    Default Snippets & Library Items

    Morning

    Contribute claims to have "full support" for "Dreamweaver snippets". I'm still
    not convinced.

    We have, for example, one snippet:

    [Q]<blockquote class="background1">
    <p></p>
    <p class="author">~ Author</p>
    </blockquote>[/Q]

    When inserted as a library item into a page, using Contribute 3, the output is:

    [Q]<blockquote class="background1">
    <p style="margin-bottom: 0;"></p>
    <p style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"></p>
    <p class="author" style="margin-top: 0;">~ Contribute
    3 </p>
    </blockquote>[/Q]

    It adds in-line styling to the elements, and inserts another set of <p> tags
    for no reason. This happens for most of the snippets/library items we have
    created, making them unusable in Contribute 3. I tried using them in Contribute
    4, and the output was better, but still not perfect (for something that is
    designed to be simple).


    Has anybody experienced this before, and are there any solutions?


    Thanks a lot

    You will have to check your Users and Roles settings (Edit, Administer websites) regarding the use of styles and adjust them to your needs.
