a lot of times they do not want a live link in a post. usually if you submit it again it will go thru with their corrections at least for me it does.

@lovescats

There were no live links in any post that I have been trying to type last night. It's some sort of glitch with their software.

*** I wonder if it has been fixed? Nope.. still will not let me put breaks in what I am writing.

Okay, I might be a complete, stoopid lump when it comes to anything "cell phones," but THIS I can advise a FIX for ya.

HTML is the "computer code" that this Forum uses for out posts.

Let's see if I can make these "HTML Instructions" understandable, for those who are really perturbed,, & frustrated by this glitch:

1) Per usual, Type your text, & (per usual) at the bottom, select "POST" (as usual)

2) If on checking your post, you see it "run together with no paragraphs," per usual, when u want to make changes in your test, Now Select "EDIT" on your very same "run together" post

3) While you're in "EDIT" select "HTML" (above your text). You'll see all HTML code. (with a lot of < and > and / characters)

4) Where you want paragraphs in what you see is your already "HTML CODE" text, make a new line in that HTML code you see, and type <br> on this new line of HTML text, where you want paragraphs.

5) When finished finessing your text in HTML, Then, above, where you saw & selected "HTML" select " PREVIEW" (That shows you the result of the <br> you newly typed in your HTML text to take).

6) Select "POST" below, where you usually select "POST"

(Note: sometimes I may have to do the above procedure a couple of times in order for this <br> (=paragraph break) to take.

I pray the above makes sense, cause if the above instructions work, YOU JUST WROTE "HTML" computer language!! CONGRATS!

Until this Forum fixes this "no paragraph breaks" this problem will continue. I had to do the above HTML with EVERY ONE of my Forum Posts, ALL DAY yesterday!

I hit return, type in *** then return again and type the next paragraph.

It's a bit clunky but it makes posts more readable.

I do that and it still doesn't work.

None of this works. Thus, my reason for inquiring on the Customer care forum yesterday. I worked on a post for 15 minutes that would stop with that unwanted HTML message. There ain't but so many ways you can post here. You copy and paste, or you write it out like I am doing now. I allow for paragraphs (cause I hate a run on paragraph or sentence).

I hit enter for a new paragraph. I use two spaces between each new sentence too. Still does not work. It's a mess. The paragraph spacing thing has been going on for a long time for me along with my notifications. The newest bug to come knocking at my door is in fact, the unwanted HTML when there is none.

@JoyFilled Warrior

I appreciate you taking the time to write out the above instructions, but I am not jumping through all of those hoops to write a few sentences. (smile) I am being sincere when I say thank you for taking the time to write out the above insturctions.

I rarely come here on my phone, most always on my laptop and I've been getting this message.

The only good thing about it is, I can go back and tag someone who I was replying to. I never got into the hand of that.

@gardenman???? Never had problems before with paragraph breaks.

Is this something new you are doing???

Some posters never used paragraphs (hence the "paragraphs are you friend" remarks to some long winded run-on posts).

We always had the ability to use paragraphs. Until now.
