My vscode IDE is not allowing me add new lines

Please I need help with stopping my vscode IDE from auto formatting, for example in the Laravel 8 from scratch course, where Mr Jeff talked about meta data, I can't get my title, excerpt and date on separate lines, does anyone have this same issue?

You have some plugin installed that cleans up your code on save, you need to change the rules for it or turn the plugin off.

nope, i dont even need to save, the moment I type something and hit the enter button to go to a new line, it just returns back to previous line

@Richard88 Try disabling all extensions and see if it fixes it. If it does, enable them one by one until you find the problematic one
