CKEditor strips <i> Tag

I'm trying to find a solution to avoid CKEditor, but also the older FCKeditor strips out any <i> tag from previously inserted content to the db.

Case:

I insert html content to the db, some content contain the <i> elements. I do this with the CKEditor. Everything works perfect and the content shows up on the webpage. But when i want to edit the previously inserted content, the <i> elements are missing.

In my specific case i use:

<i class="fa-icon-fullscreen fa-icon-xxlarge main-color"></i>

Of course if i disable the editor, the content shows up just fine in the textarea.

Solution

  • I found the solution for this specific problem i ran into with the <i> tag

    The original answer i got from drupal forum

    The fix or tweak (you name it) for it is to set the following into the ckeditors config.js:

    // ALLOW <i></i>
config.protectedSource.push(/<i[^>]*><\/i>/g);

    Thanks to Spasticdonkey for pointing me to the link.
