Presta 1.7 - Product page - Hook - Product Description

[delete-account-pleas]

Hello all,

 

I am having issues with product description in prestashop 1.7

 

I have a module which hooks into the product page and displays the product description.

However it works fine, but it keeps showing HTML tags in the text like "<br>, <p>, ..." nothing what i try does solve the issue.

The code works in prestashop 1.6

 

Things i have tried:

• {$product->description}
• {html_entity_decode($product->description)}
• {$product->description|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}
• {html_entity_decode($product->description|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8')}

 

Original code:

{if isset($product) && $product->description}
<div aria-expanded="true" class="tab-pane fade active in" id="tab1">
    <div class="product-description">
        <p>{html_entity_decode($product->description|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8')}</p>
    </div>
</div>
{/if}

use |strip_tags modifier to remove the html code from variable

Yeah tried that one to, but it removes the tags, so when customers use for instance "<iframe> it will not be displayed since the tags are removed.

This did the job {$product->description nofilter}, the HTML code is being displayed correctly now

{if isset($product) && $product->description}
<div aria-expanded="true" class="tab-pane fade active in" id="tab1">
    <div class="product-description">
        <p>{$product->description nofilter}</p>
    </div>
</div>
{/if}

Hi,

 

I am currently struggling with this on 1.7.

i have tried these:

            {$product.instructions|escape:'htmlall':'UTF-8'}

            {$product.instructions|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}

            {$product.instructions|escape:'escape:'striptags':'UTF-8'}

 

but every time it leaves behind <b> and </b> and </br> all over the page.

 

Any ideas?

Actually, just tried nofilter and it works! well done guys you are heros!

            {$product.instructions nofilter} worked great!
