Hello,
I have a database collection and several of the fields are rich text fields. When I open the rich text editor on one of these fields, there is no html-tab. So I have no possibility to edit the html-code directly. The problem appeared to another user, too: I found a post here:
However, there was no terminal solution for the problem (at least not for the public) and no one replied to my comment on this post. That’s why I started a new one.
Same problem here. It looks as though Wix has done away with the HTML editing tab in the Rich Text database editor. This is a big loss, as we can no longer copy/paste code from another cell. Please, Wix – put it back?
They did away with it a couple months ago, apparently to not give people false hopes when using it…
It should’ve just come with some warning, because although it wasn’t fully stable, it added functionality. I hope Wix brings it back even in its unstable form.
Thanks for your answers.
Maybe you also have an answer for the underlying problem I have: The reason I want the html-tab ist that I want to remove the “
”-tags from my rich text – not the whole formatting as can be done with the button that strips away all html-tags; e.g. bold text or links shall remain.
And the reason I want the “
”-tags to disappear is that I want to determine the whole formatting of the text inside the dynamic page for ALL entries in my database at the same time. Is this possible? Currently, I have to re-write each databse-entry if I decide not to have a paragraph of class 2 but one of class 3. :-/
You might be able to accomplish this using string.replace(
g, <p style ="insert your styling here">), but I’ve never tried it myself. It might take some more clever RegEx if you want to be more specific.
This isn’t a solution, but I thought you might want to have a look at it. I came across this article Corvid Tutorial: Creating a Rich Text Editor Using the HTML Component I followed it. Now my text is formatted as per my site’s styles.
Then I connected the myText field to the RichText Field in my collection. Unfortunately the text in myText is not getting submitted into the RichText Field in my collection. I’m thinking this is where we use the hooks thing .getbefore etc… Anyone have any ideas?
