Blog post formatting getting cut off at the bottom

  • I just published the second post to my blog. The first one, which was shorter, looked fine. This one, which goes on a bit longer, looks fine until the comments section. It goes into the black area at the bottom and loses its CSS formatting. Here’s what I mean:
    See the bottom of the “self image” post vs. the Diet Aid post.

    I thought I could change it in the “writing” setting by increasing the “size of post box” # of lines, but that didn’t seem to make a difference.

    Thanks for any and all help!

  • Looks like the image:

    https://davesink.com/wp-content/themes/Davesink_wp_site2/images/bg-container-top-inner.gif

    which is 2×1500 pixels is not long enough to cover the black background color. That is what is causing it.

    The problem seems to be that the 2px by 1500px background image you have set for #container-top-inner is too short to contain all of the content. It’s set to repeat only along the x-axis, so if your content exceeds 1500px along the y-axis, the background image will stop short, allowing the black background of #container-top-inner to seep through.

    The comment form is not losing its CSS formatting at all. It just looks that way it’s against the black.

    EDIT: Ah, dgwyer beat me to it. I was typing at the same time he posted. But yes, I suggest you either make that background image super tall (say, 3000px) or make the background color of that div white or gray instead of black.
