Remove inline styles from text

Question

I'm using Trumbowyg which is a javascript text editor. My problem is, when I paste text from another site into the editor, it adopts the style of the text from that site. How can I prevent this?

My editor is rendered in my Django template like this:

{{ post.content }}

Is there a template tag I can use to remove HTML? Because the external styling is inline styles, eg <span style='font-family: Arial;font-size:30px' etc..?

Answer 1

To remove styles from a formatted paste (styles pasted from clipboard) in Trumbowyg , set the removeformatPasted option to true :

$('.trumbowyg').trumbowyg({
  removeformatPasted: true
});

But also keep in mind:

• In order to use this option, you need to define a font size in your CSS or use a reset like normalize.

• Remove format pasted is not active by default (set to false ).

Answer 2

You want to remove HTML tags? If yes just use:

{{ post.content|striptags }}
