    Hello,
    I just have a general question. When I need more space between paragraphs and headlines, I know this can be accomplished by hitting enter which adds an  . But is this bad practice? Should space be added with bottom margins?

    Thanks for our help.

    Hey,
    You can increase your line-height for your fonts from Theme Options > Typography.
    Hope that helps!

    Hi Hannah,

    thanks, but I meant the space distance between two paragraphs. They always have a bottom-margin, but if I want more, is it bad practise to just add an nbsp; (press enter)? This would result in multiple empty p-tags in the html…

    Which editor are you using? If using the WordPress block editor you can use the spacer block to add more space between paragraphs. Would this work for you?

    Sorry I forgot to mention! I really dislike Gutenberg so I have disabled it and use the regular visual or even text editor.

    You can add this shortcode between your paragraphs: [clear] Does that work as you’re wanting?

    Yes, I know I can add this, as I also can add a   but I was wondering whether this really is good practice…should you use a bottom margin instead?

    While extra p tags are not ideal it’s valid.

    I don’t suggest doing it. I suggest you use a shortcode if you don’t want to use Gutenberg or a pagebuilder.

    If you want all paragraphs to have more space and not just some then changing the css for the bottom margin makes sense.

    Does that helps?
