How we doing? hows business? happy new year!

I checked some other threads about similar stuff. Nothing turned up that works

Just looking to do a double space after a period in html text editor. It only does one space no matter how many spaces you put.

I tried the enter button already.

Thanks!

ya it’s actually in contact form 7’s html.

That code works to create space in between paragraphs but i can’t get it to work in a sentence. It just disables my form from being visible basically.

Maybe theres another way?

thanks!

[Scott MSpectator]

maybe i need to put it in quotes or something?

<p>Your Message<br />
[checkbox checkbox-608 “choose me”;  “choose me” “choose me ” “and choose me?”]</p>

Hi Scott

Are you adding the html code within the shortcode??

Would you advise exactly where in the above you want the dbl space..

If it is within the [checkbox shortcode] that is beyond my ability 🙂

Cheers

hi sorry for the bold.
ya it needs to go after each “choose me”

It should look like this….

[checkbox checkbox-608 “choose me” “choose me” “choose me ” “and choose me?”]</p>

But it only comes on with one space when i publish it and look at it live

Thanks!!

[Scott MSpectator]

hahah even when i do it here, it only shows one space

I actually put two spaces before i submitted my last post

thanks

Hi Scott

If I were to use full stops where you want dbl spaces it would be like this
I note you have a close paragraph </p> tag but not an open paragraph tag

[checkbox checkbox-608 “choose me..” “choose me..” “choose me..” “and choose me?..”]</p>

<p>[checkbox checkbox-608 “choose me  ” “choose me  ” “choose me  ” “and choose me?  ”]</p>

I’m not sure it will work, as I said within a shortcode is beyond me..

hi ya the open tag is there. I just didn’t copy and paste it here.

Theres gotta be a way to double space that stuff.

It’s not a problem in contact form 7 because we can’t even double space it in this forum. Any ideas staff? If you can do it here, then it should work in the plugin.

Thanks

Dbl Spacing  is  possible  here  I'm  not  sure  ?

Dbl Spacing  is  possible  here  I’m  not  sure  ?

I believe the issue is adding it within a shortcode..

Rick M

[Scott MSpectator]

ya i think so too
thanks for the help

anyone else?

just so you don’t have to read again, we are looking to put a double space after a period, inside of a short code, inside of html text editor.

Thanks!

Hi Scott

I have had a play around and I think you could try adding the following to your Child Theme style.css file

.wpcf7 .checkbox-655 .wpcf7-list-item  {
   margin-right: 20px;
}

Where checkbox-xxx is your checkbox number and number of pixels meets your spacing requirements.

This took me some time to work out, and it targets individual checkbox shortcodes..

Hope this works for you!!

Hi Rick M,

Thanks for helping out and for your suggestions!

Hi Scott,

Code added within a shortcode may be altered depending on the shortcode you are using. Unfortunately, shortcode customizations and custom development are beyond our scope of support.

The CSS suggestion provided by Rick M would be the direction we would take as well. Do let us know if it worked for you. Thanks!
