 * In building a page, I’m having trouble finding a way to make less space between
   my lines of text. Right no, every time I start a new line, its treated sort of
   like a new paragraph with a huge gap in between lines of text. Sort of like this:
 * Rishi’s Crossing Yoga Studio
 * 273 S. Broadway, Denver
 * (303)894-6000
 * Where I’d like it to look more like this:
 * Rishi’s Crossing Yoga Studio
    273 S. Brouadway, Denver (303)894-6000
 * Can anybody tell me how to remove that large gap between lines? I tried importing
   from Word without any luck. I appreciate the help!

 * Here’s the url: [http://feelbetteryoga.com/classes-and-workshops-2/](http://feelbetteryoga.com/classes-and-workshops-2/)
   
   Obviously the font size is stuffed up too, but it’s the spacing under “Current
   Classes” and the list that follows this that I’d like to be able to manipulate.

 * Remember this will effect all paragraph spacing so best way is not use <p> click
   edit on page and go html tab and take `<p> </p>`tags out from those lines.
    They
   must have been put there by the editor because press enter to go to next line.
 * In your theme folder you find this
    [http://feelbetteryoga.com/wp-content/themes/launch/css/typography.css](http://feelbetteryoga.com/wp-content/themes/launch/css/typography.css)
   in typography.css
 * look for code around 85
 * p {
    line-height:1.5em; margin:0 0 1.5em;
 * change line-height to .5em or if still less spacing .25em even less if you want.

 * It turned out to be a different issue- there weren’t any “p”s anywhere. But you
   did give me the hint I needed to figure it out! Thanks!

 * You are welcome what I do is use notepad++ to write my content the way I want
   it and then copy paste in editor I never type directly wordpress editor.
