I'm having a problem. When I write the poem in here, the first and second stanza keep mushing together (WritersCo doesn't seem to be recognizing the first 'enter' or space I put in). It happened with my the other poems I put up (today) as well. What's up?

(Also posted this in Help, but wasn't sure about the traffic level of that page>)

We have to remember the techie people here, are techie people and not writers. They may not know literary jargon, so you may need to clarify what I write below to make sure they understand fully.

I did a few tests see 1.tests.spacing test (I see what you mean). When there is supposed to be a space at the start of the sentence WC doesn't show it, but for some reason after a double return sentences start with a space.

Ah, thanks! Though I can write ok, my communication skills are ZIP! I'm trying to work at it, sorry.

Not to worry! It's all about having at least one person understand, and I think we've got that sorted! ;)

WritersCo doesn't start the .SWIKITEXT text with a paragraph tag. You can get around this (for the time being) by doing the following:

------------------
[space][enter]
[enter]
Some text
------------------

Hopefully [Hedda] will fix it, but if he doesn't understand what is needed I'll work on making sure that text is displayed as intended as some point.

Thanks. That does seem to work, although the space is larger than the ones for the other lines. It's funny, because now all my writings are like that, but I know that they weren't before...There must be some changes going on.

Yeah, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any better temporary fix for that issue.

There were some changes, but that wasn't an intentional result as far as I know.
