Issue
- We created a form with a Rich Text field, but we see that guest users can edit the content in the Rich Text field (including the source).
- How do I disable the user/guest from being about to edit the text in this form field? We do not want guests to have access to the editor.
Environment
- Quarterly Release
- DXP 7.4
Resolution
- Rich Text fields are intended to be leveraged when user input is required; as such, it is expected for users to be able to edit pre-filled content of a Rich Text field before submitting a form.
