Hello. I just purchased the PM plugin for WPforo.
 
In the PM box when I type there is a space after the paragraph, but when I sent it space is lost.
 
Any ideas on this?
 
See attached sample of text when typing, then what it looks like when sent.
 
I checked the back end and there is a <p> code after each return.
 
I am using Enfold and WP 5.7.

@jason-toth,

The editor and the message list are different environments with different CSS style rules for paragraphs. You can use this CSS code to make them closer. Insert this CSS code in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Styles > Custom CSS Code textarea, save it, delete all caches, go to forum front-end and press Ctrl+F5:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfpm-msg-inner p {
     margin-bottom: 7px;
}

Thank you very much. That worked perfectly. I wanted to add more space so I just changed it to 12px and looks good to me now.

Best, Jason

One more issue, not sure if this was caused by the above code. But on the posts, they look like they have too much space (leading) now. Space after and before paragraphs are fine, but the actual line leading is too much. See attached sample of a post page:

Is this related to the CSS I just added or do I need to use another CSS to adjust the leading?

Thanks.

@jason-toth

the space comes from your WP theme

add this CSS Code (Custom CSS)

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpforo-post-content p {
    line-height: 20px !important;
}
