Blog not displaying properly
-
Hello,
All posts are showing underneath all the links in the right hand column. Surely the post should begin at the top of the page?

This is a common problem usually caused by importing content or by copying and pasting content containing invalid HTML. If you have been copying and pasting text from elsewhere without using either icon 5 or icon 6 in Row 2 of the visual editor, please see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#pasting-text
Go to Settings > Writing and select “ ___ WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then scroll down and click “Save Changes.”
Posts > All Posts, change all your latest posts to Draft, click Update, change them back to Published, click Update again. (You can edit all of them at once: tick the square in front of their titles then select Edit from the Bulk Actions dropdown and click Apply.)

P.S. I assume the problem is with importing from blogger but I don’t know how to fix it.

I see you have the imbalance 2 theme now. Imbalance 2 offers two layout options, fluid and fixed.
Fluid means the width changes according to screen resolution (or the width of browser) your visitors use.
Fixed means the width does not change according to screen resolution (or the width of browser) your visitors use.
http://theme.wordpress.com/themes/imbalance2/Column one is the blog title and tagline; you edit them in Settings > General.
Columns two and three are for two menus; you create and load them in Appearance > Menus – instructions here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/
Column four is for widgets; you add them in Appearance > Widgets.You need to set a featured image in each post in order to see the thumbnail in imbalance 2. Click on the module that has ‘featured image’ in it (if you don’t see the module, look at the top of the editor window for ‘screen options’ and check it’) then the image editor will appear. Browse to the image you want to use, via that, in the usual way, and then when you’ve found it, click the ‘featured image’ and when it appears in the module (outside the edit box) just close the image editor, and save your post as usual. An image that works best with featured images at least 210 wide.

This is great stuff, but I don’t see how to solve the alignment issue I am experiencing?

I’m reading threads in an attempt to find a solution to your issue. Look at this site wearing the same theme http://1tess.wordpress.com/ It seems the widget positioning on your blog may be creating that gap above your posts.

I’m sorry but I have to go as the paint in one room is dry and I must paint the next one so it dries before nightfall. I have flagged this thread for Staff attention.

At Appearance -> Widgets, you have all of your widgets listed in the Header Area, which is above the posts.
This particular theme doesn’t have a sidebar area, so your only choices are above the posts in the Header area, or below your posts in the Footer area.

“Surely the post should begin at the top of the page?”
No. The top section in Imbalance has four columns: header image, menu, menu, widget area. Posts start below the top section, and it’s up to you to keep the top widget area short. Put most of your widgets in the footer areas. -

Aha! It was the widget placement issue just like I thought. Thanks to macmanx and juspi for helping. I’m back to painting.
