Redcloth Ate My notextile Tag

Posted on April 07, 2009

While playing with textile and UltraViolet in Webby, I found textile is re-rendering my UltraViolet generated HTML contents disregarding tags. The problem is with UltraVilet versions 4.1.1 to 4.1.9 has ignored this tag somehow. There is even a bug ticket about it.

The solution?

sudo gem uninstall RedCloth -a
sudo gem install RedCloth -v=4.1.0

This installs RedCloth version 4.1.0 which doesn’t eat your <notextile> tags and behave correctly for me.
Next I just did a webby rebuild and everything worked out for me!

Cheers!
