    I have tried a number of ways to reduce the spacing between the paragraphs on the blog I’m setting up. I cannot seem to find the right combination of CSS commands. Please help! I’ve worked on this for two hours.

  • I don’t know if this is specifically causing your problem, but I notice viewing the source of your page that each paragraph is wrapped in two paragraph tags.

    So, instead of:

    <p>This is a paragraph.</p>

    You have:

    <p><p>This is a paragraph.</p></p>

    Do you have conflicting markup plugins activated (ie both Textile and Markdown, for example)?

    Thanks, planetthoughtful!!!

    That did the trick. I never even thought to check my plugins. How simple. Whew.

    (GLAD this was so easily resolved.)

    I’m having the same problem.

    My code was like this: This is a paragraph. then I deactivated textiles which fixed the problem but my paragraphs still don’t have a space between them.

    Nevermind. I added this line to my style.css file:
    h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,p {margin:0;padding:0;}

    I didnt mean to do it to every <P> so I changed it to:
    h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 {margin:0;padding:0;}
