   Hello! I host http://www.disneyspectrum.com and I recently noticed that many elements pertaining to the discussion portion of my posts are haywire. If you click the link above and view one of the posts, you'll see it. I recently edited the theme CSS to get rid of the gray sharing box below the post so I am assuming I messed something up on that CSS page, though it started doing this a few weeks later.

   I tried disabling all plugins and nothing changes. Any help you can provide would be great. It bugs me so much! [Moderator note: help is provided only here - please don't offer to give access to your site to anyone on a public forum] Thank you!

   Those problems are likely due to mark-up errors -- see this:

   http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fdisneyspectrum.com%2F477&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=0

   Unclosed, stray or other tag errors cause CSS to not work right.

   How should I go about fixing these errors? Is there a service or plugin that will autocorrect these for me?

   Nope, you have to use the validator results to find them in either your content or php files (or sometimes they are due to a plugin). If that's beyond you, you could consider hiring someone:

   Generally, it's not that hard - likely the errors are in the content - read the page I linked to above.
