I’ve been having this problem where when I click on my individual posts they show up with more than half the text cut off on the right side. It is very sporadic and doesn’t happen all the time. Has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it? Thanks!

Can we have a link to your wordpress.COM blog? The site in your user name is not hosted here.

His blog is here: http://kovalproductions.wordpress.com/

I checked earlier, and did a search for others with this problem, but couldn’t find anything (outside of CSS editing).

yes, sorry about that. Didn’t realize the link took you to my website.

Here’s the link to my blog: http://kovalproductions.wordpress.com/

To see the problem you have to click on the individual posts.

Thanks!

I did a search as well but couldn’t find anyone else with this problem. Do you think I might have messed something up with the CSS editing? If anyone could take a look at it and let me know it’d be greatly appreciated!

If no one gets to this, I’ll try to take a look at the CSS coding when I get back.

I looks like you have the entry column as wide as the page. I see this:
```
#page {
text-align:left;
width:945px;
background-color:white;
margin:20px auto;
padding:0;
}
```
and this
```
.widecolumn {
line-height:1.6em;
width:945px;
overflow:hidden;
margin:5px 0 0 150px;
padding:10px 0 20px;
}
```
Note that the width is the same for each, which causes the text to actually be under the sidebar.

Try reducing the width of the widecolumn.

Wait – I grabbed the wrong info! The entry is 10000 pixels wide! (I can’t find the exact spot in the CSS where it is grabbing that width. The only thing I see with that number is the hr. ) So try adding this to your CSS:
```
div.entry {
width:735px;
}
```
