I can't make a new paragraph in theme Twenty Ten.

  • ropa38 · Member ·

    I can’t make a new paragraph. When I add pictures to a post, and have only a sentence of writing on the right side of picture, if I post another picture, it goes directly under the first sentence beside the first picture. I hope this is clear enough. I can try to space everything out the way I want it but when I save it, its back to being one long paragraph.

    Is it the problem with the theme or am I just computer challenged?

    See here please > http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#alignment

    The alignment icons in the WordPress editor are for aligning text; they are not for aligning images. They are used to achieve wrapping text around images on either the right or left hand side, or to display an image that’s centered without text on either side of it.

    Align-left means position left, with the rest of the content wrapping around the right side of the image.

    Align-right means position right, with the rest of the content wrapping around the left side of the image.

    Align-center means position center, with no wrap-around (= the rest of the content below the image).

    If the text beside the images does not occupy the same amount of space that the image beside it does then the text wrapping will continue and the images and text that follow will have a staggered appearance.

    To prevent the staggered effect what you do is insert the following snippet of code into the Text (HTML) editor after each image/text pair:
    <div style="clear:both;"></div>

    Worked like a charm. I wish I asked sooner and saved myself 2 hours of frustration.
    Many, many thanks.
