Formatting Problems in Preview

  When drafting a post today, I checked what it looked like using the preview option. All of my formatting was voided in the preview page – all my paragraphing was just one huge chunk of text. Furthermore, the links to my images (which are hosted on Flickr) were just the text hyperlinks rather than the images. Clearly I could not publish with the preview indicating how awful the post would be.

  Although I have been blogging for two years now, this is my first experience of encountering this problem. Therefore, I am not sure what I should do to resolve it.

  I would appreciate any advice and guidance as to how to rectify it as it is preventing me from blogging.

  Thanks in advance

  PS I just checked the post I scheduled to publish this morning and, while some of the images have shown up, two of them are just the hyperlinks in text format.

  I don’t know why this worked but I copied and pasted the text and links from my blog draft into an old version of Word, copied and pasted that back into the blog editor and – bingo! – all my formatting issues disappeared. Bizarre.
