Garvin

Exactly this way!

No, it does not disappear after a severeal times of reloading. It never disappears.

Yes, it appears to be translated code. You find in the source code ><p>Hallo ihr 05er! </p><p><

Oh, okay. But you wrote it only occurs "by random"? Then there must be some reproducible way when this happens.

It can only be related to either the WYSIWYG editor, or some event plugin that converts HTML top entities. Plugins like the WIKI-markup can do that, for example.

Sorry, misunderstood - it appears from time to time in *some* postings of certain people.

It mostly happens, when certain people write entries - not comments. Only entries. This is the reproducible thing.

I do have the Wikipedia Plugin but it happend much earlier before I got this plugin.

I have the text formatting NL2BR - I will switch it off and see what will happen.

Hi!

nl2br has nothing to do with it. Can you please check if the mentioned authors use WYIWYG editing? An which event plugins do you use exactly?

Hi!

Check your plugin "Einstellungen für vertrauenswürdige Mehrbenutzer-Blogs". This is responsible. Read the description and configuration, because what you experience is actually what the plugin is meant for: Do not allow HTML for certain authors. :-)

Eeerk! Embarrassing!!! So I have to say: Sorry! And Thanks. I could have known for my own.... Serendipity is somehow too complex (for me ;-)).

Another answer to this: Wouldn't it be useful to add this feature to the normal user administration?

Well, I'd be afraid that then much more postings like yours would show up, with people wondering why their HTML is not converted? ;)

Serendipity really has a plugin approach, and I don't really see the need to put this specific feature into the core. Especially because in the future the plugin might get enhanced and is easier developed aside from the core.
