Why can't I put a space in between paragraphs?

  I’m typing just like I always do, but when I click “save draft,” “preview,” or “publish,” all of the spaces between my paragraphs disappear and it looks like a jumbled mess. I’ve tried starting a new post, retyping everything, adding extra spaces…nothing seems to be working.

  It must be some sort of glitch, because I haven’t ever had a problem with it before…Any ideas?

  Try hitting the shift key and return (or enter) key when you add spaces between paragraphs. That should do the trick.

  Please let me know how it goes.
