 * Hi
 * I would like to add a custom attribute where I can also enter newlines and longer
   text. A textarea basically. Is that possible?
    What I’m trying to do is to have
   a summary and a full text, but I do not want the summary to be repeated when 
   viewing full text so #_EXCERPT is not really appropriate.
 * What are my options?
 * Thanks

 * You could use a filter to strip away the excerpt text …
    But, it is not that 
   difficult to convert attributes to be textareas:
