  Where do I go to update the block text which is showing up as About, on all the blog posts? This has started showing up recently and I wish to add few links and more text to it.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  That “author profile” section is found here > Users > My Profile > About you

  Thanks.

  It almost takes the html. I can add HREF, but I can’t add BR. It wouldn’t let me start sentence on a new line.

  I’m never attempted to post any HTML into that section and have always assumed it was not HTML activated so I can’t help you with that.

  It seems like a theme specific issue to me. The line space works on gravatar but not on my Enterprise theme.

  Any case, not really a big deal. Thanks for your help.

  Yes, HTML links (HREF) is working fine in the profile box, as I mentioned above. But you noticed that on my gavatar page, I have second sentence starts at a new paragraph? But the same isn’t the case on the bottom of the blog post. The line [and Community. Like us on] is together.

  It provides a character space but not a line break.

  Hmmmm …In the HTML editor, pressing return once gives a line break, pressing it twice gives a line break plus a blank line. Have you tried setting this up in a draft post first and thene copying and pasting the code onto the “About me” box?
