How to make post look like how it's customize
-
I decided to put in a post section. I created a post and customize it. The following is how it looks when I customize it: http://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/2014/11/23/first-post-2/?preview=true&preview_id=7335&preview_nonce=f11d30765b
However, when I see it on my website, it looks like the following:
http://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/posts-2/Is there a way to make the post to look like I designed it?
My URL is http://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/
My theme is Triton Lite
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi raincoaster:
I should be published. The post is in the Post tab in the navigation. When I created the post, I did press the Publish button.

-
Yes, but the version that’s been customized doesn’t come through. So take a screenshot of that and upload it.
-
Please answer raincoaster’s question above. Do you have a custom design upgrade on that blog? Yes or no?
-
Yes, I have a custom design upgrade.
As far as uploading the image, I never uploaded an image in a forum before and I don’t see a place to do that. I gave a link of how it looks customize. Does the link work?
-
Thank you so much for the upgarde confirmation. Neither raincoaster or I provide CSS editing help. A few other Volunteers do and Staff support it too. Please be patient while waiting for them to help you.

The “Posts” page in Triton Lite shows only an excerpt of your post and then the Continue Reading link, and on excerpts, all HTML is stripped out, so the style attributes you included in your post are not there on the public displayed page. If you click on the Continue Reading Link, then you will see the style attributes applied. The excerpt feature is not something that can be disabled on Triton Lite.
I would suggest looking for a different theme that does not use excerpts on the blog/posts page.
-
As an alternate, you could open that post in the editor, switch to the Text tab, copy out all the text and paste it into the “Excerpt” module below the text area, update the post and then take a look. In some themes, the custom Excerpt module will hold and display the HTML when you go to the posts page. It might be worth trying.

Some of the confusion may be that you’ve linked to one blog post, and one static page. Posts and pages are different in WordPress.
Your post looks like this:
https://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/2014/11/23/first-post-2/
However, when I see it on my website, it looks like the following:
http://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/posts-2/This link is actually a static page, not the blog post you mentioned above:
http://ebonymcfarland.wordpress.com/posts-2/
If you’d like to customize your static pages, you could try styling the .page class, which applies to all pages. For example:
.page { font-size: XXX; font-family: XXX; }Let me know if this helps.

Hi sacredpath and kathrynwp:
I just decided to go with another theme. I will figure out the posting part there. Thank you both for your suggestions.

No problem. Good luck with your new theme, and feel free to start a new thread if you need any help with it.
