Hi.
Trying to understand the line break/paragraph thing.
I´m developing a forum and my goal is to have the enter key making a line break and not a paragraph, just like in other editors.
Users are not going to use the shift+enter to make a line break.
Can this be done in wpforo/wordpress?
I mean pressing enter creates a line break, and if i want a paragraph then shift+enter; the opossite of whats now.
Thanks.
There are the following keys in the wpForo:
- Shift+Enter adds a line break (<br/>).
- Pressing Enter creates a paragraph (<p></p>), resulting in two line breaks
There is no option to customize these key behaviors.
Hi and thanks for the clarification.
It`s a real "deal breaker" in a forum, who`s gonna use shift+enter to do a line break?
Everyone just presses enter and that`s it.
There are no plugins and/or css code to change that behavior?
I´m very sorry to read that.
Anyway thanks for your input.
Best regards.

if this is so important to you, you can deactivate the p tag for new lines and activate the br instead
edit > wpforo > classes > Template.php
search for (topic + post)
'wpautop' => false,
and add these 2 lines of code below it
'force_br_newlines' => true, 'force_p_newlines' => false,
Tutrix, thank you it works.
The solution provided by Tutrix is correct. However, please note that you'll need to make these changes each time wpForo is updated. To ensure update safety, please use the following hook-code:
add_filter( 'wpforo_editor_settings', function($editor_settings){
$editor_settings['tinymce']['force_br_newlines'] = true;
$editor_settings['tinymce']['force_p_newlines'] = false;
return $editor_settings;
} );
