Displaying line breaks in text

    Hello ~

    I’m trying to figure out how to get line breaks in text (represented as “\n”) to be handled in the output. For example, the json contains value “description”:”Text line one. \n Text line two.”

    The shortcode displays the description output as:
    Text line one. Text line two.

    When it should be displayed as:
    Text line one.
    Text line two.

    How can I get \n to be recognized as a line break in the output?

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    if “\n” is in the JSON, the HTML would be “
    “.
    This kind of replacement is not in the plugin yet.
    I’ll have to think about that…

    HI Bernhard,

    Thanks, the JSON is generated from an app that allows users to enter text with line breaks, which I guess comes through as “\n” in the JSON.

    I’d be happy to donate again if you’re able to address this issue and the other topic I posted regarding “display on specific sub-loop item”, which is actually more important.

    Thanks again,
    Bruno

    New in Version 1.2.1:
    “{street:htmlAndLinefeed2htmlLinefeed}”: Same as “{street:html}” plus “\n”-Linefeeds are converted to HTML-Linebreak “
    ”

    Awesome!!! Thanks so much for this fix — it’s working perfectly and makes this extension even more useful. I really appreciate the work.

    As soon as you’ve have time to incorporate the other feature (targeting specific items in sub-loops) let me know and I’ll happily donate again.

    Take care,
    Bruno
