Hello, I just noticed that when I post HTML content using the API posts.json and then I edit the post, I see the HTML in the content of the post. How the post displays: [image] When I click on edit: [image] API request: [image] When I post directly via the form, no HTML is showing up in t…

If you try to sanitize some imported HTML content, I suppose you can replace paragraphs with line breaks as well, so you’ll be sure there are line breaks, and the post will be processed properly. some textsome other text would become: \nsome text\n\nsome other text\n And will rende…

Hi Luicid :wave: The raw content, which is displayed in the composer, accept an array of HTML tags, thus it will display them in plain text. If you want to add a line break without using a tag, use \n instead. :slight_smile: First line\nNew line If you want to have two paragraphs, you need …

Ok, thank you :slight_smile: Last question: Is there any way you can tell me how to add a mention, like this one: @Canapin , in a post via the API? I tried using @username in the raw field, but it doesn’t work.

Be sure you send a JSON payload. { "raw": "Test mention: @canapin", "topic_id": 86, "reply_to_post_number": 3 } Result is a working mention: [image]

Ah, I see my mistake! I was testing with a lowercase username instead of using the exact username, as the mention is case-sensitive. My apologies. Thank you for taking the time to help me! :wink: Have a nice day !

Honestly, I created a POC with an import script in Ruby, but since I need to synchronize data for several days between an old solution and Discourse, I prefer running a simple Python script. It’s much faster to set up and maintain. Additionally, it’s consistent, as I scrape the old data with Python.…

Mentions should work even if we mess with the capitalization: [image] The screenshot in your first post uses a form-data. You should use a raw field with JSON formatting. :slight_smile:
