wysiwyg not saving paragraphs...

[jezthomp]

A wysiwyg within a meta box although saying the text is in a p tag, its not actually once its printed front end.

Bold tags work, as do others but the initial P tag does not.

Kind of making having the wysiwyg there a bit pointless?

Anyone else have this issue or just me?

Afaik, no issue. I guess you simply haven't attached the proper filter. Just use

echo apply_filter( 'the_content', get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), etc. ) );

Hi @jezthomp , I've just tested the <p> tag and don't see the problems.

Here's my content in the textarea box:

I'm a WP developer and a freelancer from Vietnam. <b>This is strong</b> <i>Cool</i><p>This is a paragraph</p><p>Another paragraph</p>

And I just display it using:

<?php echo get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_bio', true ); ?>

Guess we can close that as localized/invalid.

[rilwis]

OK, I close the issue now. @jezthomp if you still have this problem, please reopen the issue.

I'm seeing this too - If I add

to paragraphs while in [text] then save - the html comes through on the front end.

However when I re-open, the editor is still in [text] but the html has been converted to html hex. <p>
Viewing it in visual of course now shows my html of course.

It's as if [text] saves html, but when re-opened it converts any html to the respective HTML Entity Names. So saving it again just makes a mess.

Hi,

I've tested again with wysiwyg field type and don't see the problem (same as comments above). Here is how I input text (after save post, I see same result):

And how it looks in the frontend:

http://prntscr.com/6k74lj

The visual editor view:

The Text Editor view:

Front end and html:

Edits via text to add p tags and a comment:

This is what it looks like after saving:

This is how it renders:

The visual editor now looks like html:

If I make new edits to the text editor like this and save;

It shows up on the front end like this:

Oddly enough a quick workaround is to copy the html from the WYSIWYG editor
and paste it into the Text editor and then save.

Can you upload images again? Looks like Github doesn't import images from email.

[dwcouch]

I edited the previous message. Sorry about that.

I found a stack-exchange post with a similar issue: http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/94338/custom-editor-field-displaying-html-in-visual-editor

Can you show me the code to register meta boxes?

Oh, this is another plugin Taxonomy Meta. I will fix it later in this repo.

[dwcouch]

Oh geez. Sorry Tran. I forgot these were separate.
I've got both installed inside a custom theme.

Shall I repost on the TM repo?
