Zapier text import - formatting issue

Publishing help Editor
1

I’m passing text from Zapier to Webflow. It’s basically text thats formate to it’s own line by an enter (line break) like this:

line1
line2

35%20AM
35%20AM2118×500 33.7 KB

^ text correctly formatted in the editor

17%20AM
17%20AM1768×768 121 KB

^ same text in the designer (formats all into one line)

In the CMS post editor the line breaks shows up, but in the designer it gets displayed as one single line of text. However, IF I mess with the text in the editor, for example, turn it all to header 1 and then turn it back to a paragraph, then the formatting gets applied in the designer as well.

This is really a big roadblock for me any help would be truly appreciated.

Hi @MadeByMarius - Welcome to the forums.

I believe your issue is the CR / LF are not automatically converted to paragraphs or line breaks on import and then are stripped out. The import process accepts basic HTML, so you should format the text as desired before importing it.

Hope this helps.
