I am using BBCode and my members of the forum are asking if it is possible to write html tags in the textarea without the output of html; so < html > must be outputted literally as it is written with the angular left and right
I already have BBCode enabled:

$Configuration['Garden']['InputFormatter'] = 'BBCode';

    Usually you just create a little button that inserts the character entities &lt; and &gt;.

    You could probably do this by modifying the configuration of HTMLawed.

    Yes i already found out that when disabling HtmLawed plugin, the output of html is not generated anymore. Everything is outputted literally. But also the code inside the code blocks [code] ...[/code]. And that is just the only thing which should not outputted literally. So i am going to look into HtmLawed and try to make an exception for the code tags
