    How can I add a line break to a Paragraph Text default value?
    It works for the placeholder using html entities for carriage return and line feed ( ).

    However it doesn’t work for the default value. Is there any workaround for this?

    Hi @randomengineer,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    Currently, it is not possible to use HTML tags or HTML entities in a field’s Default Value option. Because of this, we don’t have a built-in way to allow a line break in a Paragraph Text default value.

    As a workaround, you could use the Placeholder Text field with HTML entities (screenshot). Here’s a screenshot of the result.

    Or the field description with HTML tags (like <br>).

    I’ve made a note of the feature request, and we’ll keep it on our radar as we plan out our roadmap for the future.

    Thank you for the suggestion!

    Thank you for your response; however placeholder text is not a workaround. As I am sure you understand, placeholder text is not editable by the user who is filling the form, nor does it populate the field, it simply displays an example. This critical deficiency makes the plugin unusable for many users.
