  1. I'm stupid, just say it. Though 'br' lists as a tag in my allowed markup (as here), entering it to force spaces after blockquotes, which force the next line following up, does nothing.

    Any ideas?

  2. I actually have the same problem; <br> doesn't work, it just shows up in the post as-is.

  5. That works, except for one issue - blockquotes. I was trying to use it (inappropriately, it seems) to force a space after a blockquote. Here's what's happening:

    Test post

    Text bumped right up against blockquote.

    Okay, shoot - blockquote isn't defined here, so I can't show you what's happened. Try here:

    ...bottom third of that first post, right after the blockquote.

    No matter how many spaces I place after the blockquote end tag, or instances of the br tag, it stays flush.

  6. Okay, fixed it by putting:

    margin-bottom: 1em;

    ...in the CSS. :)

  7. I wonder if someone smarter than me could write a plugin for Markdown or Textile? That would beat these tags by a mile.

  8. I might do it sometime, but for now I'd say just use the Comment Quicktags - press a button and the code is inserted, if your problem is remembering the codes.
