Very strange. When you're in the RTE do you press enter when going to a new line or shift-enter? The last one will generate a <br/>.

Hi,

It doesn't matter which I press, the result is the same.. Or almost, it seems that the output is _always_ two <br> tags.

1: If i use 'enter', and adds an <p> tag, it adds two <br> tags to the output.
2: If i use 'shift+enter', and adds an <br> tag, it only adds one extra <br> tag to the out.

Still everything looks fine the editor mode, and in html mode inside the editor, there are no <br> tags between the <p> tags, these are only added on the output. And if I reload the editor, they are still not there in editor mode, so they aren't stacking either.

I know this is old, but one of my team came across a very similar problem.  In the end it was caused by how the field was being output on the page.

The pagefield was being inserted as <umbraco:Item field="content" stripParagraph="true" convertLineBreaks="true" runat="server" /> whereas what it needed to be inserted as was <umbraco:Item field="content" runat="server" />.

Hi,

Did you ever get this resolved? I am having the same issue.

If I copy and paste plain text out of notepad into the RTE instead of separating the paragraphs with

it separates them with

.

I tried all the config settings as other posts suggest and no effect

Hi,

I finally figured this out with a little help from another post I found. Well for Umbraco 7.6 which I am guessing is different from when this post was initially created.

Here is the new setup for the config/tinyMceConfig.config file which works for me. It also cleans up the nasty html formatting when copy and pasting from Microsoft Word.

<customConfig>
    <!--    <config key="myKey">mySetting</config>-->
    <config key="entity_encoding">raw</config>
    <config key="paste_as_text">true</config>
    <config key="paste_text_sticky">true</config>
    <config key="paste_text_sticky_default">true</config>
    <config key="codemirror">
      {
      "indentOnInit": false,
      "path": "../../../../lib/codemirror",
      "config": {
      },
      "jsFiles": [
      ],
      "cssFiles": [
      ]
      }
    </config>
  </customConfig>
