```
  piklist('field', array(
    'type' => 'editor'
    ,'field' => 'home-description'
    ,'label' => 'Description'
    ,'description' => 'Additional home details.'
    ,'value' => ''
    ,'template' => 'field'
    ,'options' => array(
      'wpautop' => true
      ,'media_buttons' => false
    )
    ,'on_post_status' => array(
      'value' => 'lock'
    )
  ));
```
  <?php echo get_post_meta($homeID, 'home-description', true); ?>
  
  However, <p> tags are not being added to the output.
  
  Any ideas?
  
  WordPress 3.8.1
  Piklist 0.9.2

  The wpautop is an option for the editor itself and doesn’t affect the output. I think what your looking for is something like this?
  
  <?php echo wpautop(get_post_meta($homeID, 'home-description', true)); ?>
  
  Thanks,

  So what does the wpautop option actually do then if it doesn’t affect the output?

  @simon– There are TWO wpautop functions in WordPress… one PHP and one Javascript. What Kevin showed you is for PHP output. The wpautop parameter controls paragraph breaks in the editor. Here’s a little movie I put together to demonstrate.
