Have a go at wrapping your field in your show.html.erb or wherever you want to display it with simple_format, for example:

<%= simple_format(@object.description) %>

See http://apidock.com/rails/ActionView/Helpers/TextHelper/simple_format for more info.

I've solved this problem by implementing SKEditor. There is a lot of tutorial how to implement this editor. I (as a lot of other users) have problem that my text wasn't formatted because this editor is not compatible with turbo links. So, I disable turbo links in some files, and as result I have the text formatted.
