# ‘Write Post’ formatting error

 * I upgraded to 1.5.1. There is a formatting issue on my ‘Write Post’ page. [[Screenshot 1](http://img79.echo.cx/my.php?image=writeposterror1vj.png)
   @ imageshack]
    Essentially, the allow comments, pings, and eval content check
   boxes have disappeared as you can see. What you don’t see is that the eval_content
   checkbox (I’m using runphp plugin) appears at the very bottom of the page, to
   the very left. The comments & pings boxes are gone. [[Screenshot 2](http://img79.echo.cx/my.php?image=writeposterror20ga.png)
   @ imageshack] Now I know this isn’t a plugin issue – I deactivated all of them
   and still got the same formatting problem. Is this a 1.5.1 error? Could it be
   due to a long list of categories (even though they are within a frame)? I do 
   not get a similar error on Write Post page.
 * Additionally, when I add a post, it takes ages for the next page (that says it’s
   been posted) to show up, even though I can see my updated blog immediately. Again,
   this extended delay doesn’t occur for posting pages, editing themes, plugins,
   etc., so I’m guessing it isn’t a bandwidth/connection issue. Could the two problems
   be related?

 * Update:
    Fixed the problem, (though it doesn’t address page load delay). I realised
   I didn’t have ‘Advanced Controls’ checked under ‘Options > Writing’.  Case closed(
   sort of), I presume.
