FS#2081 - UI for adding comment while editing task doesn't use HTML editor
While editing an existing task, there’s a “+” button you can click to add a comment as part of the edit. Unfortunately this is just a plaintext box instead of the HTML editor used everywhere else, so it’s impossible to get proper line/paragraph breaks if a comment is entered with this UI.
This problem makes it necessary to edit a task and add a comment as two separate steps, whereas in 0.9.9.6 it was possible to do them together in one step.
Note that this is the case with syntax_plugin=”none”. I don’t know if it’s also a problem when using other values for that setting.

I added the feature because it wasn't available in 0.9.9.7 and there was a user request to add it.
I didn't know it exists in 0.9.9.6.
I choosed the simple textarea to not distract the user too much with formatting options when editing a task and give them at least the posssibility to add a short comment in the same step.
It is IMHO no problem for dokuwiki syntax plugin (which I personally prefer over the fullhtml ckeditor).
But I understand it is not optimal for flyspray installs with html/ckeditor.
Ok thanks, I understand. Unfortunately dokuwiki didn't work for me (got PHP errors) so I don't use it.
For a Flyspray installation that doesn't use dokuwiki, using a simple textarea results in broken behavior. Please imagine entering your comment here and then you find that it all ends up on one line.
Paragraphs are nice. :)
Could you please give info of which errors you got with dokuwiki and your php version?
(A switch back from fullhtml-syntax to dokuwiki is not simple possible if you still have tasks/comments in productive environment, so test please with fresh install)
TODO: For html/ckeditor installs adding the p-tags when saving the edittask-form can be a quick solution:
if( $conf['general']['syntax_plugin']=='none' || $conf['general']['syntax_plugin']==''){ #htmlify edittask comment textarea }I've created a new task
FS#2088with the info on the error I got with dokuwiki.
