In reply to: Forward or Move Domain to “WordPress” Domain?Try exporting your WP posts and pages from Domain B (dashboard > manage > export), then importing them to Domain A (dashboard > manage > import).
You’ll have to upload jpgs, themes, plugins etc separately.

In reply to: Wysiwig editor has vanishedPanic over. Clearing the caches in IE and FF did the trick.
Forum: Everything else WordPress
In reply to: Wysiwig editor has vanishedVery odd … the problem occurs in Firefox 3 and IE 7, but not in the IE frontend browser GreenBrowser 4.3.1 – an old version which I now have no intention of upgrading!
There is another issue: when the Visual tab is highlighted, content is visible as html; if I click on the HTML tab, the post or page content disappears completely in the editor, but not on the published site. Clicking on the Visual tab again does not restore the content.
Help would be appreciated.

In reply to: My Insert/edit image box is missing some tabsI’d like to bump this query.
I’ve a wordpress.com-hosted blog whose ‘Insert/edit image’ dialogue has the options that Recharger mentions.
These are absent from an independent installation of WP2.0.3.
Is there a plugin that would cover this?

In reply to: WordPress Editor — *** SCREAM ***Try this …
In Presentation > Theme Editor > style.css, paste this:
.big-gap {
margin-top:100px
}In your post, in HTML view, go to the paragraph above which you want extra space to appear.
After <p , paste *class=”big-gap”* (remove asterisks).
That should give you white space. Change the 100 to however many pixels you want.

In reply to: Div instead of paragraphNo probs.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Div instead of paragraphYou may not believe this: turns out that when using Firefox, IE6, or IE6 with the Maxthon front end, a ‘p’ markup is given at the start of paragraphs, whether typed or pasted.
However, paragraphs are given a ‘div’ in IE6 with the Avant Browser front end, which is what I’ve been using.
So it looks as if the problem is with Avant Browser. Don’t know how, but at least I have a way forward.
(Also interesting that *no* markup seems to appear at the start of paragraphs when using Opera! This might help Brandon206.)
Thanks to Yosemite and Moshu for your help.

In reply to: Div instead of paragraphExactly. Perfect description of the problem I’m trying to nail.
I reiterate that this is a fresh installation; the only way I’ve touched it is to paste the body of one post and type a second.
(The ‘Hello World’ entry comes with the installation.)
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Div instead of paragraphAbsolutely. Have tried again on a clean install (of WordPress 2.0.3 using Fantastico, which has worked fine on other domains).
Typing direct or pasting both end up with div instead of p as you describe.
Here’s how it manifests:

In reply to: Div instead of paragraphRather than tweak customisations I’ve tried a fresh WP installation using the WordPress Default 1.5 theme. Same thing happens … typing text into the wysiwyg ‘Write Post’ box yields a div markup instead of p.
Am now wondering if this is a glitch in WP 2.0.3?
Or is there somewhere in a template where I can specify which tag I want?

In reply to: Div instead of paragraphSidebar widgets is the only active plugin. Tried disabling it, but still the div tag appears insteas of p.
Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Div instead of paragraphOops … just tried pasting text which had been stripped of formatting and it’s happened again. So both scenarios apply.
