+4Hi 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
Thank 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!

+4It works, but then there are no blank spaces between sentences and no paragraphs 😃
Any idea how to solve this?

Thank 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
