  Could anyone tell me why the right hand menu of my blog is now at the bottom? What should I do to fix it?

  Thanks in advance

  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 so you know how to do this correctly in the future. 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.”

  Starting with your latest post, open it in the editor, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it, and then click “Update Post.” Check your blog and see if it is back to normal.

  Thank you, and thanks for the link. I’m not sure where the paste as text button is. I think that’s the problem as I have been pasting from other places. I tried the small changes you suggested with no luck.

  Is the paste as text button the same thing you mention on row 2? If so, where is row 2?

  Thanks again!

  Click the last icon in Row 1 of the Visual editor – the kitchen sink icon and the second row of icons will appear. http://en.support.wordpress.com/visual-editor/#row-2
