Hello together, (quite cool new forum by the way)</p>
<p>I'm upgrading several webs to version 4021 of umbraco. Upgrade went ok.</p>
<p>I then installed the version 4 compatible version of Doc2Form (version 3 I guess) and created some forms.</p>
<p>Funny things happen each time I publish the page containing the form macro: Some blanks in several text-fields of the macro are first killed and then replaced by "/r/n". After about ten publishes (only pressing save&publish several times) all spaces are gone and the marco is totaly wacked up. <em>Of course the macro won't work this way.</em></p>
<p>Anyone an idea what could go wrong?!?
This seems to be an issue with current versions of umbraco, although I believe it was marked as fixed I think it is still present in 4021. My workaround has been to put requiring textstring params into templates instead of via the editor, such as with Doc2Form.
Try disabling Tidy in umbracoSettings.config in the config folder. I believe that takes care of some of the problem. Another option to try is the UTF8 change for tinyMCE configuration. There should be a more detailed post about that in the forum somewhere.
I'm still bothered by this failure because disabling tidy gives me some wacky problems when working with styles in tinyMCE. For example changing an h1 to a h2 or similar creates bad nested html-code. With tidy on, this code is cleaned at saving and everything looks fine. Without tidy the errors stay alive and I have to change html manually. But with tidy on, my DOC2FORM-macros are killed.
No one having the same problem with a working solution?
UMB4021 and Doc2Form3 -> Publish kills blanks

Oh, not really? :-(
Anyone using Doc2Form on version 4.0.2.1 and knowing a cool workaround?

Hey Casey,
turning off tidy works well. Of course there's no tidy any more for the whole page. :-/
Thanx, Arnim.
Arnim,
You are correct, since the tidy setting is a global setting.
Take note that TinyMCE does do valid markup itself. Tidy just does additional clean-up.
You can also adjust the tinyMCE configuration, but it is a bit more cumbersome.
