    Hello, I think I broke my theme but I don’t know where.
    When I hit my home page the post view right.

    When I press the blog link in categories the post view is wrong and the bottom post is wrapping around the top post.

    any body have a idea where I should look for the problem? I think its the theme because when i change themes it don’t do that.

    update :i think ill wipe it

  • If you provide a link to a page that looks right and a page that looks wrong, then maybe someone here could help.

    “the bottom post is wrapping around the top post”

    actually sounds like something that might happen if you have an unclosed list tag in the body of one post

    Sorry I ended up wiping the whole site/with database. I started from scratch and uploaded original theme without tweaks and I still had the same problem. So I think it has something to do with the new version of wp. I just cant find where in my theme I would fix the problem. I would hate to have to switch my theme now.

    you can see the problem when you click the My blog link in categories. If I have a image in the top post . the bottom post is wrapping around the top image.

    when you click on the home link at the top of the page it shows the post’s correctly .

    when I switch to classic theme. the problem goes away. so I know its in my theme but it didn’t do that in previous versions.

    I can post some code if it helps, I just don’t know what to post as of now.

    my site is
    https://www.markarcaro.com

    thanks

    That page with the 2 posts looks fine to me in both IE and FF, so I’m not sure what the problem is.

    Your stylesheet (in your theme) has a section called Content in which the post image is told to float: left; and so it does.

    Take a look at the default theme css. Find the section (about 2/3 down?) titled /* Begin Images */.
    That will give you an idea of what you can do to control image placement directly in your posts.
    You can also do some searches on image post position css and other such combos of terms to read more about managing image placement.

    hi thanks for looking , did you try to click on blog link? and did it still look normal? thats usually when the bottom post is wrapped around the top post image.

    when I hit the home ink they are normal

    So, why don’t you compare the source code of the two pages to see what the difference is? Because there is a huge difference…

    (hint: look for <div style="clear:both;"></div>)
