The Flex Rich Text editor where Merchandisers work with long string properties does not accept code snippets, such as HTML markup. For example, if you enter <strong> Hello World</strong> as a product’s Default long description and click Save, you might expect the value to be displayed as Hello World. Instead, it is displayed as <strong>Hello World</strong>.
You can change the view mapping settings to globally replace instances of BigStringEditor with BigStringPlainTextEditor, which does accept code snippets. In the ACC:
Locate the
AssetManager big string propertyViewand change itsisDefaultproperty tofalse.Locate the
AssetManager plain text big string propertyViewand change itsisDefaultproperty totrue.
For details about locating and editing view mapping items, see Where to Find and Create View Mapping Repository Items in the ATG Business Control Center Administration and Development Guide.
