Please help...Unable to add a space between paragraphs in the first page of my blog. The sentences cannot be separated by a space. I went to "edit entry" and hit the enter key 2 time, I also used the shift and enter key together. I had some luck with the insert and enter key, however it only worked a couple of times. What should I do.

Hi!

If you can show us the result of your tests on your blog by giving us the URL we could have a look at the HTML code and see what could be happening?

Best regards,

Two solutions:
- Install the "NL2BR"-plugin, and enable it for your entries.
- If that isn't the problem, you can edit your stylesheet like this:

Code: Select all

p {
margin: 25px;
}
But I guess that's not necessary.

Hi!

Actually, you can use Davy's suggestion. Edit the templates/default/style.css file and insert

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry_body p {
  margin-bottom: 1em;
}
This should enhance the margins between your paragraphs, which are currently set to 0px.

HTH,
Garvin
