WYSIWYG - Still useless

I just did a Blog entry on my site. Something I haven't done in a while and I noticed that Dolphin still does not interact properly with the editor.

What You See Is Not What You Get!

It's really annoying. I hate having to add an extra carriage return in between each paragraph. Are we going to fix this soon or is it something that's going to be added as a feature in Dolphin 8?

What exactly is the problem?

Then paragraphs all run together. There's no spacing between them unless you hit the carriage return twice (That's the enter button for those of you that have never seen a typewriter before)

It works, but there's very little spacing between new lines, meaning you have to hit enter twice to have a noticeable separation. You're welcomed to create a ticket in Trac for it.

It's been created before. Has been an issue since 7 came out

 I think its best to wait on version 9 or 10 the way its going now..

I couldn't find any tickets, so I created a new one.

I think this might be helpful.

 Yeah we have this problem as with probably every other Boonex site. It's ridiculous that in the editor you have to create such big gaps between paragraphs just to result in a standard line break. Typical backwards logic from Boonex that appears not to have been addressed in the umpteen bug fixes occurring every week!

The problem was fixed yesterday:

Wow. I think that's the first time I ever complained about something and had them go right in and fix it!

What the hell's up with that? I would watch the sky to make sure it doesn't start falling!

(thanks Boonex)

It helps if you make a ticket.

When someone posts on my forum, and they do a line break by hitting enter twice, they instead get what looks like 3 breaks. This is 7.0.9...

What you type is:

LINE1
LINE2

LINE3

what you get is:

LINE1

LINE 2

LINE3

Any help would be much appreciated.

Anyone?

 RE:

 In the file: forum/layout/base_en/css/blank.sss    around line 10

 Change:

p {

margin:0;

}

TO:

p }

margin-bottom: 1em;

}

You should make the change in  In the file: forum/layout/base/css/blank.sss so tha recompiling the language doesn't overwrite the css file in base_en

Clear the /cache and cache_public directories, and your browser cache to see the changes. 

Thanks houstonlively, that seems to have done the trick!! You rock! Does this fix it for the whole site, or just the forums?

But for anyone else needing this, it's blank.css, not .sss

And the correct code is:

TO:

p {
margin-bottom: 1em;
}

 Thanks for spotting those two typos.
