This week’s question comes from Paul Copcutt via voicemail who’s asking if there’s an issue with the formatting of a published post on LinkedIn.
Here are the images Paul sent me of the issue:
How it looks when editing.
How it looks after publishing.
How it looks when he went back into editing.
Final result.
The answer Paul received back from LinkedIn read as follows:
“If I understand you correctly you are facing issue with formatting a publishing post on LinkedIn. As per the screen shot you have provided, I can see that you are trying to remove additional spacing:
To add feed new lines into the post I would recommend you to use SHIFT+Enter instead of just Enter.”
That did appear to work.
That’s it for this week, please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions you would like me to answer on the show.
Have a great week.
Thank you so much for listening. I value your support and interest.

It can be difficult to get noticed in iTunes and one thing that can really make a difference is reviews. If you enjoy the show please take a minute to write an honest review in iTunes, it would be most appreciated.
If you are not sure how to write an iTunes review I have made a short video demonstrating how this is done.
