Event descriptions do not display any formatting.<\/p>\n

You may view the calendar at:<\/p>\n

http:\/\/blacklabgallery.com\/events\/<\/p>\n

Take for example January 19th. Upon hovering, you can see the excerpt is stripped of it’s tags (<\/p>\n

,, etc).<\/p>\n

Out of all the display views, the single-event is the only one that displays properly.

I understand this is a wordpress “feature” to strip excerpts, and that Modern Tribe has done this for compatibility, however, I don’t understand why you have not given the users the choice to customize this functionality. It is a very basic request to want a line break in an excerpt, yet it is impossible without various hacks\/workarounds which I have not been able to figure out.<\/p>\n

The excerpts are formatted because that’s how I want them to display. Please tell me how to fix this issue, and please tell me that there are developments in the works to solve this problem for users. I have a very hard time believing that users aren’t frustrated by the fact that they can’t have bold text or line breaks in their event descriptions.<\/p>\n

Thank you for your support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1417247","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nEvent description is stripped of it's formatting. -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/event-description-is-stripped-of-its-formatting\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Event description is stripped of it's formatting. -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Event descriptions do not display any formatting.
