    Once a post is published, the breaks (br) are turning into non-breakable spaces (nbsp) - so paragraphs are not being created as they were when the post was being created. We haven't used any new plugins, so I'm wondering if this is an effect from the recent genesis update? Once the post is published, we have to go back in and edit the html and replace all the breaks that were changed to nbsp back into br breaks. It has affected all the past blog posts now, too. In the visual portion of the blog post editor the breaks are visually there. Please advise.

    This is a WordPress core issue and isn't specific to Genesis. If you want to go to the next line without nbsp breaks, try hitting Shift+Enter instead of just Enter in the editor box. That should get you just below the previous line with no gap. Hope that helps!
