I\'m using i18next to power i18n for my weblog. It works great on text-only content, but when I try to translate content that includes HTML markup, it is displaying the raw

Answer 1

From the documentation:

Hint 3: Escaping:

// given resources
{           
  'en-US': { 
    translation: { 
      key1: Not escaped __nameHTML__,
      key2: Escaped __name__ 
    } 
  }
};

i18n.t("key2", { name: '', escapeInterpolation: true }); // -> Escaped <tag>
i18n.t("key1", { name: '', escapeInterpolation: false }); // -> Not escaped 

Adding suffix 'HTML__' to your value will prevent the escaping even if option is set so.

You could turn on escaping on init i18n.init({escapeInterpolation: true}); or by passing in option to t function like in the sample.
