Title: Space between paragraphs Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Space between paragraphs * [situation](https://wordpress.org/support/users/situation/) * (@situation) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/space-between-paragraphs/) * I hope this is the right section for my question. * Sometimes in my posts I need to separate two paragraphs, instead of going just down with the line. * With WP 1.5 I had a WYSIWYG editor plugin, that didn’t work exactly like some real WYSIWYG editor (like Dreamweaver), because with ENTER I created a `

` tag, but not the space between paragraphs….however, the problem could be resolved by pressing ENTER two times… * Now, with WP 2.0.1, I tried to deactivate that plugin (Mudbomb plugin, for the chronicles), and not only the problem is still there, but I can’t even resolve it with that trick….the space is not there, and it will not be created with ten- thousand ENTER, too… * Could be something with the CSS? Or is it a bug of the 2.0 editor? * Thanks in advance… Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) * [moshu](https://wordpress.org/support/users/moshu/) * (@moshu) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/space-between-paragraphs/#post-351537) * Normally the wysiwyg in WP 2.x works like this: Enter = paragraph `

` Ctrl +Enter = line break `

` acts like a `
`: no space between paragraphs. * I checked my CSS and it seems there’s nothing wrong… * [fruitfly](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fruitfly/) * (@fruitfly) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/space-between-paragraphs/#post-351607) * It looks like the p tag spacing is working fine to me. * Using the single page [http://www.allofu2.com/notizie/togli-il-grammy-agli-u2/](http://www.allofu2.com/notizie/togli-il-grammy-agli-u2/) as my base, I looked at your code. * Where there are p tags, there is space. There are places where it looks like you intended a new paragraph, but what you’ve got in the code is a br instead. * Example – the first paragraph after the blockquote starts with “Molti di voi hanno pensato che…” and that paragraph isn’t actually closed until “…riesco a dare torto a 6 miliardi di persone.” * I’m not sure how you’re doing it – are you somehow pressing ctrl+enter by mistake?– but somehow you’re getting breaks where you want paragraphs. * Thread Starter [situation](https://wordpress.org/support/users/situation/) * (@situation) * [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/space-between-paragraphs/#post-351896) * Sorry FruitFly….yesterday I was busy and I didn’t remember to check out this topic… * I asked a friend of mine and she told me just to add a margin-bottom for the p tag….now it works, as you have seen * A very simple solution, and I asked to the support….I’m sorry Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) The topic ‘Space between paragraphs’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [paragraphs](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/paragraphs/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 4 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [situation](https://wordpress.org/support/users/situation/) * Last activity: [20 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/space-between-paragraphs/#post-351896) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
