Hi Barry - I am using community template for my new site onedrumfestival.com. I am having a hard time formatting the text - i want the line spacing in the modules to be single space and I cant seem to modify the text ... any thoughts?? Thanks - Terry

    You have some weird <address> tag

    <address><strong><font size="2">Todd Roach - Middle Eastern Frame Drumming<br />
    </font></strong></address>
    <address><strong><font size="2">Bob Bloom - Drum Circle
    Facilitation</font></strong></address>
    <address><strong><font size="2">Marcus Santos -
    Brazilian</font></strong></address>
    <address><strong><font size="2">Stuart Patton -Taiko</font></strong></address>
    <address><strong><font size="2">Otha Day - West African
    </font></strong></address>
    <address><font size="2"><strong><font size="2">Gaia Girls - Dance
    </font></strong><br />
    </font></address>

    I'd copy and paste into notepad or text editor to clean it

    Hi Barrie - I got that - so I cleaned it up - changed formatting and it is
    still double spaced. Something else is going on.... hmmmmm

    Hi Barrie - thank you so much for fixing that for me - but I am left totally
    puzzled - I saw the keystrokes for how you did it by looking at source code
    - but I cant recreate that formatting from the style drop down menu and
    there is no way I am going type that in manually - - can you tell me an easy
    way to replicate that line spacing - I always used the address format on my
    other sites but that is not working on this template. Sorry to be a bother

    <address> is usually used to denote author
    http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_address.asp

    All I did was copy the text, paste it into notepad, COPIED it again
    from notepad, and then pasted.

    This clears all formatting.

    I then just put in some line breaks by pressing shift-enter

    Is it published in a viable module location?

    It is located in the "footer" module location - which I assume is viable -
    and it was part of the template.. It just does not appear on my screen - can
    you see it on yours?

    It looks to be called "copyright"

    When I click on that link I see the word copyright down there - does that
    mean I should put the footer in the "copyright" location? I thought the word
    copyright was simply in the footer - not a viable module location. Or does
    that mean I need to create a new module called "copyright"??

    The module location is called "copyright"

    So, when you make the module, select that as the position
