Line Breaks Get Removed

Too many line breaks get stripped

If I indent text, and I use line breaks before and after that indented text. Things look right in the editor, but are improperly formatted when the post itself is viewed.

Forum posts are ok. Wiki posts start looking strange

Forum posts are ok. Wiki posts start looking strange. See how I have a line above and below this indentation?

wiki posts look like this. Not indented text here.

Indented. No space above or below. All crammed together. If I make a line break in the editor, it disappears.

Forum post, line space above and below. Formatted. Looks great!

If this was a wiki post instead of a forum post, it would look completely different, and the formatting would be ruined at any location where I had indented text.

Tested it here and the behavior is the same between wiki post and regular post: https://www.vaultwiki.org/demo/Indent-Test

Make sure that your line breaks are placed inside the INDENT tags, or they won't be preserved. vBulletin strips preceding and following line breaks from around block elements INDENT and LIST. This behavior is defined in the vBulletin post parser and is inherited without modification by the wiki parser class.

Furthermore, from an HTML standpoint, a (line-break, indent) looks different from (indent > line-break) in exactly the way you've described and is expected behavior.

If you're using the WYSIWYG editor, it will probably be difficult to determine whether the breaks are inside or outside, but this is vBulletin's limitation.
