Duplicating the Description field

[Hayley Rodgers]

Hey!

I really like how the Description core field has more advanced text editing options (eg tables, formatted lists, panels etc). Is it possible to create another field with these extensive text editing options (eg for "Feedback") or is a multiline text field all that's possible? I've got a photo with an example of the two field types below:

Add a "multiline text" type custom field, then configure its renderer to "wiki style". That should give you essentially the same wysiwyg editor...

Thanks for your reply! 

However... when I go to create a custom field, these are the only text options I have: 

And then clicking through for each of them, I can't see any renderer options... and looking at this page I can't find how to get the wiki renderer either?

The renderer can configured via the Field Configuration!

(It is not a property of the field alone, therefore it cannot be configured in the screen you tried it.)
