Meta description new line

[DriedSponge]

Hello there! Does anyone how to stat a new line in the meta decription ta?

Something like this:

<meta name="description" content="Fisrt line, second line, third line" />

Not sure I understand the question.

You can use ENTER or newline characters in the content attribute and it should work just fine.

If you want to force it to stay on one line, you could use escape individual bytes with the &#number;  or &#xHEXCODE; format 

An enter is defined as CRLF = carriage return + line feed... 0x0D and 0x0A , \r and \n ... \n is typically enough.

 

So you could say

 

<meta name="description" content="First line,&#x0A; second line, third line" />

(funny, if you double click the code boxes to edit, the code auto converts the sequence to actual new line)

 

and if you open the development tools and type in console  document.head you will see in the object

 

firstElementChild: <meta name="description" content="First line,\n second line, third line">

so you can see the browser converted the html escape sequence to \n , the new line / line feed character
