We wanted to enable HTML tags in author description box, like a, p and h1 but it’s not working,
Is thr anyway to do that?

thanks

Google it, not related to theme, but there is a function to change that

Ok I read the security issue, I tried my own method and it’s working fie, Only <p> and <br/> tags were working so it’s fine and I can manage it

thanks

Correct! Generally you would *not* allow this if you had public folk signing up and having ability to edit their accounts/bios ….

but in a magazine setup, you might want to have ‘long bios’ — we do that here; and I think we used one of the common functions like this

//disable WordPress sanitization to allow more than just $allowedtags from /wp-includes/kses.php
remove_filter('pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_kses');
//add sanitization for WordPress posts
add_filter( 'pre_user_description', 'wp_filter_post_kses');
