Enable text formatting in the OJS site About field

Hi,

The About field of the OJS 3.1.x site doesn’t support text formatting and is plain text only. On the contrary a single journal About field support formatting as well as HTML code editing.

I think it makes sense to have consistent behavior and as far as I understand it should not be difficult to support it.

HI @primozs,

The “About the Journal” field should support rich text – see this screenshot:

Hi @asmecher,

Sorry, not clear enough. I am not talking about the journal about, but site about:
05

Best regards, Primož

Hi @primozs,

Thanks, I understand now! I’ve filed this for attention at Enable rich text in site-wide "About" field · Issue #5844 · pkp/pkp-lib · GitHub.
