Only way I can think of to fix is to update then find the product file in File Manager then edit with php or html. Very slow process and double handling each product uploaded.

 

Please tell me I am an idiot and there is a quick way to do it.

what can I say... I am old school... either way it works - I do it on a daily basis... but if you would rather use <strong> than using <b> which gives you the same outcome... so be it... it's not that serious to me...

[lastblackjellybean]

You have opening <p> tags at the end of paragraphs, a needless <br> at the start, no closing tags, and <li>s without a <ol> or <ul>. This isn't old school, it's wrong. The <b> to <strong> was a minor point.

[burt]

You might well be old school and that is no bad thing. However thinking that <strong> and <b> give the same outcome is not right.

 

Accessibility and usability says they mean different things.

[lowkey704]

points noted... I don't have a degree in HTML... I just know how to make a site look good and work.

[lastblackjellybean]

With standards and accessibility becoming more and more important, it might be worth a refresher.

Is there a way to do this without html on the description? You know, edit some template file to break the paragraphs correctly.
