We’ve updated the Rich Text editor to give you a more consistent WYSIWYG experience. Your content now displays closer to what you see when editing. To use the updated editor, enable corrected rich text formatting in Settings. You can switch back at any time by clearing the checkbox.
What Changed
Previously, the editor added extra empty paragraph tags or <br/> tags when you created blank lines between text. This could make the underlying HTML messy and cause formatting issues.
The new editor simplifies this. When you add extra spacing, it now uses a cleaner approach and provides a more predictable output when toggling between Visual and HTML view.
Old editor HTML example
If you inserted an extra blank line, you might see:
And the HTML would read:
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p> <p><br/></p> <p>Ut enim ad minim veniam...</p>
New editor HTML example
With the new editor, an extra blank line is handled like this:
And the HTML would read:
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet...</p> <p> </p> <p>Ut enim ad minim veniam...</p>
While this still includes an empty paragraph, the editor now better preserves your intended spacing and reduces unexpected layout issues.
How to Enable Corrected Rich Text Formatting
- Open the Settings page.
- Under Rich text formatting, select the Opt-in to corrected rich text formatting option.
- Select Update.
To switch back to the old behavior, clear the checkbox and select Update.
What to Check
After enabling the new editor, review your existing content for any formatting changes. Check these areas:
- Rich text blocks
- Instructional text on lists
- Rich text content in forms and detail blocks
- Any additional custom rich text
