  The sidebar is showing up at the bottom of my blog. I have narrowed it down to which post is causing this but I cannot figure out the error in the HTML. I have checked the support section but my post does not contain the tags more or div. I cannot figure out what is causing this problem with the layout.

  I fixed it! It was the superscript of my date that was causing the problem.

  Go to settings > reading and click where it says, “wordpress should correct invalid…” and then save and that should help to keep the HTML errors that cause the sidebar to take a dive in the future.

  It wasn’t the superscript, it was an extra closing div tag after the image code.
