Is there some markdown or BBcode I can use to maintain line breaks in the text fields in the database?
I’m trying to store the body of an email on many different rewards users can earn. When they earn a reward I want to send a confirmation email specific to that reward (instead of building a different action for each email and then try to match up each action to each reward).
I can use dynamic data to insert the body of the email and most of the markdown works (bold, italics, centered, font).
What doesn’t work is that all of the line breaks are removed. So the email body just runs together in one long line.
I tried [br][/br] and [new_line] and [line_break] but they didn’t work.
Well that’s weird. I added [li][/li] around sentences to turn them into “list items” and it did turn them into an indented list, but it also did a bunch of other random stuff.

Nevermind, I just tried. I am guessing Bubble has custom BBCode implemented and/or removed the [br] functionality. Have you tried using a multiline input instead of rich text? (to see if you can still see line breaks)
As annoying as it might be, one solution is to save the different paragraphs as separate database things and then string them together in the ‘body’ forcing line breaks there instead.
