I wasn't familiar with the filter option -- I'm pretty new to wordpress.

Timethief, is there any "global search/find and replace" sort of function that can be used when composing posts?

Is there some way to tell which theme uses which punctuation protocol? Are you certain that some do code for double spaces after periods?

What you get will be what the theme is coded to produce unless you continue to code this at the end of every sentence.

I know that I can force this using the   html, but is there any way to keep double spaces after periods when pasting in content from an editor such as word, notepad, etc? In other words, so I don't have to search out every one and add the  ?

I write poetry, and I indent a lot of lines, so this is a big deal to me. Also, whenever I go to edit a work, the whole piece automatically reverts to some kind of default formatting, and double spaces (separating stanzas) and indentations all disappear. Why?! Please help me! This is driving me crazy!! Thank you.

I just opened it again added some more and the extra returns disappeared this time.

Firefox did keep the multiple spaces between paragraphs though.

Another reason to use Safari 3?

I'm going to contact staff and see if they will fix it so that FF keeps the multiple returns like Safari does.

With Safari it worked in the visual editor only.

Those wanting two spaces between sentences no longer have to jump through HTML hoops to get them. Just press the space bar multiple times and the spaces will be kept in the editor, and in the published post.

You can now also have multiple blank lines between paragraphs as well. Just hit the enter/return however many times you want. Again, no more HTML tricks are required.
