@iu7489 That does the exact opposite of what I want. Instead of enabling curly quotes on Markdown-generated posts, it disables curly quotes everywhere.

@macmanx I understand, but my question is, _where_ within the code? Code inside _functions.php_ needs to be inside some function, doesn’t it? So what function? Or am I being told that this code will run even if placed at the top level of the file?

@iu7489 Where would I add those lines? What function do I add them to? Thanks

OK solved by adding some more css, but I still don’t understand the original cause. Thanks anyway.

@anevins Well for example in your own screen shot, the line “If a view controller is in” is separated from the next line, “controller, the newly” a lot more than all the rest of the same paragraph’s lines are separated from one another (e.g. “controller on the” from “navigation controller’s stack”).

The paragraph element inside the list item is good. This is all done thru JetPack Markdown. My additional css specifies

p {
	font-size:0.9em;
	line-height:1.2;
}

And that’s being obeyed throughout, including inside li. But what is causing the extra space between only the first two lines of the li p entries is mystifying me.

Actually this problem seems to have been solved by an overnight automatic update to WordPress version 5.1.1 / Twenty Nineteen version 1.3. So it evidently was indeed a bug, now fixed.

If you scroll down on the linked page, you’ll see that. There is space just between lines 1 and 2 of each bullet item. Subsequent lines of a bullet item have the line spacing I want.
