Format paragraph for single line break
-
Hi,
I like to use single line breaks at times between a heading and the text below it. Is there a way, however, to apply a heading paragraph style to only the first line? When I use single line breaks (shift + enter), the paragraph style applies to not only the first line, but the text underneath as well, unless I use the regular line break.Thanks
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

If you are copying and pasting from a word processing document like Microsoft WORD note that the paste as WORD button was removed from the editor months ago. If you use the Paste as plain text button then a special cleanup process will run to remove any special formatting and HTML tags that may otherwise change your text. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text Therefore you have to do your own formatting and spacing.
Whether or not you are copying and pasting go to > Dashboard > Settings > Writing and enable this setting:
Formatting
__ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically
“save changes”Blog editors and word processors are not the same and do not work the same way. The web standard is one blank line only, so you cannot add more blank lines by pressing return repeatedly like you would do with a typewriter or in a word processing application. If you want to learn how to format and space your posts and pages see: http://en.support.wordpress.com/advanced-html/
P.S. When you create a new post, always make sure the Format tool is set to Paragraph before you start typing. It’s in the Visual editor Row 2 first position “style”. See the illustration here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2 If you forget to do that then edit the post, highlight all in the Visual editor, select Paragraph from the Format tool, switch editor to Text then switch back to Visual and click Update.
