   In my excerpt, the summary of the post seems to be clumped together with no spaces that are indicated in the post.

   Is this a setting in wordpress, or is this in my css.

   If this is in my css, please help me fix this.

   If you are wondering, I am using the theme showcased here
   http://www.wpnow.com/demo/#elements

   See how the summary is clumped together?

   The template tag the_excerpt() automatically removes all formatting - including paragraphs. Try replacing it with the_content() in the relevant template files.

   actually, I think I found the code that would address this problem. I just don't know how to change it.

   the following is an excerpt in my function.php

   /************************************************************\
   * WP NOW - Content Show
   \************************************************************/

   function wpn_content_show($limit)
   {
   if(is_category() || is_archive())
   {
   if (!empty($post->post_excerpt))
   {
   the_excerpt();
   }
   else
   {
   wpn_content_limit(get_the_content(), $limit);
   }
   }
   else
   {
   wpn_content_limit(get_the_content(), $limit);
   }
   }
