I created some services in the back end panel, with the text duly formated (paragraphs, comas, breaks, caps...) but in the front end the text is displayed in one line only, no breaks, no caps. Please see the attached screenshots.
I thank you in advance for your assistance and support. It is quite urgent...
All the best,
António
PS: all you demos show perfectly formatted text. it's a little desappointing not to be able to reproduce it on my website and I would expect a little bit more from a paid plugin.
Isn't there any way to chage this trough CSS? As you may understand not everybody understands html coding and the backend of this services is usually managed by regular peolple (haidressers in this case).
I've made some tests by changing CSS directly in the browser in developer mode and it worked. So I've downloaded, modified and replaced the original file "amelia-booking.6cON9pEDgf" with the one alterd by me. I'm not a programmer and only by doing a lot of serching, browsing and googling I've managed to make some changes...
I kindly ask your developers to take a closer look to this issue and correct it in a future update. I've changed the texts by simply adding "text-transform: capitalize;" to the lines qhere I needed. But most of it or even all could be solved by just removing the property inherited from the body "text-transform:lowercase;" (I don't know hot to do that...).
I'm attaching the modified CSS file and some screenshots for you analysis. Screen 1 and 2 refers to the properties inherited from body that by being removed would solve the problem with the capitalization in all your texts...
We still have the problem with line breaks... for that I couldn't come up with a solution! Will have to do it manually for now adding <br> in the service descriptions.
Doing it through CSS would be more difficult than with HTML codes, since you'd need to be altering innerHTML and modify existing classes. Doing it like you did - modifying the code may work, but it's going to revert when the plugin updates.
We do not provide support for customization questions like this. The included support refers to issues with the plugin, and advice only, and custom work is only offered as paid service. Unfortunately, our developers are too busy, so they won't have the time to accept any custom work.
They are working on a new customization feature, which will allow more options, but I can't say when that will be included in the plugin.
I have a backup of the CSS file I have modified. I know the risks so I'll avoid updating otherwise I'll just edit the main CSS file all over again.
After the website I'm creating is ready, it is going to be managed by hairdressers. This is what I need you to understand. This is a website beeing build for an hairdresser. Someone (not me) will be managing the appointments and eventualy creating new services. They will only be fiiling blank fields with information relative to their activity. Imagine yourself introducing html code everytime you wanted to publish something on facebook...This is not customization. This is very basic text formatting.
The whole purpose of using plugins (except the ones build specificaly for that) is not having to "code" anything. Specially paid plugins. I've sent the modified css file only for your analysis. I'm not a programmer or developer. Very far from it. Neither my intention was to replace or moc any of your work. Don't get me wrong. I belive your plugin is great and very versitile and the work you've done is just great.
I look forward to new updates and I'm very pleased with the plugin and working with it.
Thanks for your feedback, António, it's much appreciated.
I know what you're talking about, and I agree with you. It's just that at the moment, there's no other way to have it be user-friendly in all cases.
We're developing the plugin all the time, and I hope there will be more options while editing and customizing services. The new customize feature we're developing should include that. After all - it's being developed for laymen, not programmers, so it should cover that.

Hello António
Service description accepts HTML code, so to add breaks, you need to use <br>, like this:
And it will look the same on front-end:
For example, italic, bold, and normal text would have to be formatted like this:
And on front-end they'd come up like this:
