  When I am working on my blog, ampersands in my post titles turn to text. When I upload and visit my site, it looks fine to me. I thought this was fine, but it seems that other WordPress Bloggers are seeing them, maybe when they’re logged in? Naything I can do about it besides give up my ampersands (&)?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  To use an ampersand in a blog title, wordpress should automatically insert the correct code (it has to be coded since the ampersand is also part of HTML coding), but what you can do is use the actual ampersand code instead of just the ampersand.
