Markdown doesn't render in custom fields in table view
NetBox version
v3.2.8
Python version
3.8
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a custom field of type Text(long) for any content type, e.g. IPAM->IP addresses
- Add some Markdown or raw HTML to the custom column for an IP address object in the IPAM
- See that the Markdown/raw HTML is not rendering in the IPAM->IP addresses table view
This was working in v3.2.7, so this is probably due to this merge request: https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/commit/38350a102320ea4b1f6bdb81b454c452f9779d2b
Expected Behavior
Markdown should render in custom columns in the table view for any content type if field type Text(long) was chosen for the custom column.
Observed Behavior
Markdown/raw HTML is not rendering for Text(long) custom columns in the table view of any content type like IPAM->IP addresses.
Just fixed it in my local environment. If you want to assign me to this one I will create a pull request.
This was working in v3.2.7
Was it? I tried using v3.2.7 and it doesn't render markdown in table columns. There's no logic in CustomFieldColumn to render Markdown, so I doubt this has ever worked.
No, you are right. Just checked, I am using plain HTML in some custom columns, and not markdown. But plain HTML definitely worked before 3.2.8 (which ultimately led to the XSS flaw).
