Hi,

Is there a Plugin or WYSIWYG edito that will give me the line breaks that I want for formatting?

If I type out in the default WYSIWYG editor a sample like this:

Some time ago I started a paragraph about stuff for Serendipity forums and it looked like this. I liked the way it looked.

I was able to start a new paragraph and there was a line space in between the paragraphs, but not now.

It ends up appearing in the Blog likethis:

Ideally I would like to just be able to type the article and hit an extra return [Enter] to get the line breaks I would like without going back to add any code which is how I've been fixing the entries.

Thanks,

Cody

Hi!

This can be a matter of your stylesheet. Depending on your template you might need something like this in your style.css:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry p {
margin-bottom: 1.5em;
}

While the provided WYSIWYG editor doesn't support Serendipity style sheets, you should be able to use the Preview button to see what it will look like.

I have the following in my stylesheet:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry p {
    margin-top: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 10px;

What should I leave, remove, or add?

Thanks,

Hi!

Actually, in your stylesheet (at least on your alderson arts site) you have this:

Code: Select all

.serendipity_entry p {
    margin: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
}

if it were like you wrote, it should work, because once you assign a padding-bottom or margin-bottom, it should show the spacing.

HTH,

I fixed it. I was looking at the wrong stylesheet.

Thanks for pointing out the obvious.

And is there a WYSIWYG editor that supports the stylesheets?
