I just noticed that I couldn't move the caret between two spaces to insert a link. Happy to give an approving ✅ instead of having to figure it out myself! 😅

In WordPress 6.4 before #56341 was applied, when multiple spaces are inserted in a paragraph block, the following behavior occurs:
- Multiple spaces are visually preserved in the editor
- In the front end, multiple spaces become a single space
In this PR, which reverts #56341, when multiple spaces are inserted in a paragraph block, the following behavior occurs:
- In the editor, multiple spaces become a single space when you save a post and reload the browser. However, multiple spaces remain on the code editor
- In the front end, multiple spaces become a single space
Is this the expected behavior with this PR? The screencast below shows what happens when I insert multiple spaces with this PR.

Yes, that's how it worked before, and that's how HTML works: multiple normal spaces collapse to a single space. Som editors pad with non breaking spaces, but this leads to buggy behaviour and non breaking spaces getting littered all over. |

I see, then there's no problem 👍
I would like to add a backport label because this issue fixes a bug introduced in WP6.5. |

Hi! I submitted #56855 and #58605 (more to come... (*))
Assuming you speak of within param (
[Parameter(Position=0, Mandatory=$False)]
[string] $action = "discovery"
)
That's no excuse. WordPress is used by a lot of coders / developers, who display code of some sort on their website / blog. That no one complained doesn't mean no one noted the difference in how code is displayed within pre tags. (*) Just noticed that when I copy one code block in Gutenberg to another location or post, it copies |
This should not apply to code tags or pre tags. As the screencast below shows, multiple spaces are maintained in both the front end and the editor. 5e2c51f7a62f67cb734fa0a590499e49.mp4
My understanding is that this is an intentional change to unify line break codes that differ depending on the OS. |
Note that as part of curating the Gutenberg 17.8 changelog, I added the label [Feature] Rich Text to this PR to better categorize it. Please let me know if there is a different label that would be a better fit. |
Reverts #56341
Partly fixes #58659.
Alternatively we need to only do this when whitespace is not preserved. But that becomes a bit messy imo.
The downside of reverting this is that you cannot see multiple spaces on the front-end, but 🤷♀️ it's not that anyone has complained so far!
