    Why does inline styling work in the Textarea Field and NOT in the Text field?

    I am unable to change the color of text when using the Text field; I have to choose the Textarea field in order to for html such as this to work <span style="color: #0054a3 !important">HOT NEW DEALS.</span> to work

    Hello Basil,

    The text field is sanitized by the WordPress function sanitize_text_field(), all HTML tags are stripped when saving the field value.
    If you want to add HTML tags to the text field, please follow the documentation to bypass sanitization
