How to assign titles to paragraphs, followed by a line break?

Question

If I want to give a title to a paragraph I can just use \paragraph{Respective Title} *Text*

However, I cannot put a line break between the title and the text, since it would give a compilation error.

I'm looking for something like what can be see on this Wikipedia page.

Answer 1

titlesec package can do:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{titlesec}

\titleformat{\paragraph}{\normalfont\normalsize\bfseries}{\theparagraph}{1em}{}
\titlespacing*{\paragraph}{0pt}{3.25ex plus 1ex minus .2ex}{1.5ex plus .2ex}

\begin{document}


\paragraph{title}

text

\end{document}
