Hi, has anybody else having issues where you cant put carriage returns (enter) in text field like this one? I cant seem to get my messages to format correctly anymore so its just one long string of test. Thanks, Sean
 
So far, everything
seems to be going
along fairly normal! :wavey:

Geez! Haven't heard the phrase "Carriage Return" in ages! You wouldn't have been a typewriter mechanic, would you? Back in the early 70's I worked

for Singer Business Machines (Friden Division) on their old Flexowriters!

No but I am a Linux engineer. We have to know the difference between Carriage Return, Newline and Enter as they are all similiar but different :) But I think I may of figured it out; I switched to a different editor in my profile and it seems to be behaving better.

Yeah the whole thing is messed up. Its just one long string of text. Even when pressing enter for a new line < like this one > it just follows on from the previous sentence. Which makes the whole thing look like a complete mess (this is also on another row. 3rd to be exact). Enter passed 4th row, I'm now on row 5. Lets see what happens (row 6).Row 7 is simply to state I can't also use emoji's.
 
Try changing your editor. You are using the WYSIWYG editor. Try the Standard Editor or the Source mode Editor.

If you are having an issue with just the WYSIWYG editor then the issue is your browser, plugin in the browser or your security software.

Next try a different browser. See if it has the same issue.
