Ability to put line-breaks in the description #57

Is there a way to have line-breaks in the overlay description text?

PeterUpfold commented 11 years ago

Not at the current time, but this is something that would seem appropriate to add for 1.2. Thanks for the feedback!

Just to tack onto this... @ChiefBreakeverything: how do you envision the line breaks working? Do you want direct HTML access (e.g. inserting the <br>s yourself?) or would you expect the textarea to convert natural linebreaks to the HTML form (nl2br style)?

Is this also an opportunity to discuss integration of some kind of simple WYSIWYG editor via wp_editor? Would love your thoughts @PeterUpfold

ChiefBreakeverything commented 11 years ago

I was thinking direct HTML access, although either solution would be great.

I'd love to implement basic wp_editor support, supporting (at least) bold, italics, underline. Because of how the sliders work, links and multimedia should be disabled. Retargeting this toward 2.0, when we will store things in post_meta (in theory :) and it will be easier to implement this than with serialized nonsense.
