 * Hi, everyone
 * So, my problem is pretty basic, it’s just bugging me. When I go to write a post
   and I’m writing a paragraph and then press enter, space will appear between my
   two paragraphs. However, when I hit preview, it doesn’t look like the same as
   it did in the Visual Editor. Is there any way to fix this minor problem? My only
   solution as of now is to tap Enter twice when I’m working on a post, but this
   is somewhat frustrating.

 * Sure.

 * As you see, I’d like there be space between the paragraphs. And like I said, 
   my only solution is to double-tap enter when I’m writing. I was just wondering
   if there was a way where I can press enter once and space will appear between
   those paragraphs.

 * If you’re not using a Child Theme, and if the theme doesn’t have a section for
   CSS modifications then do the following:
    1. Install this Custom CSS Manager plugin [http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin](http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin)
    2. use its “CSS Code” [section of the dashboard](https://s.w.org/plugins/custom-css-manager-plugin/screenshot-1.jpg?r=1288706)
       to hold your CSS modifications:
    3.  (put this code in)
    4.     ```
           p {
               margin: 10px 0;
           }
           ```
       
    5. Save
 * _Alternatively use your Child Theme style.css file to hold your CSS modifications_
