I use Word Press for my blog. Anytime I edit a post I lose all of my basic HTML formating, stuff like paragraphs, breaks and such. It's quite annoying. Is this normal or is something wrong? FWIW I don't lose things like links, embedded photos, or colors, just basic formatting.
 
Are you using a WYSIWYG editor plugin? Which version of WP do you have? Does this plugin description address your issue? If not, I'll go from there to try and help. :)
 
It did that to me too. Just go to the options in Wordpress and deactivate the WYSIWYG editor. It will be HTML only and you will not lose your formatting. I have no idea why it does that but I dont need the editor anyway.
