From Gemini:
The culprit isnât your textâit is the CSS styling engine (Tailwind CSS) that RapidWeaver Elements uses under the hood.
By default, Tailwind applies a âCSS Resetâ to your entire website. This intentionally strips out all default browser spacing and sizing. It makes all headings (<h2>, <h3>) the exact same size as regular text, and it removes all the empty space between paragraphs (<p>). It does this so developers have a blank slate, but it makes raw blog posts look like a giant, unformatted wall of text.
To fix this, you need to tell Elements to apply âarticle stylingâ to that specific block of content.
Here is how to solve it:
- In the left-hand menu of Elements, look under your Pages structure and click on the Post layout page (this is the master template page that designs how your individual blog posts look, right above your CMS items).
- On that layout screen, select the component that is outputting your Markdown body content.
- Look at your Inspector/Settings panel on the right side of the screen. You are looking for a toggle or setting called Prose, Rich Text, or Typography. Enable it.
- Alternative: If Elements just gives you a field to type in a custom CSS class for that component, simply type the word
proseinto the class field.
The prose class is Tailwindâs magic command that instantly restores all the proper font sizes for headings, spacing for paragraphs, and styling for lists. Once you apply that to your content container on the layout page, your entire article will instantly pop into the correct formatting!
Weâve not had any other reports of this, and it appears to be working as expected here, so weâll need a few more details to investigate further.

Question: does this only happen with newly created blog posts, or also with existing ones?
I couldnât notice any changes with my existing blog posts.
Do you have any additional Tailwind typography plugins installed?
I think itâs a mess - for me - keep forgetting to make paste as plain text - but even then it doesnât work for me - get a big block of text
Need to add line breaks
Donât have any tailwind extensions
Out of curiosity, what are you using to create your .md files??
I research on iPhone often times and put snippets into notes
Then go edit on main computer - then copy and paste into a duplicated .md file
Which program do you do your editing with??
If you are generating these articles in AI then AI has a tendency to inject weird artifacts in its output. This could be causing issues when copying the AI generated text and pasting into a third-party text editor.
If the above is your workflow, perhaps try pasting in plain text in a text editor like BBEdit and then clean it up a bit to remove any weird AI artifacts, before trying to paste it into Elements.

Thank youâŚ
Hopefully fixed it:
Made a keyboard shortcut with: Paste as Plain Text
Command + V
Now - anytime I copy from notes or other it should strip away the rich text formatting⌠yes?
