That Typo3 packs all paragraphs into p-tags is great. However, it does so with blank lines, so in the output code snippets like <p> </p> disfigure the text.
Using
tt_content.stdWrap.dataWrap >
lib.parseFunc_RTE.nonTypoTagStdWrap.encapsLines>
in the typo Setup prevents these wrapping of paragraphs, even the empty ones.
But what can I do if empty lines are not to be wrapped, but those with content should already be wrapped?
Thank you in advance!

I'd like to keep some space between some html blocks in my code. However, Prettier wants to remove these lines. Is there a Prettier setting to keep this spacing?
Before prettier:
<template>
<form>
<div>First block</div>
<div>Second block</div>
</form>
</template>
After pretter:
<template>
<form>
<div>First block</div>
<div>Second block</div>
</form>
</template>
There is no way to actually do this, you might only use tricks.
First trick
Ignore completely the file (or file extensions) but you will not benefit from Prettier
Second trick
Deny Prettier to trim whitespaces
trim_trailing_whitespace = true
And add whitespaces in line breaks.
Once again this is not an effective solution, it's only a trick.
An issue has been closed by devs
adding and removing line breaks is core to prettier's formatting algorithm
According to #suchipi , Github member:
adding and removing line breaks is core to prettier's formatting algorithm, so preserving them isn't consistently possible.
As a work around you can try:
setting very short printWidth
put // prettier-ignore comment above your code.

Is there a config in prettier to keep line breaks?
Don't know if this will work as intended however, in the document for Prettier, there is a section for "Empty Line" that says;
"Prettier collapses multiple blank lines into a single blank line."
By this, you may want to add a double blank line instead of a single blank, where you are wanting a space to be, as it should compress it into a single line rather than removing it all together.
Take a look on this thread https://github.com/prettier/prettier/issues/4870, it's pretty good explaining why this is still non-existing feature.
There is no simple way for formatter to determine what to keep and what to remove.
So the only practical things you can do
Add comments to disable formatting in certain places (which is bad idea and never work well, dev gents become annoyed with this super quickly).
Accept that empty lines would be collapsed (still bad, because of poor readability)
Disable this feature and maintain empty lines yourself (alternative editor). This one "arguably" seems to me the simplest (best) option in a long-term.
We have a SAPUI5 timeline control, where we are showing the comments coming from server.
The issue is, if the comments contain a newline \n, then the Timeline control is not able to display the text in newline. Instead, it introduces space wherever \n is present.
We have tried formatting \n to unicode character also but that also didn't worked. Timeline control aggregates TimelineItem.
The control we are using is: https://ui5.sap.com/#/api/sap.suite.ui.commons.TimelineItem

I inspected your example and came up with the following solution.
Since the text is embedded in a <span>, all unnecessary whitespace will be trimmed. What you can do is telling the span (via CSS) that it should display the whitespace anyway.
If you don't have a CSS file in your project yet, create one. Then add the following lines
div.sapSuiteUiCommonsTimelineItemShellBody>span {
white-space: pre;
}
This should do the trick.
JSBin: https://jsbin.com/feladeneso/1/edit?html,output
If you inspect the rendered element, you will see it actually put in the break:
<span id="__item0-realtext">x
y</span>
...but did not convert it to a <br/> tag. You cannot add the tag yourself since it will be escaped, either. Maybe you can try to override the renderer, and convert any line breaks to html breaks
I'm using TinyMce textarea editor and have a problem. As you probably know Tinymce transforms a standard html textarea into a rich text editor.
On our 'edit listing' page we call up some text from our db for the user to edit (previously in a standard textarea, now in the tinymce textarea.
Previously the standard textarea would preserve linebreaks and the user would get several paragraphs of text in the text area, now with tinyMCE they get a huge chunk of text with no linebreaks. (I have pasted an example of an entry in our db below - as you can see it has line breaks in it by tinymce seems to be ignoring them when it displays them in the editor).
Just to clarify my issue is now that tinymce is stripping something when I submit the form, it's that when I pull text (that contains line breaks) from the db and populate the tinymce textarea with that data (for the user to edit) in the tinymce textarea - the text appears (in the tinymce textarea) as one massive chunk of text with my paragraphs (whereas in a standard textarea it is nicely formatted with linebreaks)
Any help on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated - do I need to use some sort of populate() type function to put the text in, or maybe I need to replace all the linebreaks with a different special character that tinyMCE will recognise as a line break and preserve?..
Thanks in advance.
Nick
example from db:
Here is line one
Here is line two
And here is line three
Which appears in tinymce as:
Here is line one Here is line two And here is line three
I faced a similar a problem, a while back and had questions just like yours. Also I finally ended up on SE just like you.
Anyway, I think I have the solution to your problem. If you are using PHP as your server side language, then you should use nl2br() PHP function.
Suppose you have stored your content fetched from the database in a php variable. Something like this:
$content = $row['content'];
Now when displaying it on to your screen, use the nl2br() function.
echo nl2br("<p>".$content."<p>");
Now, this part inside () depends on how you want to output the data. And I will leave it to you to figure that part out.
Hope this helps.
I have nicEdit implemented in the backend for uploading news items, and in the frontend each newsitem has a square in front of the beginning of the text body (image attached). This only occurs in the first paragraph of the text.
Due to the paragraph tags added by nicEdit, the text is displayed on a different line than the square. I have searched in the nicEdit docs and in previously answered questions on here but could not find a solution. Is there any way to change the paragraph formatting in nicEdit to use br at the end of a paragraph instead of having it wrap the text with p tags? Or if not, to have Nicdit automatically add the square to the beginning of each text?
Thank you in advance for any help!!

Edit: Turns out the p tags were not caused by the nicedit but by the users copy-pasting the articles. I have used this to remove formatting from pasted text, but the tags are still there (it seems to only remove font properties).
As a temporary fix I have added the square to the nicedit wysiwyg as initial text, so that it is sent to the db along with the rest of the text and inside the same paragraph.
I realized there's a line in the code you modified that specifies all the unwanted tags. You should add the paragraph there.
Search for
/* remove undwanted tags */
newSnippet = newSnippet.replace(/<(div|span|style|meta|link){1}.*?>/gi,'');
in the nicEditorInstance class, and change it to
/* remove undwanted tags */
newSnippet = newSnippet.replace(/<(div|p|span|style|meta|link){1}.*?>/gi,'');
Notice the "p" has been added. That will prevent nicEdit to wrap the paragraphs in tags.
We are using Plone 4.1.3 and the default TinyMCE editor. When we press the Enter key in TinyMCE, it produces a double line spacing instead of single line. We found a few similar questions and answers on this issue in the forum but don't know and cannot find the TinyMCE configuration file to modify to make line break into single line spacing. There is also nothing in Site Setup or ZMI to configure this for TinyMCE.
We found this the forum but it is not pertaining to plone.

CSS. These are just paragraph elements (<p> tags). -- style them!

As sdupton pointed out, this is indeed on purpose; enter is supposed to be a paragraph break, and behaves the same way in applications like Word. You can insert line breaks by shift-enter, but it's not encouraged to do that on the web, since text flows differently depending on font size and window size (and OS!).
If you want paragraphs to have less spacing, use CSS to reduce the margin/padding.
