How to fix the line break in the section descriptions?

Topic summary

A user encountered an issue with the “Aesthetic” Shopify theme where line breaks couldn’t be added in section description text editors. Pressing Enter had no effect, and attempting to use <br> or <p> tags resulted in an error message stating these tags aren’t allowed.

Resolution:
Another community member provided a simple solution: use the self-closing tag </br> instead of <br>. This successfully resolved the line break issue.

Follow-up Question:
The original poster now asks whether it’s possible to:

  • Add HTML customization to description fields
  • Use metafields while preserving HTML structure
  • Specifically utilize <ul> and <li> tags within the theme’s “Collapsible content” section for product descriptions

The user reports that when creating a metafield to include product descriptions in this section, the HTML code is ignored. This follow-up question remains unanswered.
