I want to be able to add tags to the main {body} of text when publishing or editing content.
My problem is EE always considers any tag I add to be text and treats it as such,
So I get…

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. {exp:mytag value="what is going on ?"}  Mauris purus. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. Mauris purus. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. Mauris purus.

instead of…

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. what is going on ?  Mauris purus. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. Mauris purus. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras ac nisi quis lorem venenatis convallis vitae a purus. Mauris purus.

I have tried disabling XHTML, using special character’s, installing LG tinymce and I have looked into LG replace but no joy.

It seems that when editing or adding new content EE doesn’t like {} braces !

Is there any way around this ?

Where are you trying to use this tag? What sort of template?

It’s in a blog.
The template is standard web page template called article and it’s used to view entries from a single weblog
via.

{exp:weblog:entries weblog={weblog_short_name} limit="1"}
{body}
{/exp:weblog:entries}

I am adding the tags via the cp’s publish and/or edit pages and the content is pulled via the {body} tag

there’s a plugin/extension that lets you process templates within weblog entries, i’ll try and find it for you
