Paragraphs lose formatting in Twenty Ten

    I have built a simple website using the Twenty Ten theme but paragraphs lose their spacing and become a continuous text. I can manually insert <p> in the html file but it loses the formatting each time the text is updated. Can anyone help?

  • That’s not the default TwentyTen theme. It’s been customised.

    Yes, it has been modified but not enormously. I thought that was the point of themes….download and then personalise them. Can anyone help?

    See here, looks like the_excerpt function is stripping out html:

    I don’t think that is the problem.

    I want paragraphs to have a gap between them. However, if I open an existing page to edit the text, it loses the gaps between the paragraphs.

    I can make it do this by adding <p> into the html each time but I shouldn’t need to do that.

    Thank you for your help….it is much appreciated!

    Please can anyone help?

    where exactly are the missing breaks?

    for instance, the linked front page looks ok.

    a direct link to the problem page would help to illustrate the issue.

    The pages look ok, but I have had to force the breaks with <p>

    If I go back and edit the pages it loses the paragraphing.

    I have the same problem…did you ever find a solution?

    Sadly no. : (

    I’m having the same problem, but not just with <p> tags, any formatting is getting stripped out in the posts!

    The only thing I’ve customized is the CSS and I haven’t deleted anything, just modified rules.

    Anyone have a clue?

    kakubei, Please post a link to your blog so people can help.

    Well, I sort of fixed it. Turned out that for some reason the page was using the_excerpt() instead of the_content().

    Can’t figure out why though cause the code says if is_archive() or is_search(). So my next question is: what is the difference between content and archive. I mean, these are just regular posts.

    Thanks.
