The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

Replace paragraph HTML element with line breaks (rnrn) in php – WordPress

Most answers here are about converting line breaks to <p> but I’m looking to do the opposite. I need <p> to be rnrn.

Because the WCFM marketplace plugin for WordPress is forcing the use of HTML elements but I need to output my description as JSON object as below, without HTML.

{
    "name": "Hijo",
    "description": "<p>Too cute to avoid. You'd so wanna bring her home.</p><p>Each of our pets is .....",
}

Or is there an opposite function to wpautop()?

    You can just use strtr to swap the strings.

    $description = "<p>Too cute to avoid. You'd so wanna bring her home.</p><p>Each of our pets is </p><p>3rd Line.....";

$descriptionLf = strtr($description,['<p>' => '','</p>' => "rnrn"]);

echo '<pre>'.$descriptionLf.'</pre>';

    Note: The special characters like n must be in double quotes.

    Output:

    Too cute to avoid. You'd so wanna bring her home.

Each of our pets is 

3rd Line.....
