From testing it seems that it only occurs in an empty paragraph.

It’s still half a year before 2020. But still not fixed, who knows what other editors?

[imyhui]

It’s been two years, still this error

@soulteary addressed the problem, ref: Issue 9801.
However it's still not merged. The bug still there.

[kwmr-zz]

The bug still there.

[cmsax]

Insert markdown block as a workaround.

@gpoitch Hi, want to know can this PR be merged? The bug has broken the editor of the ghost blog for more than one year TryGhost/Ghost#9801

[gpoitch]

@bin16 this is just an issue not a PR. Happy to merge a PR and release if someone fixes it.

[xiao99xiao]

I thought at least there was a partial fix #661

[bin16]

@bin16 this is just an issue not a PR. Happy to merge a PR and release if someone fixes it.

[ksuk]

Is this the same and will it take time to correct?
I think everyone is doing their best!

[Smith-Cruise]

There will never fix it!

[ksuk]

If the line breaks and input do not work in Japanese, do you mean that there is no plan to correct it?

[Smith-Cruise]

This problem had existed for two years. 😞

[ksuk]

😭😭

[bobby285271]

3 years now... :-(

[cmsax]

Work around: insert a markdown block then input & edit in this block.

[gclove]

When will this problem be resolved ... I am looking forward to it.

[quxiaolong1504]

3 years now... :-(

[secsilm]

Another solution: type a space first, then input what you want.

[kwmr-zz]

^ That method doesn't work well in my environment. (macOS 10.5.5beta Safari)
It seems to work well on iOS.

[kwmr-zz]

Finally, it has been three years.
I guess that means we should just give up on the solution.

[apfelbox]

Instead of just flooding this issue and annoying the contributors.. how about someone of the "+1" and "will this ever be fixed" crowd invest their time into providing a pull request with a fix instead? 😊

[Lemon2ee]

@kwmr yeah maybe they're like "f**k it, it's been three years and those who experienced this bug might already found an alternative way to solve this. I'll pretend this bug non-exist "

btw, try IA writer, it's great to have a local post file and u can publish the post in it.

[xiao99xiao]

Great we now have another great PR fix here. Let's see how long will they wait until that PR goes outdated. Or will someone merge it and slap in my face🤪
