    please take a look at this page

    texts are just start lying on each other, it’s a mess, the “read more” button should stop the full text content show all the way down in front page, but it just shows everything in every post, how should I fix this problem? many thanks!!

    your quick choice would be to change theme, else you have to check the php files of the theme and investigate on the things that you observed.

    i suspect that your theme files are somewhat corrupted.

    first fix:
    change here in style.css – add ‘overflow:hidden;’:

    #content .post {
		width: 259px; height: 420px;
		float: left;
		padding: 20px 15px 0 35px;
              overflow:hidden;
	}

    second: when writing a post, you need to put the ‘more’ tag into the text after a few paragraphs. to get this ‘continue reading’ button in the posts.

    or: look into the settings of the theme in admin, if you can change to show only excerpts on the front page.

    Hello alchymyth, Thank you so so so much for the help, it worked with “overflow:hidden”, but not sure about the “more” setting, I’ll try to find out but if possible, could you describe it in detail please? thank you for your time and help, much appreciated.
