As far I can see, line breaks in text areas are rendered only if the user types <br>. How can I tell them to use <br>? If I type this sentece in the Help text field: Type <br> for line breaks the brake disappeares in the backend. See screenshot.

@szopos I have run into this issue as well. You have the option of using the rich text block which looks almost same as textarea but with bold and italics options (there is also a full blown wysiwyg editor but you probably don’t want to hand that off to clients as it becomes a formatting nightmare). The rich text block transfers line breaks and requires no change from the user side.

In the latest update, it is possible. Add this help text:

Type <br> for line breaks.
