I have a "CPT" editor with quite a few check box fields.

When I create a template the display is single line entries with a "pipe" separator. The client request if we can display the list as a bullited list ie vertically down listed.

Is that possible as the default is a single line and we want a downward list

Hi Andre,

I'm not sure I understand fully. Are you able to provide me with a screenshot or example of the shortcode that you're using and what is being displayed on the frontend as well as the data in the field on the backend.

You mentioned that this is a single line field. Is it a repeating field ?

Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane
I am attaching a screen print of the profile. Looking specifically at the Skills field. There are various entries for that field. This was captured on a post form with the options shown as tick boxes.

In the profile, I use the fields and text box to connect it to the skill data in the CPT, with those settings. Obviously, it offers me to use separators ie pipe in this case. However, the client would prefer it not next to each other but under each other like in an "un-numbered or numbered list". I have not seen anywhere an option to change the way the info is presented on the front end.

I hope this clarifies the situation.

Hi Andre,

It would be difficult to achieve this however you can add a line break tag to break the items into multiple lines.

This should get the items to break into multiple lines.

Thanks,
