 * Hi! Plugin works, but Is there a way to add paragraphs or line spacing?
    When
   I add some tags like <p> or  the editor removes it after updating. And is there
   a way to adopt the h1/h2/h2 styles of the theme? Or where can I add them? I know
   some beginer questions…, sorry. Would be great to get an answer.

 * It looks like this might be a bug in the plugin. You can get paragraphs to show
   up by writing your code like this:
 * `<?php echo wpautop( $cat->description ); ?>`
 * I hope that’s helpful.

 * It’s not a bug, it is default WordPress behavior. For posts you receive paragraphs(
   and all the goodies, like shortcodes) only after you put the content through 
   a filter (that’s what the_content() tag does for you). You should filter the 
   raw $cat->description the same way, invoking the filter directly for example:
 * `<?php echo apply_filters('the_content', $cat->description); ?>`
 * Probably I should outline this explicitly in the docs.

 * [@jayarjo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jayarjo/), sorry for calling it
   a bug. You’re definitely right. I guess my thinking was that since the purpose
   of the plugin is to allow category descriptions to use rich text that the filters
   would be applied by default. That said, applying filters by default would make
   it harder to remove them in case someone didn’t want them added.
 * Clarifying this in the documentation should do the trick for most users.

 * If you output it via recommended way (using term_description()) you get the filtered
   category right away. Not sure why **[@will_verstehen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/will_verstehen/)**
   is trying to do it through the raw object field.
