Description

Thanks for such a lovely module.

However the formatting (line and paragraph breaks) fail. I tried changing to Full HTML format, but with no result. I also changed the theme to Bluemarine but it didn't help. I also checked the input format but the Linebreak filter is very much enabled. Screenshot attached.

Hmm.. that looks to me like a CSS issue with the theme rather than an issue with Aggregator2.

Yes, I also thought it might be due to the theme, but even changing it to the default bluemarine didn't help. Unable to put my finger on exactly where the problem is...

Have You tried to change format to "full html" on news item node? does it help for that node?

Another thing is that default "Full HTML" configuration on Drupal doesn't allow tags like p, br and div, which often are used in news containing html code. Also, in theory, news may be trying to use own tags and CSS styling for them.

If all above is not a reason then we have a bug somewhere ;]

I think I found a bug related to this one. My Aggregator2 module isn't picking up photos from Flickr. My desktop RSS reader has no problems displaying them, so I know they are there. It seems this is related to the formatting problem.

Thanks.

@ ahwayakchih: I tried everything you suggested, but nothing works. It would be great to get to the bottom of this.

To see whether any filter is being applied, try comparing the HTML stored in the db with the one being outputted

First, check the source for one of the feed items.. then go to the edit tab of the node and check the code. You will see if tags are missing. Paste the two codes here too.
