Comment:

 Hi @listalegal, and welcome to Trac.

 The WordPress Trac is for reporting bugs in the WordPress software, and
 not for support. For support, we have the [https://wordpress.org/support/
 Support Forums] available where many other volunteers help resolve
 specific site issues.

 Replying to [ticket:42856 listalegal]:
 > I have been trying to figure out why my blog posts are showing the
 published date twice, it's repeated one after the other.
 >
 > Look at the bottom of this blog post [http://reviewsz.net/blog/] right
 where it says Posted On.

 This seems to be related to your Theme or a plugin you're running. One of
 the timestamps is the publish date, the other the date that the post was
 updated:
 {{{
 <time class="entry-date published"
 datetime="2017-12-10T07:11:44+00:00">December 10, 2017</time>
 <time class="updated" datetime="2017-12-10T07:21:37+00:00">December 10,
 2017</time>
 }}}

 > As a separate issue, part of my post formatting disappears every time I
 save it and I go back to edit it. My <p> tags and end of line tags just
 disappear.

 This is most likely the intended behaviour of WordPress - manually added
 `<p>` tags that are added and trailing `<br>` tags may be stripped upon
 WordPress parsing the post.
 There [https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-wpautop/ exist plugins] which
 can disable this functionality, but as a result you'd need to add all
 paragraph tags as appropriate in the post.

 If you've got a specific example of where you believe WordPress is getting
 it incorrect, please open a ticket with the exact code which is being
 changed that you expect to retain.
