    Installed the p and then checked the cde WP was applying to the paragraphs using the AardVark extension in FF (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4111). It says "p class para". the is no para class in my CSS.

    I'm using WP 2.1.3. I navigated to the Code tab and placed tags After that I saved the post. Now when i open the same post and again go to the Code view, the tags aren't there anymore?

    You can have a look at my blog, the top post is the one that doesn't retain the p tags. I installed Ardvark extension for FF (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4111) to see which code was WP applying to the paragraphs. It says "p class para" I have no class by the name of para in my CSS.

    Thanks in advance.

    Apologies: I installed 2.1.2 from scratch and all seems to be well -- thanks for this plugin! I'll report back if there's any weirdness.

    wildframe, cutout: I'm using it on WordPress 2.1 and it works fine. Can you give me some details about how it's not working for you?

    No dice on WP 2.1.1. Any chance of an upgrade?

    Using Wordpress 2.1, the one that has the p/div tag issue.
    This plugin is a godsend to me. Thanks ever so much. I have gone two nights without sleep to fix that damn bug and now I can finally get some rest.

    Cheers to you, man.

    Excellent plug-in. The auto P tag was driving me crazy. Thanks for taking the time to fix the problem.
