    How to maintain formatting from the Document Type into modal content

    Using Umbraco And Getting Started
    Umbraco 7

    Hi, I have a Team Members section of the site with portrait, name and position for each member. When you click the portrait, it loads a modal with a bio. I have tried the Property Editor as textarea and Richtext editor but it won't pull the formatting through in either case.

    With textarea it just ignores the formatting, and with Richtext editor it adds all the HTML tags to the text. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here...?

    "Bio" property within doctype Team Member

    How the modal displays

    I'm not sure how you're calling your bio property without seeing the code, but I'm assuming you're retrieving it as a string?

    If so, you could wrap it in Html.Raw()to strip the tags, like so:

    var rteText = "<p>String with paragraphs</p>";
@Html.Raw(rteText) // Stripped
@rteText // Unstripped

    Hope this helps!

    Great, thanks! I was pulling through the bio via var bio = node.GetPropertyValue("bio").NullSafeToString(); so then in the modal-body called <div class="modal-body"><p>@Html.Raw(bio)</p></div>, which worked!

    Thanks for your help!
