Re: [pmwiki-users] Annoying line break issues.

Well, thank you all for helping me figure out a solution to this, and sparking up a bit of discussion on this behavior. I think it should be easier and better documented for the htmlpnewline attribute or something. I appreciate this option being available, even if it's *not* the default, I just t

Re: [pmwiki-users] Annoying line break issues.

I didn't realize that legacy-compatibility is the main reason the default is nolinebreaks. That makes me think new wikis might well want to use linebreaks instead. But there is a problem: it's hard to write pages if you can't be sure what the default behavior is. Thus we all stick with nolinebre

Then use the recipe http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/AllGroupHeader and in the header place (:linebreaks:) (see also http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/TextFormattingRules) Simon On 12 August 2010 19:14, Paul Gupta wrote: > I don't need to m

Re: [pmwiki-users] Annoying line break issues.

Put in every group's header (:include Site.GroupHeader:), and put in Site.GroupHeader (:linebreaks:). I vaguely recall there is a variable you can use to set the group header in the configuration file, so you don't have to create a group header for each group, but then it may not be easy to ma

Re: [pmwiki-users] Annoying line break issues.

That's easy. Put (:linebreaks:) before the section of text that you want to observe newlines, and (:nolinebreaks:) after. (:linebreaks:) These lines will display on separate lines (:nolinebreaks:) and these lines will appear on a single line. Remember to use the (:nolinebreaks:) directive to ret

[pmwiki-users] Annoying line break issues.

I want to be able to just have a single enter instead of a "\\" create a newline. I think this is counter-intuitive, and I would most appreciate instructions on how to change or hack at this annoying behavior on my installation. Thank you, Paul Gupta
