   Hello all.

   Well it's my first Wordpress and so far have been free of problems, however, after making modifications to the design I noticed that the tags that Wordpress automatically adds to any posts when viewing them (not creation/editing) are not being displayed correctly. They only seem to make a single line break, rather like a <br> tag. After looking at the source code the tags do seem to be there so I can only guess there is a problem with my style.css.

   I don't really want to start the design over again, so does anybody have any ideas what might have caused this?

   You can see problem here:

   I hope you guys can be of some help.

   Press Return once to finish the paragraph.
   Press Return again to leave a blank line.

   The validation - while needing work - shows no problems with regard to the tags.

   That's what I'm doing Podz but the < p > tag seems to be just formatting like a < br > tag. Initially when I first added posts it was paragraphing correctly, but it's only since I was modifying the design and css that it's changed.

   First, you might wanna validate your CSS.

   Second, the HTML is fine, well, it's not, but it's fine in regards to the <p>'s. I can tell when I remove all of the CSS from your page -- your paragraphs space themselves out.

   Just check your line spacing and margins/paddings on your content.

   Yeah it was a margin issue thanks. Fixed it by adding this:

   #content p { margin:1em 0; }
