Find the paragraph you want to add more space above and/or below, and insert the HTML
tag around it like this: * ‘
This is your paragraph text.
’ * This adds 16 pixels of space below the paragraph. To add space above and below, you can use margin-top and margin-bottom like this: * ‘This is your paragraph text.
’ * Be sure to click the Update button when you are finished. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Line spacing on about page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/line-spacing-on-about-page/) * [mcbuzz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcbuzz/) * (@mcbuzz) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/line-spacing-on-about-page/#post-1736125) * As for eliminating the automatic indent, please give your URL so I can see what you mean and I’ll see if I can find the CSS responsible for it. * Forum: [Themes and Templates](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/themes-and-templates/) In reply to: [Line spacing on about page](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/line-spacing-on-about-page/) * [mcbuzz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcbuzz/) * (@mcbuzz) * [15 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/line-spacing-on-about-page/#post-1736124) * Oops.

If you want space between paragraphs throughout your site, you can modify the Constructor style.css file. * Save a copy of the original style.css file in case anything goes wrong so you can restore the original. Open style.css in a text editor like notepad (for PC) and find * ``` .hentry .entry p{ text-indent:12px; margin-bottom:4px } ``` * Change it to * ``` .hentry .entry p{ text-indent:12px; margin-bottom:16px; } ``` * Save the file as style.css (that is, don’t change the name). If you are using Windows, make sure it doesn’t add .txt to the file name. Now use FTP software like WS_FTP (there’s a free trial) or Cute FTP on a PC to upload style.css and copy over the existing style.css. * You can adjust the margin-bottom value to your liking. Try 16 and see how it looks. * I’m assuming you know how to use FTP software, but that might not be true. Let me know if not. * You can also do this “manually” using in-line CSS. That’s fine for once or twice, but if you want your changes to apply to all paragraphs, it’s better to use the method above. * For in-line, in the HTML editor window of WordPress, you can do this to a paragraph. * Say you have some text like this. * Put the follow code before and after it. *Put the follow code before and after it.

I have a site that uses Flash navigation in the sidebar and banner – and also has embedded Flash in the body of several pages. It all works fine until I turn on custom permalinks. When I do that, none of the Flash will display – except on the home page – just as you describe it. I am using absolute URLs for the . swf and .flv files, but this does not seem to matter. * This is the first time I have tried to find information about it and I’m very surprised at how little is available, especially here on wordpress.org. * Thanks!

I can’t recall what the problem was exactly, but I know I solved it this way. Since it’s easy and quick, it’s always a good thing to try first. * Mark McLaren Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 19 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcbuzz/replies/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mcbuzz/replies/page/2/?output_format=md)
