| line breaks | saltcellar | 4/28/12 8:04 AM | Trying to post a poem to my blog is impossible since the line breaks are not showing up. Will have to move my blog soon if this isn't corrected since I am a poet! There was no problem with line breaks before Google started tinkering. Frustrating in t |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/4/12 2:17 PM | I too am a poet, just tried to post a poem and found this happening also! Yes, very frustrating and it never happened before. What the heck is going on?? Blogger has been working fine for me up til now but I'll have to blog elsewhere if this isn't r |

| Re: line breaks | saltcellar | 7/4/12 2:45 PM | I escaped over the wall to Wordpress.com and haven't had any problems with them. Blogspot just isn't poet-friendly. It's easy to move your blog - see you on the other side! |
| Re: line breaks | saltcellar | 7/4/12 2:47 PM | I really doubt that anyone at Blogspot actually reads these posts. It's up to us to go where we are wanted. |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/4/12 3:44 PM | Thanks for the reply saltcellar. I was thinking I'd need to go to Wordpress. Yes, quite disheartening that Google tells us to go to this forum if we have an issue, when no one seems to be in charge or even reading the posts. :-( I got really upset t |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/5/12 1:01 AM | Oh, and I can't indent paragraphs either! It's all jumbled together! Not a happy Fourth, for me. |

| Re: line breaks | saltcellar | 7/5/12 6:23 AM | That was pretty much the procedure. I just went to Wordpress, set up a new blog, and followed their instructions for importing my old posts to the new blog. There is a small learning curve but I worked it out with no problem. Good luck! |
| Re: line breaks | saltcellar | 7/5/12 6:38 AM | Here's a link to my blog: http://dandelionlunch.wordpress.com/ Send me yours. Would enjoy seeing your new blog. |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/5/12 3:50 PM | Thanks, checked out your blog and left a comment on the latest post. Look forward to reading more. I like Byron too! "She walks in beauty, like the night..." Did you see the movie about Byron with Jonny Lee Miller? Awesome. It may be a little whil |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/5/12 3:54 PM | Oh, thanks Peter, just saw your post here. Will try that. Hopefully though I would not have to do it every time I post a poem! And hopefully it will do the job for paragraph breaks as well! |
| Re: line breaks | Peter Chen - Blogger Top Contributor | 7/6/12 12:58 AM | You only need to do it once then it will always be a line break for every Enter key |
| Re: line breaks | Altamisal | 7/6/12 1:47 AM | Yes, I did it and it worked. Thanks again. |
