Automatically add paragraphs

we are having the same issue and i was about to post a ticket about this – we downgraded to the previous version and the symptoms went away. please change whatever you changed back so that we are not having weird formatting issues with our developments.

thanks

Hi there,
the issue you reported has been fixed in versions 2.1.3, just released. Please update.

P.S. The option ‘Automatically add paragraphs’ only affects rendering of the widgets and not editing (it’s almost the same behavior provided by the native WP text widget).

still have this issue…anyone else see the same thing?

@bmsinc please could you try with the current dev version that you may find on our Github repo?

I am using version 2.1.6 with WordPress 4.1 within Page Builder 1.5.3 and am getting the same problem with line breaks. If they are added using the visual editor or if they are added as <p></p> in the text editor they just disappear when the widget is updated. I.e they sometimes work once but if the widget is re-opened they then disappear. If there is no text in the widget (it just contains images) then the page break doesn’t seem to work any time.

@axtonc As I previously said please could you try if the github dev version is working for you?

I am not really knowledgeable enough to do this. Tried replacing the 2 php files (kept the original ones) class-admin and class-compatibilty-plugins with those on github but got error on class-admin when loging in to wordpress. Are there any instructions on how to apply the dev version?

On my site, when I saved, the visual editor widget removed 1 of the ending </p> tags (it kept the opening tag). The only way to keep it was to use the text widget. I didn’t see any dev version on the github link. I’m using Black Studio Tinymce version 2.1.6, WP version 4.0. and the latest Genesis theme version.

To try the dev version:
1. Unistall your current Black Studio TinyMCE Widget version from plugins admin (don’t worry, no data will be lost)
2. Go to Github repo and click the “Download ZIP” button on the right.
3. Go to your plugins page => Add New => Upload Plugin and the upload the previously downloaded file and activate it.

That fixed my problem. Thanks for the quick action. This is a great plugin.

I have uninstalled 2.1.6. and installed the github repo version as mentioned but it doesn’t seem to make any difference.

@daniel009 I’m glad that the dev version fixed your issue, it will be released soon.

@axtonc Does your issue occur only in widgets editor or even in posts/pages editor? Please take some comparative test by performing the same actions on those two scenarios. Also, please start a new thread, as this has been marked as resolved. Moreover please provide very detailed steps to reproduce your issue (i.e. see the 7th and 10th message of this other topic, which has a very similar subject).

If I scrap the the widgets that were originally causing the problem and start again from scratch using the new version then the problem seems to be solved – however note that if text from a “corrupt” widget is copied and pasted to a new one then it still seems to have the problem. However I can live with that as its not likely to occur. Consider this thread resolved for me now. Thanks – it’s a great tool.

@axtonc Could you provide a sample of the HTML source code that is giving you problems? (If it’s large, please use pastebin).

Sorry but I deleted the widgets that were giving the problem and have not been able to recreate it since implementing your fix.
