@Donna: Can you show me what this looks like on your site via screenshots? http://imageshack.us

The website one doesn't make sense because the demo site does do this correctly, so perhaps it has to do with the data.

The HTML in description though is probably something we could look at. By default, WP doesn't recognize it as such when entered into the editor.

I have the same problem. The text looks too poor without html options. Is there any way to modify field type???

Hi Cherished,

If it's just styling the text fields as a whole, you can use custom css to do that or play with your theme a bit. Not sure what you mean by “modify field type” to fix that…can you explain?

Thank you, sorry if I've put a misunderstanding. I would like to have an option of customizing text to include html tags and tags, supported by other plugins I have installed, for example WP UI – Tabs, accordions or google map, which I cannot do, because “Description” field is “textarea”, which oly supports ,,

    and other simple html formatting. So i was wondering if there's any option to make “Description” support rich text text formatting and custom html?

I'll have to look into what it would take to allow this. I know it's possible, just not sure of the effort involved.

Actually, looking at my internal bug list, I see my developer may be working on a solution on this. I'll keep you apprised.
