Format Profilefield

[Infinity101]

Hello,

I have a custom field which user's generally write several paragraphs. I display this field manually {vb:raw bbuserinfo.field}.

When the field displays, it does not include the formatting the user specified. For example, a input with 3 paragraphs will display the entire field as one paragraph.

I have tried a plugin I found posted by Lynne, however had no such luck.

if ($profilefield['profilefieldid'] == 1)
{
$find = "\n";
$replace = "<br />";

$profilefield['value']= str_replace($find, $replace, $profilefield['value']);
}

I used member_complete and multiple other plugin locations in the hopes that I'd get lucky before posting.

Thanks for any help.
