Solved it, added this to the first CSS line:
float:left!important

The problem is it does’t render correctly in WP though if you put it inside the theme.

For example, I have it working here: https://lucaswynne.com/ in the class .count – that class creates a circle around the number of comments display in the upper right hand corner of each excerpt. But instead it just disappears in IE.

That code isn’t doing much to help. If I use this though:

<?php query_posts('posts_per_page=');
if ( have_posts() ) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

I get posts, but it’s now repeating the posts instead of showing the previous posts like it should be.

Ok, I have it showing as many as I want now – but still the error on the second page.

I think that may be the solution. But for some reason it only wants to show one post now, even though I have 5 in the category and have assigned the category. Hmm. Any ideas?

I’m using 3.0.3.

Anybody?

You, good sir, are a miracle worker. If there was a like button I would click it vigorously.

Min-height makes it bigger when there’s no image too though. Anybody!? Help! HELLLLLP! (Slightly dramatic, but expresses my dismay)

Thanks, it worked!

Use the same function you would use to get the name of an author for a post is what I’d do.

Post example page: https://lucaswynne.com/?p=62

When I take that image out the paragraph is 4 less pixels down the page. I can’t figure it out.

This is what I have…

function catch_that_image() {
  global $post, $posts;
  $first_img = '';
  ob_start();
  ob_end_clean();
  $output = preg_match_all('/<img.+src=[\'"]([^\'"]+)[\'"].*>/i', $post->post_content, $matches);
  $first_img = $matches [1] [0];
  if(empty($first_img)){ //Defines a default image
    $first_img = ' ';
  }
  return $first_img;
}

And in the index it does not work with the original code and does not work with the code provided. :-S

That is one issue. Just another way of attacking it.

Or somebody could help me fix my other issues.

When I display block everything aligns just fine. But then when I put a right or left aligned image at the top of the post the margin on the paragraph moves down an additional 4 pixels. I’m picky on pixel-perfect. Of course, this only happens when the image is at the top of the post The following circumstances produce this problem:

Paragraph CSS:
#single_wrap p { color:#525252; font-size:14px; line-height:30px; margin:0px 0 12px 0!important; display:block }

Images CSS;

#single_wrap img { border:0px; background:#E6E6E6; max-width:660px }
#single_wrap p img { }

/* Images */
.aligncenter { margin:20px auto -8px auto!important }
.alignleft { display:inline; float:left; margin:10px 15px 7px 0 }
.alignright { display:block; float:right; margin:10px 0px 7px 15px }

This is the code I’m using
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>"><img src="<?php echo catch_that_image() ?>" class="index" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>, <?php comments_number('No comments','One comment','% comments'); ?>" /></a>

That last code still doesn’t do what I’d like it to.
