Just a quick observation, looking at your page source code it still links to a /wp/ directory. Not sure if this is part of the above problem or not though. Looks like your header.php file.

Hey, tiger
Thanks for checking up. I just went back through my source, and you’re right, most things are calling a /wp/ directory, but I think that’s correct. All of WP’s squishy bits [by this, I mean organs and inner workings] are in that directory … all I really did for the “Great Migration” was to copy wp/index.php and wp/.htaccess over to my root directory and then correct the permalink settings in the dashboard. It’s strange, cos the items one is able to set a structure for [categories and tags] work fine … but the items one can’t change [at least to my knowledge], i.e. posts, build themselves incorrectly. Or something.

I don’t know. I have a love / hate relationship with problems like this ??

Thanks again, and let me know if you come up with anything else!

I think that I found your problem possibly. It looks like it might be in your single.php file. If you look at your source code from your <div id=”wrapper”> to your <!– Start Comments Form –> it looks like your misisng some </div> close divs. It was hard to tell exactly how many and where exactly without spending more time on it but you might want to go through them and check it out. It looks like the page is reading the style.css but without close div it could cause the problem that your seeing. Hope this helps, if it does keep informed.

You know, I read something about single.php either yesterday or the day before, and when I went to inspect it, I found nothing. It would appear my theme [Mumrik] doesn’t have a single.php file. This may be a silly question, but how would I go about figuring out what file it does use to generate a single post page … just trial and error, right?

There’s a file called “page.php”, but I’ll have to check up on that before I go tinkering with it. Thanks for checking it out again, though!

I’ve had half an “Aha!”! I started deconstructing my theme’s index.php, removing all the php calls and then putting them back in one by one. The one that breaks the #Wrapper div is <?php comments_template(); ?>, so I’m reading up on that right now. That function calls my theme’s comments.php file, so there’s got to be something unsavory happening when it builds it out. Idk. I feel like I’m at least in the right ballpark now, though.

Let me know if anything comes to you. Thanks!

I could only view your source through IE so it’s hard to tell which files are building your layout. I didn’t think that it was your page.php file since other pages show up fine. It is possible that it’s your comments.php file. The main thing is that it looks like you’re missing a few </div>s, I’m just not sure exactly what file. did notice one thing though, disable allowing comments in edit post for your test2 article and see if that clears it up. If so then it would most definately be the comments.php file.

And there’s the other half!

There was an extra </div> lurking in Mumrik’s comments.php, which, when eradicated, allowed for my page to display itself properly. Now, if I were only allowed to update my own browser on this computer I purchased through my school, I’d be able to see everything in its full glory.

Thanks, tiger, for all your help!

Best wishes!
