A Statamic addon for safe HTML entity insertion in Bard, text, and textarea fields. Adds a Bard toolbar button for inserting soft hyphens, non-breaking spaces, en dashes, and other typography entities, plus Blade directives to render them safely.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

```
composer require jorisnoo/statamic-safe-entities
```

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

Publish the config file to customize which entities are available:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="safe-entities-config"
```

Default configuration:

```
return [
    'entities' => [
        '­' => 'Soft Hyphen',
        ' ' => 'Non-Breaking Space',
        '–' => 'En Dash',
    ],
];
```

Each entry maps an entity code to a label shown in the Bard toolbar dropdown.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Bard toolbar

[](#bard-toolbar)

The addon adds an "&" button to the Bard toolbar. Clicking it shows a dropdown of configured entities. Selecting one inserts the entity code at the cursor position.

### Blade directives

[](#blade-directives)

Two Blade directives are available for rendering entities safely:

#### `@entities($text)` — for text/textarea fields

[](#entitiestext--for-texttextarea-fields)

Escapes the string for safe HTML output, then restores configured entity codes so they render as actual entities.

```
@entities($entry->title)
```

#### `@entitiesHtml($html)` — for Bard/rich-text fields

[](#entitieshtmlhtml--for-bardrich-text-fields)

Restores double-encoded entities (`­` back to `­`) in already-rendered HTML.

```
@entitiesHtml($entry->content)
```

### PHP

[](#php)

You can also call the methods directly:

```
use Noo\SafeEntities\SafeEntities;

$text = SafeEntities::render($value);
$html = SafeEntities::renderHtml($value);
```

Both methods accept an optional second argument to override which entities to restore:

```
SafeEntities::render($value, ['­', ' ']);
```

Testing
-------

[](#testing)

```
composer test
```
