Description

1. Start up portal and navigate to Admin > Content > Message Boards and click the Configuration cog icon.
2. Set the Message format dropdown to HTML.
3. Create a Message Boards thread and publish it.
4. Create a new Message Boards category.
5. Go to the Message Board thread, and click on Move Thread.
6. Select the new category you created and check the "Add explanation post" checkbox.
7. Click Source in the CKEditor and add HTML code to the editor.
8. Click on Move Thread

Expected result:
Published message board explanation post should correctly display what is defined in the Source (without showing the actual HTML code).

Actual result:
Published message board post displays whatever is literally written in the source, this includes HTML tags or anything that is written. Adding text (with any line) to the normal Editor and publishing will create a post with that line literally written in the source (no formatting or HTML tags)

This behavior also occurs with Split Thread:

1. Go to the Message Board thread, and click on Split Thread on the explanation post.
2. Check the "Add explanation post to the source thread" checkbox.
3. Click Source in the CKEditor and add HTML code to the editor.
4. Click OK

Expected result:
Published message board explanation post should correctly display what is defined in the Source (without showing the actual HTML code).

Actual result:
Published message board post displays whatever is literally written in the source, this includes HTML tags or anything that is written. Adding text (with any line) to the normal Editor and publishing will create a post with that line literally written in the source (no formatting or HTML tags)
