This concerns IC 4.6.4:
One of my databases, 'careers' has a field, 'content' which contains
HTML code. I have an administrative user who has permission to make new
entries in this database. When she enters HTML code via the admin
interface, the HTML gets converted ie:
<br> -> <br>
So I logged in as the Super User, and changed the META for this field,
'content', to use the filter 'simple text2html'. This fixed the
problem, but only when I am logged in as the super user and make an
entry with HTML code. However, when I log back in as an administrator
without super user privileges, and make a new entry, the HTML code is
getting encoded again.
Anyone else had this problem? Is there a bug in the admin interface
that doesn't read the filter field of mv_metadata?
