Updating website, adding space

6 years 10 months ago
#73696
I like when some of the content is spaced out, but I haven't been able to do that in the past few months (I could before). I even tried adding <br>, which worked once & then not again. Could you please advise how to add space between text, pictures, etc. - if I want to add more than one blank line? No matter what I do in the "edit mode", the blank space is removed when saved.

Thank you.

You have to understand the the editor is managing the underlying HTML. You have to use the editor controls.

Press the enter key for a paragraph break, and shift+enter key for a line break (creates a <br> in the HTML).

Thank you for the prompt response. Yes, I am using the editor controls, but it doesn't seem to "keep" the blank space.

Example: advancedleaderslab.com/

The bottom of the landing page was created a long time ago; there's more space b/w the paragraphs, etc. The top, which gets updated periodically, is all the same spacing.

See the following: stackoverflow.com/questions/14848326/emp...n-html-editor-or-not

I found that if you put a type a space then press carriage return, the space makes it a "non-empty" paragraph which seems to work. The line break approach should work also, but maybe only from inside a paragraph? :?

You can also use the <div> icon to put some of your content in a div which will allow you to set a style on the div...
e.g. margin-bottom:20px

BTW, it is not the editor doing this space removal. If you press Ctrl-U so that you can see the underlying HTML that is being sent to your browser, you will see that all the <p></p> tags are there. It is the browser that is removing the blank paragraphs.
