Hi everyone,
Did my install the other day and everything seems to be working OK. Have done a few entries, a bullet list. I was writing a longer post and hit enter as I was writing to start a new paragraphs. Did my thing and published it. OMG, no paragraphs, just one long post. Is this the expected behavior of the default install? I couldn't find a setting.
Did some reading and it did mention using a
tag and P tags and it seemed like when I flipped over to the code page and the back or after publishing the results weren't what I really intended. And then if I published and came back to add something else it removed my original code additions.
Today I read more and found out about Advanced Post Editing Screen.
Where is it?
Or is this a plugin?
I seems that if I click a button to add a bullet point there might be a button for a new paragraph?
Any tips would be appreciated.
Where is it?
That's years old information. There is only ONE editing screen in the last 2 years or so.
Man I was going crazy. It is on the WP site here:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts
So with my base install, as I write and want a new P click the code button enter <p> click back and keep writing. I do this but when I click back and forth between visual and code it loses my P tag.
Use a basic wysiwig editor and cut and past the code?
Man... the wysiwyg animal is for code illiterates.
Want your code? - Turn that monster off in admin Users > Your profile.
Very cool. Would have seen that about two months from now.
I entered some plain text and when I hit enter and typed another line the output looked like just a BR. Using P tags gave me real paragraphs. For a blog post this would be fine but for a page that will be static would use an editor and cut and paste.
Starting to get the hang of some of the basics. :)
1. With the visual thing turned off (NOT just switching between viusla and code!) hitting:
Enter x 1 time = br in the source
Enter x 2 times = p in the source
Plus, WP adds p tags at the beginning and at the end. So, what's the problem? I never have to add p tags in my posts...
Oh hey, didn't know about the 1x or 2x enter. so no problem now :) thx! Now to figure out why that break is there between thumbnails...
