Apols if this has already been asked but why when editing posts now do all the paragraphs get merged? I'm sure there's a techie term for this but it's annoying having to go through the entire post and pop the spacings back in.

The technical term is "buggering it up" :ouch:

The powers that be are aware of it, but priority is given to providing access to as many people as possible, at the expense of the richest functionality.

When I queried the same problem a while back, I was advised to sort it in the following way, and it worked:

Go to your User Control Panel - select Edit Options - scroll to bottom Miscellaneous Options - in the dropdown list select Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing.

Problem solved. :ok:

It does work, but I hate the WYSIWYG editor. You just can't see what the **** is going on.

So I am forever putting the double CRs back in - when previewing posts as well as when editing.

Wow ... that's been a real bug bear for ages ... WYSIWYG fixed it for me too.

Thanks!

I've not tried editing one yet - since this is the local editor-testing nook, I'll give it a go.

The merging of paragraphs was a right pain - the number of times I've sat here reinserting them is nobody's business ;)

So now ... is it all fixed?

[Edit - YAY!!!!]
