Venkatraman, there was something I was missing, and just found the solution. The tag is defined as (overly simplified)
@register.filter @stringfilter def cmstags(value, arg=None): return '<b>%s</b>' % value the value is the HTML content. And I needed another context-related parameter in the filter as well. And actually, I just found a way to pass an argument that I need to filter. So, where we're rendering, {{ document.content|default_if_none:""|cmstags:document.id|textile| safe }} I just add ":document.id" to pass an argument in, and that's it. I could also pass the whole context, but the ID is what I needed, really. Thanks!
