Editor Modal Textarea?

Editor Modal Textarea?

DNSinSCDNSinSC Posts: 19Questions: 3Answers: 0

I am using Editor to edit fields that may contain a paragraph or more of text, but the modal that pops up on edit is a single-line text box just big enough for a name. I would like to change the single-line text box in the modal to a multi-line text area when editing. Is this possible? I am using bootstrap 5 styling if that matters...

Thank you!

    See the Field type plugins page. You can use CKEditor, Quill or TinyMCE. I've used Quill for my projects. Choose the one that matches the features you need.

    Just to add to that, if you just want plain text, use the built in textarea field type.

    If however, you want rich text editing, then yes, you'll need a plug-in such as those that Kevin suggests.

    Thank you, Alan! I searched 19 different ways but didn't find it. Adding "type": "textarea" to the js worked for plain text.

    Thank you, Kthornren! I decided to get fancy and try Quill, which looks great, but the modal window is squashed and small. The Quill toolbar spans three lines, and you cannot drag to enlarge. How did you overcome this?
