HTML not functioning on unpublished cache

[+TmdAndGG]

Using html code on a cache description, and when we preview the cache page, it still shows the code, not the proper display. Even sections of the code that we copied directly from other published caches, does not display correctly in the new one. Do we need to submit it first, before we can see the proper page display, or should we be able to see it before submitting this for publication? Thanks in advance!

I just wrote up a new cache listing and the HTML displayed as expected on the preview page and published cache.

I'm no expert in this area, but I think there's still a check box that says "description uses HTML", and this sounds like the behavior I'd expect if it isn't checked.

This all recently changed when they added a WYSIWYG editor to the cache edit page. If you go to edit your cache's description, you'll see a panel like this:

 

 

You need to click on the </> Source button to switch it to html mode when you can then add in your code.

Thank you all! We aren't used to the new changes, but have gotten it working properly now. We appreciate the help!
