    Hi,

    When I edit the appearance of a post it doesnt show on the main page. Im trying to do simple things like bold font, different size font, spaces between paragraphs...

    My website is vanillaplay.com

    When you click through to a post you can see the edits or else I`ve had to link to a static page which is not ideal.

    Ive tried editing in html mode and Ive tried contacting the author of the theme but no luck.

    Regards

    I'm pretty sure that you home page uses excerpts to display the content, while your single.php template using the full content, because of that all formatting is stripped. There's no easy solution, unless you're prepared to do some custom php.

    Here's one tutorial I found. http://bacsoftwareconsulting.com/blog/index.php/wordpress-cat/how-to-preserve-html-tags-in-wordpress-excerpt-without-a-plugin/

    Hi,

    I followed the tutorial and while it still doesnt seem to allow editing of font size and colour its much better than before. I`ll keep playing around with it.

    Thanks, much appreciated.
