Maybe a service like this would help?
https://wordtohtml.net/Shouldn’t be that difficult to put a
<p>
tag around each paragraph (not sentence) either.Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful.
September 12, 2019 at 10:50 am #1007998SonjaYes, since i know that, this can be done. But it is not very practical.
But my question was, why this is needed in hooks, and why i don´t need this in posts or pages? there must be a reason for that, right?
September 12, 2019 at 11:11 am #1008029LeoStaffCustomer SupportI believe the main reason is that hooks element is also commonly used to insert things like PHP and javascript so the normal text editor wouldn’t work.
Therefore it’s using a code editor instead of normal text editor,
The converter I linked above is probably the best solution for now.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
September 12, 2019 at 11:33 am #1008044SonjaYes i have looked on the converter. But it makes a <p> </p> on every return. And i don´t need this.
Maybe GPP can implement a feature like i wrote in https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/feature-request-5/
September 12, 2019 at 11:37 am #1008046LeoStaffCustomer SupportBut it makes a <p> </p> on every return. And i don´t need this.
Isn’t that what the default text editor does? I’m not sure how it would know when you want/don’t want the
<p>
tag otherwise.I really can’t recall other similar requests for this but I’ve forwarded that request to Tom.
September 12, 2019 at 11:58 am #1008067Sonjathat was an error, I wrote
<p> </p>
, but here the editor took this away.September 12, 2019 at 12:04 pm #1008078SonjaBut in general it is like this:
I use always the text editor (no visual, no gutenberg). If i want a line break, i hit the return button. Then in text editor a new line begins. But i don´t see any p tags there.
The P tags are only shown in source code.
In text editor i only use tags like h2, bold, italic and so on. And these tags i see directly in text editor, cause i set them.
September 12, 2019 at 5:24 pm #1008242TomLead DeveloperLead DeveloperThe Element editor is somewhat advanced, so it’s free from things being automatically added (like
<p>
elements. It’s actually a plus in a lot of scenarios, but it can be a pain for things like this.We’re working on a solution for that 🙂
September 13, 2019 at 9:56 am #1008840SonjaThat would be great.
December 10, 2019 at 9:12 am #1100077MichaelAny progress in this area? I’m having the same issue:
Here’s my custom field:
http://prntscr.com/q8xg73Here is my hook:
http://prntscr.com/q8xh3wAnd here’s the output:
http://prntscr.com/q8xafaI adding that using the functions.php file and the line breaks worked so maybe I should go back to that. But just curious if there’s a solution to my current approach.
December 10, 2019 at 5:36 pm #1100446TomLead DeveloperLead DeveloperHi there,
Any chance you can open up a new topic? This one is quite long.
A screenshot of the custom field itself all filled out would be useful as well.
Thanks!
July 30, 2020 at 5:07 am #1381688SonjaHi Tom,
ist there a solution for that, as you mentioned? I need to put individual text on the bottom of many tag archive pages and want to use the normal text editor to do so.
July 30, 2020 at 7:27 am #1381779DavidStaffCustomer SupportHi there,
We just added Block Elements to GP Premium 1.11 which is still in Beta.
Which has the power of the Hooks with the Block editor.https://generatepress.com/gp-premium-1-11-0-block-elements/
Other wise the hook element will rely on you adding HTML
July 30, 2020 at 7:49 am #1381973SonjaSo I can only use this, if I use Gutenberg? Because I don´t use Gutenberg, and I don´t want to.
July 30, 2020 at 1:19 pm #1382289TomLead DeveloperLead DeveloperThat’s correct. Since the block editor is the future of WordPress, we decided to go with that. The Classic editor isn’t going to be a part of WordPress forever, unfortunately.
