I managed to add NicEdit for now. That will do until you guys add something better! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/text-editor-for-paragraph-text-on-custom-field#post-46086 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 00:09:32 +0000 Chris Hajer 46086@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>The rich text editor is being added to the admin area for the notifications first, and will be rolled out to other areas as appropriate. The enhancements in WordPress 3.3 made it possible to use the rich text editor in other areas. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/text-editor-for-paragraph-text-on-custom-field#post-46076 Tue, 10 Jan 2012 22:20:01 +0000 sascha 46076@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Any news about when a simple editor will be added?

We have a huge list of new features for 1.6 already so I'm pretty sure that's not going to to make the initial v.1.6 cut. We have to wrap up the development on 1.6 and get it released sometime very soon. If the WYSIWYG editor doesn't make it in 1.6 ( again, probably not ) I'm hoping it may make a subsequent point release but definitely want to get it in by the 1.7 version. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/text-editor-for-paragraph-text-on-custom-field#post-35247 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 09:25:33 +0000 WebEndev 35247@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Kevin,</p> <p>Are there still plans to integrate TinyMCE with Gravity Forms? You had mentioned that it might make version 1.6, but it didn't. When do you see it happening?</p> <p>It would be a great addition! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/text-editor-for-paragraph-text-on-custom-field#post-35245 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 09:03:17 +0000 Kevin Flahaut 35245@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Sorry, missed this last post a while back somehow.</p> <p>Yeah, as it turns out there is a known issue with NicEdit when the textarea is nested in a list structure like Gravity Forms is. The problem seems to be isolated to FireFox. You can shift+return in the field for a line break, but that's pretty much useless for a public-facing site.</p> <p><a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3308372/nicedit-problem-in-next-line" rel="nofollow">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3308372/nicedit-problem-in-next-line</a></p> <p>Until they get that fixed, you're probably better using another solution like TinyMCE or the CKEditor. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/text-editor-for-paragraph-text-on-custom-field#post-27319 Wed, 08 Jun 2011 10:43:55 +0000 WebEndev 27319@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Kevin,<br /> Another note on NicEdit -<br /> It seems that you cannot enter paragraphs (line breaks).</p> <p>This is what I was originally trying to solve.<br /> <strong>Is there a way to maintain paragraphs when entering text into a custom field paragraph field?</strong><br /> When entering line breaks into a custom field paragraph field, the text loses the paragraph breaks in when stored in the custom field.</p> <p>If I need to start a new post for this question, I can... </p>
