break disappears in text area

    I’ve got a text area where I regularly add short information (admin side); each line of information should appear on a new line, but all text is put in one large text block. html breaks don’t work either.

    Should I convert the field to a rich text field, or can I solve this by using specific css?

    Rich text field will fix it, but line breaks are supposed to work in text-area fields.

    You can make the text-area show the line breaks by adding a custom CSS rule (in the plugin settings Custom CSS) like this:

    .text-area .textarea {
    white-space: pre-wrap;
}

    Thanks for helping out. I added 

    .textarea {
    white-space: pre-wrap;
}

    as adding the whole code did not work.
    Looks good now.
