Why Class Attributes Are Removed in Zendesk Content Blocks
Why are class attributes removed from content block HTML?
In Zendesk Guide, the content block editor removes class attributes from the HTML source, except for top-level div tags. This is part of the system's design to maintain consistency and security across content blocks.
While this might limit some formatting options, it ensures that content blocks are displayed uniformly across different articles. If you need specific formatting, consider using other supported HTML elements or CSS solutions.
