Spacing between Paragraphs

How can I get spaces between paragraphs for course content?

I hit enter (obviously), but when I view the final result, paragraphs are often touching each other.

Sometimes I would like to have two or more lines between paragraphs to separate things more obviously.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered :)

    Hi @Yeslech,

    Instead of (or in addition to) hitting enter, try using shift-enter. My guess is that enter wraps in paragraph tags, and any empty ones (so <p></p>) ends up getting removed. Shift-enter should insert line breaks (ie: <br> tags) which forces blank spaces between lines.

    Hi @Yeslech ,

    Thanks for reaching out to the Brightspace Community.

    I'm curious about what content templates you are using. Are they HTML templates?

    Having additional information will help us to be able to recommend the best support path.
