Hi,
A little glitch is giving me a massive headache here. I am trying to copy a HubL code {{ module.something.etc }} into a Rich text field. When copying it converts it into {{personalization_token(‘module.something.etc’), ‘undefined’}}.
If I click Publish the code works fine.
If I click Publish and then come back to edit, it won’t work. Same if I go in “View code”.
Any idea on how to cope with this ?
Thank you very much for your help,
Hi @YeSpaniard,
it’s technically not possible to paste modules into rich-text fields.
What do you want to achieve?
Personally I always recommend you to create a whole custom module with your desired functionality.
best,

Hi Anton,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Actually I can copy it and make it work but I cannot edit it easily after it’s published (otherwise I’d have to delete the “personnalizatino token” line).
The idea is to create tooltip module that I could insert wherever I want in a RTF module. So basically insert a user-editable HTML snippet, with a simple line/shortcode.
Gotcha!
My personal approach would be a custom module with a RTF and a dedicated field for the tooltip. Since it’s easier for the user and isn’t so error prone.
A custom module could look like this:
<article title="{{ module.tooltip }}">
{{ module.richtext_field }}
</article>
And here are the fields
If you want more flexibility you can create custom shortcodes like in WordPress. @Teun has created a deepdive video how to create such.
best,
Anton
