How can you STOP WP from cutting my Paragraphs?

Suggestion:
Add a second class with the post ID so you get "column-left postid-123"

There are also plugins that will split a post into multiple columns, worth look and a Google.

You can also code the structural markup into your template, and then use the <!–next page–> feature to break the content up in the WYSIWYG editor.

<div class="column-left">
   <?php the_content;?>
</div>
<div class="column-left">
    <?php global $page; $page = 2; the_content(); ?>
</div>

You can get the page break button back with this:

add_filter( 'mce_buttons', 'my_wysiwyg_editor' );

function my_wysiwyg_editor($mce_buttons) {
    $pos = array_search( 'wp_more', $mce_buttons, true );
    if ($pos !== false) {
        $tmp_buttons = array_slice( $mce_buttons, 0, $pos+1 );
        $tmp_buttons[] = 'wp_page';
        $mce_buttons = array_merge( $tmp_buttons, array_slice( $mce_buttons, $pos+1 ) );
    }
    return $mce_buttons;
}

@ Digital Raindrops,

Thanks for your help,
But please no plugins for me on this i’ve tried a few and most of them made a mess of the source-code and some added multiple input content fields to your admin-screen. ?really what if you would like 6 column? X => six content input fields! ??

+ If i can teach a client to type shortcodes like this: [column=1] .. [/column] i think i’m at the same level as teaching him real HTML. It’s all about understanding open and closing tags.

It has to be added by a single button like how MS WORDS or MS Office works.
Just Select (highlight) some text and push a button to move content to the left or right-side of the webpage.

@ Jackson,

Hmm sounds interesting!
But this would leave me with a few empty <divs> in my source code when he just uses only one column. True?

Like what if i say you can max. make 6 columns and he would only use one or two of the six this would give me 4 other empty div styles in my source code.

I know i’m asking much but i really would just like to know WHY aren’t the P tags visible in the HTML editor?

Example:
If i’m working in Visual editor (i was just trying a few minutes ago)
And i start typing: Hello this is my title.

After that i select or highlight, Hello this is my title and after that i push the Format > Heading 2 option. That would make it bold and when i take a sneak peak at the HTML editor i see that WordPress has added <h2>Hello this is my title</h2>
to the editor.

GREAT feature!

Why can’t i do the same with the Paragraph tag?
Just wrap some text and add a P tag to it.

Why does WordPress waits till you push on publish to add this P tags.
If WordPress would just added ‘LIVE’ in the editor P tags like it does with all other codes i think i would solve my problem here.

Because if All content was closed in <p> blabla </p> and i would select or highlighted lets say 3 paragraphs, WordPress would easily wrap all those 3 paragraphs into a Style > Div = class=”column-left”.

You could use the global $pages to determine the total number and output your code accordingly to avoid empty <div>s

Okay,

Let me go and search if i can find more info on the <!– next page –> function in combination wit multiple contents.

Thanks.

I’ve found it!

Just like you said!
some times i’m just thinking too big out of the box.

For people who would like a tutorial while doing this.

Thanks again.
