Shopify product description shows with HTML tags

Question

Hi guys,

I am setting up a back in stock flow and was wondering how I could add the product description.

I am using the following code, which pulls the description dynamically from the catalogue.

{% catalog event.VariantId integration='shopify' %}{{ catalog_item.description }}{% endcatalog %}

However, the description includes HTML tags (see Screenshot). What do I have to do, to remove them?

Thanks

Hendrik

Hi @NextLevelThank you for posting your question in the community.While I have not specifically run into this challenge I wanted to chime in and see if I could help point you in the right direction to get the HTML tags removed.Klaviyo uses django web framework. When I create custom code to format shopify data I reference the Django documentation frequently.https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/templates/builtins/In your case, there is a condition called Striptags which is supposed to remove HTML tags from a block of text.I am not an expert in Django, but play around with it, I think if you add the following to your code, it could do the trick.{{ value|striptags }}{% catalog event.VariantId integration='shopify' %}{{ catalog_item.description|striptags }}{% endcatalog %}Please let me know if that does the trick!@In the Inbox

Hi @EnelclavoThank you for the follow up. While the initial goal of remove the HTML tags for the content did work, I am sorry to see it’s completely removed the formatting from the email. I’d be curious if any of the other Champions might have an idea here to help @Bobi N.@Omar@retention?@In the Inbox
