Empty tags in custom module

[oligalma]

I tried to enter Font awesome tags in custom module and it seems not possible, because the editor deletes empty tags. For example, I tried this:

Code: Select all

<div>
<a href="http://facebook.com"><span class="fa fa-facebook fa-lg"> </span></a>
<a href="http://twitter.com"><span class="fa fa-twitter fa-lg"> </span> </a>
<a href="http://plus.google.com"><span class="fa fa-google-plus fa-lg"> </span></a>
<a href="http://[youtube].com"><span class="fa [youtube] fa-lg"> </span></a>
<a href="http://linkedin.com"><span class="fa fa-linkedin fa-lg"> </span></a>
</div>

Therefore, I suggest that the editor don't delete these kind of tags.

Note: In Plugins > Tiny Mce editor > Extended Valid Elements I already have span[*] but it seems not to work.

Review of the discussion viewtopic.php?f=706&t=947572 could be of help.

However, I was not successful in creating what you have posted.

In these circumstances, I use the option "Editor - None" which works fine.

Thanks for your answer. But "Editor - None" is a general option in Global configuration. Is there a way to disable the editor in a specific module?

The following will work.

- In the Global Configuration, for the option "Default Editor" choose the value "Editor - None"
- Edit/create the module of the type "Custom" with the code you referenced
- In the Global Configuration, for the option "Default Editor" choose the value "Editor - TinyMCE"

Note: Only thing to keep in mind is that whenever, you edit this module, you have to remember to choose the value "Editor - None" for the Global Configuration option "Default Editor".
