In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutI tested it,and it seems if you drop that padding from postentry p, all seems ok. Am I missing something?

In reply to: Jerome’s keyword breaks at 2.0.6Could this be a permalinks issue? A lot of times, just resubmitting your permalinks structure fixes such issues.

In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutDuh! (my emphasis, not for you) Just add a margin to the image. The text will space out from that. Thus you can eliminate the .postentrycopy all together.
But the issues of dynamic content requires more thought than that. That’s why CSS is brilliant. Extra classes, such as .left and .right set to images can allow you to really define where the space is depending on it’s location.
But at that point, you are going outside the realm of WP.

In reply to: Check Out My Site – Feedback Please!!!!A, personally I’m not a fan of sites that align left of the browser. I prefer some margin, especially on wide designs. If nothing else, use a wrap with a width, so the header and footer do not extend past the 960px the rest of the design uses.
B, the “grungy” effect on the header, post date, and footer seems a bit subtle, which is kinda counter to the intended effect (I *think*)
That said, it’s a very sharp look and you should be proud. (And I have no merit to make judgments, really, just MHO)
I thought I saw some Squible influence 🙂

In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutFrom a brief glance at your CSS, you could simply eliminate your .postentrycopy and use .postentry p . That way, you do not have to manually create the div, nor worry about closing/reopening.

In reply to: Jerome’s keyword breaks at 2.0.6Can you clarify. “2.0beta3” isn’t 2.0.6.

In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutThe more tag is not respecting the closing div. You will need to close the .postentrycopy, then add it again after the more tag, and close it again.
My suggestion would be to add some CSS to to .postentry p instead of creating postentrycopy.
Seems it would do the same thing.

In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutAs I mentioned, for one reason or another, you are not getting a closing

In reply to: Automated PostingThinking out loud, why not write the script to dump to an email, and then use the built in feature to post from that?
There’s at least one plugin for enhanced post-to-email features, seems it might require less “hacking”.
Again, just a thought.

In reply to: ‘more’ tag changing layoutAnother thing to keep in mind is *where* you are adding the the
<!--more-->tag. It’s quite possible that if it’s inside a<p>, that it’s leaving an open block level element, thus breaking the design.Forum: Your WordPress
