Using Text Area field in Welcome E-Mail Template?

[CrimsonGT]

I currently have added a Text Area to our Dedicated Server products where we can list out each usable IP that the machine has. However, when I include this field in the Welcome E-Mail Template that I made, despite each IP being on a different line, it lists them horizontally making it unreadable.

 

How can I fix this to force them to list vertically as they are shown in the Text Area on the Product Page?

This is only a guess ok, but i think the text area is trimmed after input, i have not found it yet but i think that is the case, not sure what to do, i would like to learn this also.

Yeah, I am assuming some sort of Line Break may be necessary, but I would like to avoid it if possible to keep the field clean in the product.

if your text areas are displaying side by side you can do this.

 

<div><textarea></textarea></div>
<div><textarea></textarea></div>
<div><textarea></textarea></div>

 

Div tags by default stack up, also unless you style the divs then they will not be apparent. To make some spacing add a small margin, either to the element itself, style="margin: 5px 0;" (5px top and bottom, 0px sides) or give them a class and add a css block in the "mail" tab of the general settings
