Formatting code of posts

Using Ghost

Is there any way to adjust the code of posts in the Ghost editor?

I’m working with the Wave theme, and really one of the only changes I’d like to make is how the theme displays border-left on blockquotes. There’s spacing between the paragraphs in the blockquote, which ends up separating the border-left (I’d like it to be one continuous line across all the paragraphs within a blockquote) but this seems to be due to the fact that Ghost gives each paragraph its own set of

tags rather than one set of tags for several paragraphs.

This is pretty minor in the end, but I thought I’d ask and see. Very new to Ghost. Pretty limited skillset, but I’ve been running a Wordpress for years, so I’m used to being able to adjust the code of each post.

I’m on Mac and if I hold down the shift key and hit return it doesn’t separate the block quotes.

Is that what you are asking?

That’s not a theme issue but rather how Ghost works. In order to make a continuous blockquote with multiple paragraphs, bring the beginning of the second paragraph up to the very end of the first paragraph. Then hit shift + enter twice. That’ll inserts two breaks (<br>s), thus inserting gaps within the blockquote between paragraphs.

OH MY GOD! Thank you both! I couldn’t figure out how to do this. Once I saw that it was separating the blockquotes by paragraph, I knew it wasn’t a theme issue, but I couldn’t figure out the solution. Really appreciate the help.
