I had no idea about all that stuff. Would have saved a lot of struggling before hand. That helps--got it working right!

To get single spacing hold the SHIFT key down when you click ENTER at the end of the paragraph.

I can't not have stanzas break the exact way that a contributor's piece is written. Today, to no avail, can I create paragraph spaces (stanza breaks) for a new posting on my dashboard. The same thing happened yesterday or day before with the same piece so I just left it languishing and hoped it would be back to normal today. Anyone know how to resolve this?

In the edit stage, the stanza/paragraph breaks are there when I place them and when I save the draft or preview, it consistently lumps the whole poem together and the breaks disappear. I've tried and retried multiple times. It does the same thing whether I copy and paste the piece or type in the lines (luckily it's not a long poem). I don't know what to do about it. And I've switched themes a few times already in the life of this blog. Any thoughts on what could help? Does anyone else writing/posting poems find problems with creating stanza breaks when you need them inside certain themes? It's not the first time I've seen it but it usually goes away and this time it won't. Sigh.

It's #13 in the link below; you just create the space where you want it to go, click the icon and it will create the link. You can also do it by hand by placing <!--more--> in the code area.

One other thing is that your blog looks like it has a lot of content that's been pasted from other websites. The mix of formatting is causing some errors on your blog; there are a couple of icons which can help with the formatting as well, #17F and 17H. Hope that helps.

http://gunnyg.wordpress.com/2008/01/

to look like this one (not mine)...

http://www.ronpaulwarroom.com/

I want my posts on my blog to appear w/o the entire post showing--as in the second example, above, where only part of the post shows and a "Read More" link to the remainder of the posts.

Thank you for your kind attention.
