Black n White Theme bug?

  • Hello,

    I am using the Black n White theme by zachlive.
    I chose this theme because it was the closest to what I was looking for…closest, meaning, once I uploaded it I had to make a few adjustments to get it to look how I wanted it.
    Nothing too drastic…but now I notice when I visit my blog site and click on a Category, and let’s say I click on the title of an entry so that I can view that entry only, what happens is the sidebar will go below the entry and other parts of the design will reposition themselves as well. Weird.
    If anyone thinks they can help, let me know and i can give more details.

    Thank You.

  • This is a very common problem…long story short whats happening is something in the content section is expanding into the sidebars territory and pushing it down. Just google and you will find plenty of help on this topic.

    I’m having the same problem, and I haven’t found the solution yet – could anybody point me towards the specific issue in this theme?

    I thought I’d post the solution even though this is quite old. The problem is caused by the sidebar and footer being left out of the wrapper due to a misplace div. The culprit is in comments.php.

    If you find
    <!-- You can start editing here. -->
    You will see
    <?php if ($comments) : ?>
    followed by
    <div class="comments-template">
    This means if the condition isn’t met, you’re going to be missing the opening div but you will still have a closing div at the end.

    The solution is to simply take
    <div class="comments-template">
    and put it before
    <?php if ($comments) : ?>
