  My post looks fine before it is published but empty gaps appear on the published version. How do I correct this please?

  Hi there,

  If I look at the post, https://sandy507446ptg2.wordpress.com/2018/11/22/painting-2-concepts-in-practice-assignment-two/, in the HTML view of the editor, I see several non-breaking spaces added at several points in the post. That’s what’s causing the gaps.

  Edit the post, and click on the HTML tab of the editor. The code you’re looking for looks like this:

  & nbsp ; (without the spaces)

  Delete all instances of that and update the post, and those gaps won’t appear any more.

  As for how those extra lines are getting added, are you by any chance creating your content in another program, like a word processor, and then copying it to your site?
