WooCommerce

Hi,

I am writing to report a significant limitation regarding the text/description field inside the new WooCommerce Checkout Block.

Currently, this field strictly sanitizes and strips out all standard line breaks (n, ) and basic HTML elements (such as tags or bullet points) generated by React under the hood. As a result, when we try to display essential store instructions—such as email validation alerts, precise shipping guidelines for specific regions, and billing choices—the system forces all text into a single, massive, and unreadable paragraph block.

We had to resort to a custom global CSS workaround (white-space: pre-line !important;) just to visually force the line breaks to render on the frontend, which is far from ideal for standard store management.

Since this area is vital for displaying key onboarding instructions before a customer finalizes an order, it should natively support rich text formatting, basic lists, link insertion, and standard line breaks (Shift + Enter). Could you please pass this feedback to the development team to improve the UX and flexibility of this block container?

Best regards,
Ignacio
