I have a case where I have to display text in a HTML element after it was saved from a Rich Text input. For some reason the HTML element does not show the text correctly.
Does anybody know of a way to do this?
Thanks
Just messed around with it. I think it may be because the HTML element requires < > for tags, and the rich text input saves tags in [ ]. Seems like text elements use [ ] for formatting and displaying tags, and not standard HTML < >.
That’s my best guess.

@romanmg unfortunately I can only give one like and I can’t kiss you so I’ll just say THANK YOU! 
I never noticed it and I’ve been staring at it a long time. The solution is easy place everything between html tags 
Have a look at how it displays it now

Haha yay!! I’m so glad. I’m looking at it now as I actually tried to figure out where to place HTML tags too - how did you do it? It looks great!
I place <Html> before actual Html code and </Html> at the end. But it only works with html code. I converted a Word document to Html and pasted it the text editor.
Oh I see! Ok, I thought you were specifically trying to get the data from the rich text editor to display in the HTML element. But yes, so glad this was figured out!

Gaby, do you know how to stop the tags from showing? I’m creating a blogging feature with rich text and the result is that the formatting is showing…
@gregjohnkeegan Can you set this page up or share a link so I can see how you’ve got it currently?

Hi Guys,
I’m having this same issue at the moment - blog/post style. Text input via rich text input and showing the same.
Have used html elements and text elements with now luck.
Any ideas?
