Hello! :-)
Please, I'd like to know how I could do something when editing...
When writing a new post, many times I want to insert EXTRA line spaces to better organize my text. It's useless to hit Enter key more then once; the post will not show the extra lines when published. It's also useless edit html to manually insert tags like <p> or
: they are ignored when the post is publish.
I REALLY NEED this. Please any help here? What's the trick? :-)
Thank you!s
A complete amateur way to do it, but what about putting something like a few lines of dots between your text and change the text color to white...if your post background color is white. Like this:

How about using html
tags, it's also a very amateur way of doing it but it should work.
If you always need extra space under each paragraph then you can use CSS. Suppose the main area on your page is a div called:
<div id="content">
You can put this this in your css file:
#content p {
margin: 0 0 10px 0;
}

Tag got stripped, I meant break tags: <br />

For more than one <br />, you need to use a non-breaking space.
For example,
I did this with <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />

Nothing works here. This is ***********VERY************ annoying! Why would the great WordPress think we cannot use extra spaces?
Thank you, my friends, for your suggestions. Any of them works here. I insert the codes properly, but the editor *automatically* deletes them. (???) That's why I think this is so much annoying. I don't understand what is the WP's point of view here. Or this is a bug, maybe?
TransPersonal, I don't allways need extra space, so I'll not use CSS. But thanks for your special attention.
And Figaro, my only "solution" is follow what you suggest: white dots. :-( Thank you!
Yea...it's not pretty, but it works. ;-)

There is a disadvantage to this: when search engines find text that is the same color as the background, they are likely to ignore the site. The search engine cannot (or does not) assess the functional value of the text in this situation.
