Settings

Besides the common settings, this field has the following specific settings:

Name	Description
`raw`	If you want to save data in raw format, e.g. exactly the same as you enter in the editor without applying `wpautop()` function. Can be `true` or `false` (default). Optional.
`options`	Array of editor options, which is the same as 3rd parameter for wp_editor().

By default, the plugin uses 2 options:

Name	Default Value	Description
`editor_class`	`rwmb-wysiwyg`	Just to make CSS consistent with other fields
`dfw`	`true`	Allow to use “Distraction Free Writing” mode (full-screen mode)

Sample code

array(
    'name'    => 'WYSIWYG / Rich Text Editor',
    'id'      => 'field_id',
    'type'    => 'wysiwyg',

    // Set the 'raw' parameter to TRUE to prevent data being passed through wpautop() on save
    'raw'     => false,

    // Editor settings, see https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_editor
    'options' => array(
        'textarea_rows' => 4,
        'teeny'         => true,
    ),
),

Data

If raw is true, this field saves exactly what you enter to the database. Otherwise, it saves the value after applying wpautop function.

Template usage

To output the field value, use this code:

$value = rwmb_meta( $field_id );
echo $value;

Note that the helper function doesn’t format the value of this field nor run shortcodes in the content. In case you want to make it behaves similar to the post content (e.g. format and shortcodes), use this code:

$value = rwmb_meta( $field_id );
echo do_shortcode( wpautop( $field_id ) );
