How to avoid <p> tags generated when using ViewWidget on tiddlers with html code

[Adithya B M]

Hi All,

Im trying to generate a website from TW using the tutorial at https://www.didaxy.com/exporting-static-sites-from-tiddlywiki-part-2

I am facing a problem when using the view widget to import html from different tiddlers. When doing that, the widget adds a <p>...</p> around the content. This breaks the flow of the content.

The tiddler in question doesnt have the p tags. It starts from the <ul> tag. How to avoid this problem?

Thanks in advance!

I notice that there is a line break after the tick ` . I wonder if that could be introducing a <p> ? I notice the tutorial doesn't insert that break.

The problem is there even on a a blank Tiddlywiki. The <p> tags are inserted even though the 'Hello' tiddly contains only the <ul>....</ul> content.

Perhaps you can use normal transclusion, and leave the HTML generation for the static export process.  Thus, instead of writing

<$view tiddler="Hello" format="htmlwikified" />

you could write:

<$transclude tiddler="Hello" mode="block" />

or maybe even just

{{Hello}}

-e

Hi Eric,

That doesnt solve the problem since the transclusion renders the html instead of printing just the code. The code is needed because this tiddler is extracted into a html file and used to build a website.

That works! With the addition of the 'output="html"' parameter :)

<$wikify name="output" text={{111}} mode="inline" output="html">

<$text text=<<output>>/>

</$wikify>

Do you think this could be shortened into a macro call?
