Add Tooltips to Text Field Additional Options so they are more helpful

[raman2572]

Describe the bug
I am using WYSIWYG (Visual Editor) as Field Type. Enter key doesn't work to break lines which is itself a bug.

I found a workaround by using
tag in the html of field. It works but once I update data in the custom post, the
tag is escaped from the post.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Create a pod
2. Create a custom field
3. Select WYSIWYG (Visual Editor)
4. Write a sentence and use
   to break a line
5. Publish
6. Come back to the post and edit any value
7. 
   tags will be escaped

Expected behavior
"Enter" should work make a break a in the sentence and
tag shouldn't be escaped.

TaskList for PR

Add the Tooltips to the options in the Additional Options tab for all the textarea style fields (Plain Paragraph and WYSIWYG, Code doesn't have them):

• Enable oEmbed?
• Enable wptexturize? [Default - Checked]
• Enable convert_chars? [Default - Checked]
• Enable wpautop? [Default - Checked]
• Allow Shortcodes?

Use https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wptexturize/ for links in Tooltips instead of Codex. Indicate in tooltip that the item is ON by default for those that are defaults.

@raman2572 What do you have configured in Additional Options for the WYSIWYG field?

Enter will create a paragraph and a shift-enter will create a 'break' return. This is working as expected. If you type
in the non-visual editor, this will be interpreted as a soft break and it's immediately translated to that if you flip back to the visual editor. I'm testing this in both the regular WordPress Editor and the TinyMCE editor and they're both working identically, including adding the breaks that should be added.

Can you perhaps provide a screen recording showing the issue you're having?

[raman2572]

Hello Jim,
I am using default Wordpress editor. Output options are unchecked.

[raman2572]

Thanks it’s working after enabling wpautop

[quasel]

That's great - just to make sure there isn't a bug hiding - the default settings normally are

Should we add a warning what happens if they are unchecked?

[raman2572]

Yes there should be warning or a button to make default settings.

[jimtrue]

Actually, tooltips with links to the Codex for each of those would probably be adequate.

[GaryJones]

Please consider linking to the Developer reference (e.g. https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/wptexturize/) instead of the Codex.

[jimtrue]

Agreed, @GaryJones though not sure why WordPress doesn't do that itself, y'know?
