Multi-line Text Field Including HTML Code In Nintex eMail Subject?

[andymcv]

Hi Gang

We have a 2013 SharePoint list that has a 2013 Nintex workflow attached to it.  One of the actions in the workflow is to send a notification email.  The subject of the email contains a multi-line text field that is defined as plain text.  The problem is when the email is created/sent it contains HTML code in the subject (from that multi-line field).  Is this a bug??  Other than stripping out the HTML code programmatically this is the only way we can stop it.  Does anyone have any other solution?

Hi Andy, I've had this issue on a few occasions. What I have done to overcome it is to use a temp variable and a Set variable action just before this. Set the temp variable:

Workflow Data > Temp Variable then click on the ... to specify the format of the value, and choose Plain Text
