Can I choose specific line breaks in Webflow CMS without using Richtext?

In Webflow CMS, by default, line breaks are formatted automatically based on the content you input. This means that you don't have direct control over line breaks without the use of the Rich Text field.

However, if you need more control over line breaks in your CMS content, there are a few workarounds you can utilize:

1. Custom Code Embed: You can use a Custom Code Embed element within your CMS template or page to add line breaks where you specifically want them. For example, you can insert HTML code `
` at the desired locations in your text content. This option requires a basic understanding of HTML and can be helpful if you want to exert fine-grained control over line breaks.

2. Multiple Text Fields: Splitting your content into multiple text fields can also provide some control over line breaks. You can create separate text fields within your CMS collection for different sections of your content. By doing so, you can input line breaks specifically where you want them. However, this approach may not be ideal if you have longer, continuous text content or if you anticipate frequent changes to the content structure.

3. Markdown Field: If you can use Markdown in your project, you can leverage a Markdown field within your CMS collection. Markdown allows you to add line breaks by leaving an empty line between paragraphs or using a double space at the end of a line. This option provides more control and flexibility over line breaks without having to resort to the Rich Text field.

It's important to evaluate multiple options and consider the specific requirements of your project when choosing the best approach for you. Keep in mind that each workaround has different implications for content structure, management, and future updates, so choose the one that aligns best with your needs.
