Double Carriage Returns not appearing on posts (2 posts)

    When working int the Post Editor, Double returns appear naturally when hitting a hard return and appear there fine.
    When the post is published, the double returns are removed and long postings end up looking like one long run-on paragraph with out breaks.
    Even if I enter extra returns, they are always removed from the post once it is published.

    Does anyone know how to get WP to retain these returns?

    HTML doesn't work this way. Double carriage returns are replaced with paragraph tags (<p>[Content here...]</p>). So what you need to do is to is to increase paragraph spacing (controlled by margin and padding attributes) in your theme's stylesheet. That's assuming paragraph tags are output properly (look at your raw HTML to verify). If they're not, something has gone wrong with the post editor...
