My entries keep showing up in my sidebars

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m using the Sadish theme and for some reason one of my entries keeps showing up where my side bar should be. And my side bar is all the way at the bottom on the left side. Does anyone know why this is happening?

    My blog is bayareastreetstyle.wordpress.com. Look at it and let me know if you can help me out! Take care!

    The photos in your posts are scaled properly for your theme (499px horizontal) but the padding between the photo and the caption box are pushing the total size over 500px and the result, I think, is breaking the theme and pushing your sidebar to the bottom. This could also explain the posts being pushed into the sidebar space.

    @bayarea, I think there is either some missing tags or something causing this. Since your second page of posts (clicking “older posts link at bottom) is OK, it is a post on the main page.

    Go to settings > writing and select “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” click “save changes.” The open each post on the main page one by one, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it, and then click the “update post” button. In most cases this will fix the issue for you, and the change at settings > writing will help keep it from happening again.

    You should do what tsp says, but you only need to do it in the “Meet Asha” post; that’s where the problem is (two orphan closing “div” tags).

    On another issue: categories and tags function in exactly the same way – don’t use the same words or phrases as both categories and tags.

    The reason I was suggesting all the posts on the main page is that there are other errors that should be fixed as well and the above process typically takes care of the other errors as well.

    Ah ok – I was talking about the particular problem only.
