from django.utils.safestring import mark_safe
from django.template.defaultfilters import stringfilter
from django.utils.text import normalize_newlines
register = template.Library()
@register.filter
def remove_new_lines(text, replacement=' '):
"""
Removes and replaces all newline characters from a block of text.
default replacement=' '
"""
# Normalize new lines
normalized_text = normalize_newlines(text)
# Replace newlines with replacement
return mark_safe(normalized_text.replace('\n', replacement))

To use it in your template files:
