Insert html django contrib messages
I wanted to use raw HTML in certain invocations of Django’s Messages architecture such as in messages.success.
When sending your message:
messages.success(request, mark_safe("""Thanks for your purchase. Your <a href="%s">Account > Payment</a>""" % urlresolvers.reverse(‘account_payment_detail’, kwargs = {‘id’:payment.id}) ), extra_tags=‘html’)
Modify your Django snippet to skip the web-safe encoding:
{% if ‘html’ in message.tags %}
{{ message|safe }}
{% else %}
{{ message }}
{% endif %}Twitter Bootstrap not working with LESS.js
I was having a problem trying to use “less” (lesscss v1.2.0) with Twitter Bootstrap (v1.4).
I could see LESS pull all the bootstrap *.less files off the server but the CSS would render properly. In many cases it would have the error:
Cannot call method 'slice' of undefined
The reason is a bug in the most recent version of less.js. To resolve the problem I downgraded to “less” v1.1.5
