Bleeding categories/tags

    I am currently using the Headlines theme from Woo Themes. In the summary view of many of my posts the categories and tags bleed into the next post. I don’t know how to make that stop other than reduce the number of categories or tags and I really don’t want to do that.

    I thought about simply removing the summary and showing the full posts, but in the Headline theme, I can’t find where to make the change.

    Can someone help me fix this problem? Here is a link: http://www.bwcoa.com/wordpress/category/rescue/

    I posted over on the Woo Theme support forum but they suggested I try over here.

    I’ve checked out that page in Firefox 3.5 and IE8 and I can’t see any bleeding between tags and categories.

    Great, it’s an IE7 problem. I wonder how many people haven’t upgraded (like me). It looks horrible. Is there someone who can help me fix it?

    First of all, did you purchase your Headlines theme from Woothemes or did you get it elsewhere? Because if you purchased your theme a Woothemes, you have the right to ask for theme support in their forums – I would be surprised and aghast if they treat customers that way.

    Secondly, your theme is double-nested. i.e.
    yoursite.com/wp-content/themes/Headlines/Headlines/plus-theme-files-and folders
    when it should be
    yoursite.com/wp-content/themes/Headlines/plus-theme-files-and-folders
    – So please correct that by deleting current theme folder and correctly upload the folder per 2nd URL shown above.

    Third, to answer your question – per consult
    find all occurrences of <div class="fr"> and replace with <div class="fl"> in the following files in your Headline theme folder:
    a) archive.php; b) index.php; c) search.php; and d) single.php
    – this will make the flow of tags aligned left, and take away the overlap. You could add more styling for .fl class if you want.
    OR
    open up your theme’s style.css and find selector .fr and change declaration to float and clear left
    .fr { float: left; clear: left; }
    Caveat to this is not quite clear if .fr is used in other parts of the site but cursory check shows it is only used for the tags.
