    Hi,

    The <textarea> input elements are not displaying in the Admin > Edit or Admin > Add Participant pages. Below is some html code:

    <h3>Personal Info</h3>
<table class="form-table">
	<tr class="text-line">
   		<th>Contact Permission</th>
		<td id="pdb_contact_permission" >
			<input type="text" name="contact_permission" class=" regular-text"   value="" />
			<span class="helptext">may we contact you? If so, what is the best way?</span>
		</td>
	 </tr>
	<tr class="text-field">
    	<th>Resources Offered</th>
		<td id="pdb_resources" >
			<!-- ***** <textarea></textarea> input element missing here ***** -->
			<span class="helptext">how are you willing to help?</span>
		</td>
	 </tr>
</table>
<h3>Administrative Info</h3>
<table class="form-table">
	<tr class="text-field">
    	<th>Donations Made</th>
		<td id="pdb_donations" >
			<!-- ***** <textarea></textarea> input element missing here ***** -->
		</td>
	</tr>
	<tr class="text-field">
    	<th>Time Volunteered</th>
		<td id="pdb_volunteered" >
			<!-- ***** <textarea></textarea> input element missing here ***** -->
			<span class="helptext">how much time they have volunteered</span>
		</td>
	 </tr>
</table>

    I have already deactivated and reactivated the plugin.
    Waiting to hear back.

    Thanks for your prompt attention.

    incaman,

    Go back to the “manage database fields” page and make sure those fields are set to the correct field type (text-area, probably) and then save. That should fix it.

    Yup, that did it.

    Thank you sir!

    I don’t know if my problem is the same but in my textfields (output) the tags are showing… <p> < br /> etc.

    It must be in HTML

    kina60 – you need to go into the record admin and select-all/cut from ‘Visual’ tab and paste into the ‘HTML’ tab, then go back to the ‘Visual’ tab and save.

    If you don’t want your participants to format their text, choose ‘Text area’ rather than ‘Rich text’.

    Hope this helps, Em

    bw3em: Didn ‘t understand you, but this is my solution:

    Plugin admin:
    > manage database fields
    > form element (tab/header), in dropdown choose: ‘rich text’ (was ‘textarea’)

    Thanks a lot, anyway!
    xnau: tnks for this helpfull plugin!
