    I am new to wordpress and just posted my first post, but my text lines are all double spaced. How can I modify that?

    Thanks,
    Francesco

    p, ul, ol {
    	margin-top: 0;
    	line-height: 240%;
    	text-align: justify;
    }

    this code in your css is controlling the line-height of anything wrapped in a <p> you can reduce that 240% if you like, that should work (but it may also affect other parts of your layout)

    if it affects other portions of your layout negatively, then undo the previous changes and instead, in your css look for:

    .post .entry {
    	padding: 10px 0;
    }

    and under that add something like:

    .post .entry p{
    	line-height: 110%;
    }

    (the percentage numbers can be adjusted to suit…..)

    RVoodoo: You rock!

    I modified the .post .entry as you suggested and it worked perfectly.

    Thank you so much,

    I have this problem also, although it’s only recently started. Before today, I could copy and paste a poem/short story onto the blog with no problems or alterations. Now wordpress seems to be automatically inducing a double space rule – which I don’t want. Is there any way I can correct this? My site is http://tigeraria.wordpress.com.

    Thanks

    TO WORDPRESS – I also think it’s fairly ridiculous to have to post a code into something just to make it work. If wordpress would like people to continue using their blog, they might like to try making things a little easier? Because this is hugely frustrating.
