    Hello,
    there is a problem with the rich_text field
    it doesn;t have the behaviour if the wp editor, when i write on the next line, it doesn’t reprodice in front (so it doesn’t put a br tag)
    and if i put a br manually it disappear when i update something
    so i add to put texareas instead

    Great it works!
    But one thing i don’t understand is that if i don’t want to have wpautop for ex, and want to have a <br> tag to go to the next line, the br is not kept, so it makes the rich_text editor very difficult to use without applying these filters

    Hi, I have the same problem. Impossible to have a Return to the line in custom field rich text.   or <Br/> (like in default wysiwyg WP).
    Do you have a solution, or an update with carbon field ?

    Paragraphs and line breaks are saved in the exact same way as the normal WordPress editor does. The difference being that when outputting, WordPress passes the content through a number of filters which prepare the content for display (the_content).

    The simplest way to have line breaks and paragraphs added when you display content from a rich text field is to use wpautop() together with do_shortcode() like this:

    <?php echo wpautop( do_shortcode( carbon_get_the_post_meta( 'your_richtext_field_name_here' ) ) ); ?>

    do_shortcode() parses all shortcodes while wpautop() handles linebreaks and paragraphs.

    You can also do apply_filters( 'the_content', carbon_get_the_post_meta( 'your_richtext_field_name_here' ) ) to apply the full list of filters over the content, however this is not recommended as it may have undesired effects and plugins may interfere with normal usage.
