 * Hi there,
 * The text area doesn’t break any lines pressing the enter key for a new line.
   
   How can I resolve this? it’s quite urgent.

 * Hi, can you send the link of the page you’re experiencing issue with?
    By default,
   it should work. I just checked and the text area breaks the line by default when
   pressing the enter key.

 * Hi [@xfinallight](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xfinallight/)
 * I hope you’re well today!
 * Do you mean that it doesn’t do it when you are typing in the field or that even
   though it does work in the field, it’s not reflected in submission/notification?
 * If it’s the first case then it would mean that “something” (may it be other plugin
   or some custom code or some JS optimization option on site) is causing conflict
   there.
 * Could you share a link to the page with the form so we could take a look and 
   check it, please?
 * Best regards,
    Adam

 * Hi there, sorry for the late reply i’ve been quite busy.
    here is the link to
   my form: [https://roldeco.nl/contact/](https://roldeco.nl/contact/)
 * i can break lines in the text area on the form itself.
    but indeed it doesn’t
   reflect this in the email that i receive.

 * Hi [@xfinallight](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xfinallight/)
 * Thanks for response and additional explanation.
 * If it’s working “visually” on front-end but not in e-mail then it’s a known issue.
   It’s a side-effect of specific XSS protection (via input sanitization) that was
   added to the plugin some time ago.
 * Our developers are already working on a fix for this and if everything goes fine
   and the fix passes QA tests it should be included in upcoming (or the nearest
   one after it) release of Forminator.
 * Kind regards,
    Adam
