Apostrophe character doesn't display as intended in post title

[bsmth]

Description

In the "Life@Mozilla" section, there is a feed of articles. The title of an article uses an apostrophe, but is displayed as the unicode decimal ’ (https://www.codetable.net/decimal/8217) instead.

Steps to reproduce

1. Navigate to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/careers/
2. Scroll to "Life@Mozilla"

Expected result

The article title should be:

Building connections at the ’23 All Hands 

Actual result

Article title is

Building connections at the ’23 All Hands

Environment

• Fx Nightly 122.0a1 (2023-12-05) (64-bit)
• macOS 14.1.2 (23B92)

This is how it's encoded in the RSS feed. We may need to filter when it's displayed on our end to make sure entities are rendered correctly.

Hey @bsmth, I could not find the

bedrock/bedrock/careers/templates/careers/includes/blogposts.html

Line 30 in 6cbc37c

{{ post.excerpt | safe }}

where this excerpt is coming from?

[bsmth]

Thanks for flagging it. I don't know this codebase at all, but it looks like you're on the right track. It's the <h2> ->

bedrock/bedrock/careers/templates/careers/includes/blogposts.html

Line 28 in 6cbc37c

<h2 class="mzp-c-card-title">{{ post.title }}</h2>

The other tags pipe to safe, indeed: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.0/ref/templates/builtins/#std-templatefilter-safe

Maybe this is the fix, but needs maintainer eyes because it looks very intentional that excerpts are piped to safe but not titles:

 <h2 class="mzp-c-card-title">{{ post.title | safe }}</h2>
