# Editting wpautop Function

 * For the wpautop function included within “functions-formatting.php” I’d like 
   to change the function so instead of inserting when there is a double line break,
   instead I’d like to insert a double <br> (p’s messing up my site layout).
 * So for example:
    Hello my name is
 * gareth
 * would be outputted as
    Hello my name is<br><br>gareth
 * instead of Hello my name is
    gareth
 * I have looked at the function but can’t work out what should be change/commented
   out. Any help would be appreciated.
 * Thanks

 * Any of these threads helpful? Seems this has been done once or twice already.
