=raw excerpt not displaying HTML

[Kynan Chambers]

Hi!

In the tooltips, my html is not coming through. The output on the frontend is completely stripped of the html I need. It is in the event description in the excerpt field (the html I need is jut a <br>) and I’ve checked the tooltips.php file and narrowed it down to this:
—-
[[ if(excerpt.length) { ]]
<p class=”entry-summary description”>[[=raw excerpt]]</p>
[[ } ]]

fluxar,
Thanks for getting in touch, and hopefully I can help you out here. By default, the tooltips for the Calendar use the_excerpt() function in WordPress to display a preview of the event description. This function strips all HTML by default, so you’ll need to customize this functionality to allow the BR tag.

Using a quick Google Search, I found this blog post which talks about allowing different HTML tags in your excerpts. Hopefully that points you in the right direction.

Thanks! 🙂
