Code (syntax highlighting) field is stripping html tags

Hi Scott & Team,

Thanks for all the hard work.
I’ve rolled back to 3.0.10 so no drama and that solves what I saw.

But thought you should know that the latest updates appear to Strip out the html tags when being displayed on front end (back end they are there). I believe <script > and <div > tags were stripped for sure.

For refererence I am outputting via a shortcode from the Pods Beaver Themer Add-On (Berhard’s plugin).

Cheers
Paul

Does the Code field have HTML tags allowed on it and if so what are the field settings there?

Hi there 🙂

I don’t see an option to allow html tags in the field setup:

Note that this screenshot is from rolled back 3.0.10 so perhaps you have added new allow html tags in latest version? If so perhaps legacy fields should have whatever the equivalent would be as default?

In case you mean in the shortcode though, the shortcode I am using is Beaver Builder pods addon (Berhard G):

[wpbb post:pods_display field=’beacon_code’]

Hope that helps solve an issue if there was one.
Seems that it was fine up to and including to 3.0.10.
So my assumption is it’s related to some security things you have added.

Thanks mate 🙂
Paul

Figured out what’s up here, it’s the output sanitization. Pods uses this similar to how ACF does theirs.

I’m adding an option to enable/disable this sanitization per field in Pods 3.1.2 but that won’t go out until we have a few more fixes put together depending on what people report today/tomorrow.

To customize the output sanitization, reference the examples here:
