TinyMCE adds two brs after every p
Hi

I have a rather annoying problem. Every time I publish or preview the content from an Rich Text Editor(TinyMCE) it adds two tags after every section. And I can't seem to make it stop, I've tried all the TinyMCE configurations I could find on TinyMCEs developer page. Everything looks fine in editor mode, and also in the html in editor mode.

I am testing this in IE9, but have also tried in Chrome, with the same result.

Has anyone encounted the same problem, and know how to fix it?

On an sidenote:

When I add these to the TinyMCE configuration - which makes the enter key add an instead of an tag.
```
<config key="force_p_newlines">false</config>
<config key="force_br_newlines">true</config>
<config key="forced_root_block">false</config>
```
When these are added to the configuration, IE9 won't jump to next line in the editor, unless I press a key. This is working in Chrome, which jumps to the next line, when hitting enter.

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 .

Hi,

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

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

Still everything looks fine the editor mode, and in html mode inside the editor, there are no tags between the 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.

https://our.umbraco.org/forum/umbraco-7/using-umbraco-7/54785-Paste-from-word-help-needed

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="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>
```
