When updating an article with the API, I am finding that any blank paragraphs in the article are stripped away. This is somewhat annoying, as we often use blank paragraphs as a way to have some padding below text before the next paragraph, heading, or image.
More specifically, we may export an article with a blank paragraph that is marked up with ‘\n<p class=\"no-margin\"></p>\n’. If we feed that body directly back into the article to update it, that entire block of HTML is removed. Is there any way to preserve this?
The below image shows the blank line added between the first two lines of the article.
