# WP Editor Issue

 * Is there a resolution yet to the WP Editor not adding line/paragraph breaks when
   you’re posting a post or page?
 * (ie: It ignores the or <p> command so it stops adding additional paragraph tags
   when you’re typing a draft and hit “enter” to go into the next line or the next
   2 or more lines)

 * I don’t know of any such issue with either the HTML or Visual Editor.

 * The issue I’m having is similar to this one: [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-come-i-never-get-an-answer-about-wps-awful-editor?replies=55](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-come-i-never-get-an-answer-about-wps-awful-editor?replies=55)

 * Unless you provide a link to a page demonstrating **your** problem, no one will
   be able to offer much in the way of specific help.

 * I can’t find a page demonstrating my problem.
 * When I’m creating/editing a post/page in “Visual” mode, and I need to have 2 
   or more line breaks in my content, the editor ignores my command when I press
   the “enter” key twice.
 * When I switch to “Html” mode, and add `<br />` or `<p>`, it ignores those commands
   as well and/or when I hit “Save”, it resets back to the original formatting.
 * **ie:**
 * The right way: “This is how I want my content to be.
 * With the line breaks that I ask for.”
 * The wrong way: “This is how I want my content to be. With the line breaks that
   I ask for.”

 * I reinstalled WordPress version 3.0.1 and I’m still having the issue.

 * You need to be able to point people to a publically accessible page or post that
   demonstrates this “lack of line breaks”.

 * I thought I explained it thoroughly in my previous post: The issue is not on 
   a public page. It’s within the **editor** _before_ I post a page or post. It’s**
   while** I’m drafting a post/page that it ignores my commands.

   for work). Check any post or page.

 * Ah – so you’re saying that the Visual Editor isn’t displaying your new lines 
   but that the Posts/Pages display correctly when published?
