  First, I hate the new editor and am willing to leave WordPress because of it.

  In the meantime, I cannot get spacing between paragraphs after a hard return. How do I get my post to look the way my posts have looked for years?

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

  Hi there.

  We’ve had a few reports of line breaks being removed in the new editor and I can definitely understand that it must be frustrating. Would you be able to let me know a few extra details behind your particular issue? The following would really help us in troubleshooting this further:

  * Were you working under the Visual tab of your editor?
  * Did the line breaks show the first time you saved your post or did they get removed upon additional saves/edits?
  * Were you trying to add more than one line break?

  It’s worth noting that, while we look into fixing this, you can still access the classic editor directly from the following link:
  https://thelukewarmersway.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  From that link, hover over Posts on the left-hand side and then choose either Add New or All Posts from there. You’ll be able to edit or add posts in the classic editor that way.

  We won’t be removing access to WP Admin but our aim is to make the new editor so good that you prefer to use it. :) If you can let me know those extra details then I can add them to my report on the new editor.

  Hi, thanks for responding.

  I was working in Visual. The line breaks never appeared–they didn’t go up and then disappear after editing.

  Thanks

  Tom

  Hi Tom.

  Thanks so much for the extra information. I’ve added it to my report back to the developers and they’ll work towards fixing this.

  If you have any other questions or feedback in the meantime then please don’t hesitate to let me know.
