      Using comments within the forum macro bring a html encoding problem. Adding comment like this one

      <node name="xxx">
      <map>
      <entry key="xxx" value="false" />
      ...
      </map>
      </node>

      works ok. However if I try to edit this comment and if I'm in wiki markup mode I see this result:

       &lt;node name=&quot;xxx&quot;&gt;
    &lt;map&gt;
      &lt;entry key=&quot;xxx&quot; value=&quot;false&quot; /&gt;
      ...
    &lt;/map&gt;
  &lt;/node&gt;

      Is there a way to avoid that?

            Thank you for raising this issue. While I can see how this feature would be useful, we have no plans to implement it in the foreseeable future. In order to set expectations, we're closing this request now. Thanks again for your idea.

            Hi Hristo,

            I have tested that confluence pages itself work as you would expect - the html entities are encoded correctly both in the wiki editor and in the RTE, the page itself also rendered correctly. It means that the problem is within the forum plugin - can you please raise the issue with the plugin developers so that they can investigate further: https://www.adaptavist.com/display/Bubbles/Support

            As you have pointed out the work around is to use a code macro.

            Anatoli.

            I will add a quick note about this issue - it is valid only for the comments. If I repeat the same actions when editing a page everything works fine:
            1. Add a code macro block with some code inside it
            2. Save the page
            3. Edit it

            Result: no matter if you are in wiki markup mode or in rich text mode, you can still see the code correctly, no 

            &lt;

            and 

             &gt;

            present
