Adjust webparts to allow html markup?

K Fisher asked on February 2, 2015 10:52

Hi, am developing in Kentico 8.1, and wondered if its possible to enable web parts such as the generic Kentico "News List" to accept html markup and render the results, rather than the html markup?

E.g. Setting title to "A News Item ^®

Would show a registered mark in superscript (rather than the markup to produce such an effect SUPERSCRIPT TAG, CODE FOR REG MARK, CLOSE SUPERSCRIPT TAG.

I assume if its possible to change the way content entered in webparts is rendered it would work across the board on other webparts?

That text is most likely in the content before or content after property of the webpart, so yes you can modify that text. The transformation text is rendered for each item which can be modified as well.

What might I add around Eval("Title") to make html tags within Title render as HTML commands rather than print the constituent characters?

Appreciate any thoughts.
