Page descriptions are displayed when they are not part of a collection, which is expected behaviour. If you have a collection, its description is displayed, but as stated, long descriptions are cut off because they don't fit into the field. All description fields are now plain text and don't allow formatting any more. We haven't yet implemented a 'metadata' option yet that is displayed in a modal for a page.

The collection description is plain text whereas the page description isn't and thus could contain a whole lot more than just text. I would not turn the collection description field into TinyMCE anymore as we don't need the description to contain content like in the past for pages to allow for ta top banner. Possibilities are: - Hover over the description and show the full description - little chevron to expand it (wouldn't really work on "Pages and collections" though) - ?
