Thanks, that’s the link I needed.

Thanks esmi – that worked a treat. For anyone else reading this, make sure to backup your database and disable any funny plugins you may have first!

Thanks for the response esmi.

I’ve disabled plugins with phpMyAdmin and renamed all theme folders except twenty ten to no avail.

I get the same error if I visit wp-admin/upgrade.php. Do I need to download a fresh copy of that file?

@alchymyth:

You are a genius!

I’m such a doofus – I simply cut-and-paste some filler text into my test blog and the formatting was in the copy & paste.

Thank you ??

Thanks for your help so far EMG.

I have removed the .post class (it was never being used).

The problem seems to be in <?php the_content() ;?>

I’ve altered index.php and removed the .entry div. It now reads:

<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
<?php comments_popup_link('{0}', '{1}', '{%}', 'comment-number'); ?>
<p>Test</p>
<p><?php the_content(); ?></p>

In my stylesheet I have the following:

.post-long p{
	font-family: helvetica, arial, clean, sans-serif;
	font-weight: normal;
	line-height: 1.8em;
	font-size: 1.3em;
}

The word ‘Test’ is formatted correctly but the post content (i.e. what is being supplied by the_content) is not being formatted correctly. When I look at the source of my page (sorry – it’s a local copy) I get this HTML:

<div class="post-long" id="post-9">					

<h2><a href="https://localhost:80/2009/07/long-post/" title="Long Post">Long Post</a></h2>
<a href="https://localhost:80/2009/07/long-post/#respond" class="comment-number"  title="Comment on Long Post">{0}</a>
<p>Test</p>

It looks like the text from the_content is being styled but I don’t know by what!

There is no post class that’s being used – all the entries are post-long, post-video or post-short.

Doesn’t seem to make a difference.

Garry

Thanks,

I am relativeky new to CSS – how does the display:none thing work? It sounds like what I’m after.

Garry,
