 * I setup up an Event Spec – called Match Report. I placed some html which linked
   to another page in there. This has been working fine, but when i add any new 
   ones now it seems to cut out any html and just displays the text.
 * I have recently updated to the latest version of sportspress – is this why?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fevent-spec-not-taking-html%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi there!
 * Thanks for reaching out.
 * This is required by WordPress to avoid XSS vulnerabilities.
 * Only the content field can be used for HTML code at the moment.
 * Thanks!
