HTML entities in search export
August 21, 2011, 09:35:58 pm
Has anyone managed to remove HTML entities on a search export or potentially any export for that matter?  Specifically trying to remove html from the details field of an activity from the export option from Search->Find Activities.  Mucked around for an hour tinkering but couldn't work out a way - however it is Monday here  ;)

Done some forum and google hunting and here is a ticket relating to a similar problem - http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-6956

I dont think there has been any progress on that issue. In more recent versions, we should be storing an "html tagged" field as plain html w/o any encoding (i think)

Thanks for the reply Lobo. 

Ended up doing a quick fudge to remove the html on the particular field this time.
