    Hi All,
    I’ve noticed that my RH panel has dropped to continue to be aligned with my first post – even though there are now 8 or 9 posts.
    So this makes it difficult for a new contributor to immediately find the registration link.
    Can anyone advise how I can make the RH panel float to the top and stay there?

    many thanks,
    Gerry D-R

  • I am not sure what you mean by “has dropped to continue to be aligned with my first post” but look at the HTML-Code in your posts. I have (had) the same problem after putting a YouTube-File in a post – the complete right-hand-panel disappeared in some browsers when this post was on the same page.

    But maybe you can give out a demo-link to the site/page (or maybe screenshot) to see, what happens.

    EDIT: your background-image is also missing!

    Hi fht
    What I mean is that you have to scroll all the way down to get to the links panel on the right hand side. I’m not sure if this has anything to do with the html in the posts. If you’d care to have a look the site is: https://www.sedonafriendsdownunder.com

    EDIT: I didn’t know I had a background image! What is that?

    See the validation:
    https://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A//www.sedonafriendsdownunder.com/
    (and make a habit to validate when something goes wrong)
    Add the missing closing div tag and you should be fine.

    Sorry guys. Have tried everything I think you are telling me and still not getting anywhere.
    very frustrating!
    Inserted closing div tag – nothing.
    Anything else you can think of?

    I’d really appreciate it!

    Hi Guys!
    Well I fiddled about until I ‘passed validation’.
    But the problem is not yet solved. You still have to cursor all the way to the bottom of the index page to get to the right hand panel.
    Plus the header is slightly off centre.

    Any clues?

    Thanks for your interest.

    Hi again, Guys
    Still having problems getting my right hand panel back to the top of the page.
    Tried substituting some other themes but still same problem. Also the Header for the Kubrick theme is slightly off center.
    NB If I go to the ‘About’ page, the header is fine And the right hand panel is also in the correct place.

    Any ideas anyone?

    change it to a theme where the sidebar is present on the single pages. If you do that, I will take a look further. Kubrick is a bitch to troubleshoot for that sort of stuff because the sidebar isnt shown in single page view.

    For one thing, turn OFF the RTE. I just had to fix a guy’s 12 blog post’s the other week, because he was copy/pasting from a MS WORD or some type of word processor..

    https://www.vindictivebastard.net/images2/turnoff-rte.gif

    And yes, his blog looked exactly the same way.. After I went through and looked at his posts..in under: Manage => Posts in the Blog’s Control panel..

    He had mile long URLs to crap, Extra added <DIV>S and no ENDING </DIV> tags. Remove the Crap Code first! If you’re going to use a word Processor of some sort.. copy/paste from that, to NotePad2 first!

    Let me know how what I suggested, works ok? ??

    uh, spencer, that site validates. Mind you that doesnt mean that there isnt a div issue or a rte, however..

    Yeah, If I remember right..that guy’s blog I fixed, was passing validation too. =/ I remember, cause it’s the first thing I checked for.. thought it was weird myself.. but, his posts were screwing things up for him.. ??

    Notice the 0.P.’s first two articles, I think it is.. they don’t look/appear to be a normal added article.. looks more like a copy/paste job. =P I dunno though.. might just be hidden lengthy URLs too.. hard to say.. =/

    spencerp

    Hmm..It’s hard to say, just figured I’d drop in my 2 cents, that I’ll need to spend tomorrow anyway..haha. I’m off to bed now..later my fellow peeps! =) =P If you’re still doing here whoo, have funnzies..hahaha! =)

    Good Catch Whoo! =) I could have skimmed through the posts, but.. was just too tired this morning.. =( Thanks for pointing out the culprit post Whoo! =) ??

    Hey Guys this last suggestion worked perfectly!

    I am delighted and will have to watch out for future posts which give the same problem.

    Very many thanks to spencerp and whooami!

    Gerry D-R

    Glad to hear that. =)

    spencerp

    Whoo is just as awesome as I am.. so.. =P

    Wow.. I’ve been having the same problem for a week now and I cant seem to get mine corrected either. Mine started when I added pictures to my posts. I did read the error page, but I guess I’m too dumb to fix it. Any advice please?
