Testing paragraphs

grimples — Mon, 27 Aug 2018 15:29:06 GMT

When i create or reply to a topic the text is always bunched together, making a new paragraph does not work. Do i need to use HTML. (i pressed enter twice for this line, see if it works)

@grimples ( using the default Rich Text ) .....

This is paragraph 1.

This is paragraph2. with one "enter" or "return" key press between para 1 and para 2

This is paragraph 3 with two "enter" or "return" key presses between Para 2 and 3.

This is paragraph 4 again, with two "enter" or "return" key Presses between para 3 and para 4

Seems to work for me ! ...

What device / browser are you using?

Small view port devices (such as a smart phone) use a different editor. The full screen editor puts <p></p> around paragraphs, whereas the smaller screen editor simply puts <br><br> between paragraphs.

@Townman is correct, mobile browsers use a 'plaint text' editor while desktop browsers use the 'rich text' version which adds html and other stuff.

If you are having issues with the mobile browser version, you could always trick the forum into thinking you're on desktop. Most mobile browsers have a 'request desktop version' option, enabling this will trick the forums into giving you the rich text editor. Hope this helps!
