    Hi, thanks for the great plugin. Only have 1 issue with it so far which is after exporting the csv, I added some paragraphs of text with line breaks under a custom field that it is a text area, and the re-importing the csv again. However, it seems like only the first paragraph of the text has been entered successfully but the rest of the text did not. Is it an issue of formatting in csv or something else? Thanks in advance.

    Do you mean the text area content is not populating or is fully populating but has formatting issues?

    And what are you using for multiple paragraphs? Like just a new line with Enter or some other type of data like blocks etc

    Thanks for your response. I’m using option + enter (on mac) to create the paragraphs on CSV. On windows it will be alt + enter. Content wise, the multiple paragraphs are not fully populated. Only the first paragraph got populated in the text area when I check ACF.

    The multilane / paragraph is something I am working on, there seems to be no correct way to store newlines / tabs in CSV and getting that from database is also not allowed as WordPress requires sanitization. Although the text should not truncate / be left out, the whole content should be appearing in the CSV in a single line, check as there is no newline multiple paragraphs might seem as one.

    Trying to make it work will keep you posted on updates.
