How can I create a single rendered line of multiple fields within a template?  There always seems to be a return after every field when the page renders.  For example,

<ol class="results">
            {exp:channel:entries channel="block-schedule" paginate="bottom" limit="3"}                     
                       <li class="testionials">
                        {title}{rank}
                        6/27:{day-1}
                        6/28:{day-2}
                        6/29:{day-3}
                        6/30:{day-4}
                        7/01:{day-5}
                    </li>    
                 {paginate}
                Page {current_page} of {total_pages} pages {pagination_links}
                {/paginate}
                
            {/exp:channel:entries}
           </ol>

produces..

OK, it seems to be related to the formatting field options within the Edit Field.  Do you normally set it to XHTML with allow override or None?  Why would you not allow overriding?

If you do not set the field to none, the text fields will return wrapped in tags.  When you change your field, you can choose to override the fields you have already created.  This will remove the wrapped paragraph tags.

Thanks for the assist, Alex.

BrianPx - there will be times when you don’t want to allow your client to change the formatting of a field, which is why you have that setting. I use None for formatting things that shouldn’t be wrapped in a paragraph tag.

Does that help?
