Can't get line breaks to work

  • After making a few changes to a scheduled post, the line breaks toward the end of the post disappeared. I tried going to the Text view and entering all the possible easy HTML code I could one at a time to see if they would work, e.g.
    </br>, <p></p>,  
    etc. but none of them work. The last 4 paragraphs in my post for Aug. 21, 2013 have no breaks between them. This also happened when I tried to insert a line break after a button in my post on 8/19/13.

    It is driving me crazy! Is there something I’m doing wrong? I’m out of ideas. Thank you for any help or advice.

    Try
    instead of </br> and <p></p> . If it doesn’t solve your problem and if you are familiar with PHP, try nl2br() function in yout template file to display the post contents.

    Hakkim, thanks for responding, but something is missing in your reply. ?? After the word “Try”, it is blank.

    Unfortunately, I’m not familiar with PHP, so I don’t know how to try the nl2br() function.

    Oh yes! it was <br/> . Try <br/> instead of </br> and <p></p>

    the correct variation (syntax wise) is
    <br />
    with the the space following the br

    Thank you so much! My mistake!

    The extra space before the / did not seem to make a difference.

    I just went in to make the change. I placed the

    or

    at the end of the sentence/paragraph. Instead of one line break, it gave me either a triple line break…which is better than everything running together. But is there any way I can get a single line between paragraphs?

    Thanks again for your help
