How to Change Line Spacing in WordPress

Introduction

Line spacing plays a significant role in the overall readability of an article. It is the space between lines or paragraphs. Most Word processors feature some sort of line spacing options and WordPress is no exception. Experienced WordPress users already know how to add line spaces but someone who is just starting out might need to understand how to change line spacing in WordPress Editor. If you are an absolute beginner with WordPress here is how you can change line spacing in WordPress.

1. Manually

There are mainly two ways to change line spacing in WordPress. The first way is to do it manually in which we use WordPress default options to add single or double-line spaces in between posts and pages. The second way is to use a line spacing plugin to make the process simple. I will explain both the ways so you can use any one of them as per your need.

Manually means using the default WordPress line spacing options. One can add a double line space or single line space manually in the WordPress editor.

Double Line Spacing

WordPress Block Editor gives the option to add double line space. To add a double line space anywhere in your posts or pages hit Enter and a new paragraph will be added. Most of you might be already adding double line spacing by hitting Enter.

Double Line Space

Single Line Spacing

Adding double line spacing is not a problem for many but adding a single line spacing is. There might be occasions like writing an address where single line spacing is much more suitable than double line spacing. To add a single line space in between posts and pages press Shift+Enter. Basically instead of pressing just enter you have to press Shift and Enter.

2. Using A Plugin

If default line spacing in WordPress is not sufficient enough you should use a plugin to add line spacing. The plugin I suggest all of you use is named Spacer. It enables adding any number of line spacing so you can use them while writing posts in WordPress editor or designing pages. Follow the below steps to install and use the Spacer plugin.

Step 1: Log in to your WordPress Dashboard, hover on Plugins, and tap on Add New.
