Any problems like this are always a royal pain in the sensitive areas, but there is not a lot that can be done from this end without actually having the theme in front of us to work with. It tends to be trial and error all the way down the line. * I’d start with your relevant CSS relating to where the graphic is being over- ridden by the text and begin by adjusting padding, margin and possible line height settings. * And for what it is worth, seeing the site online gave us a much better overview of the problem. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [How to Exerpt Blog Posts in PHP?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-exerpt-blog-posts-in-php/) * [shadow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shadow/) * (@shadow) * [18 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-exerpt-blog-posts-in-php/#post-664595) * Well, if you put that code in the index.php and page.php files in your theme to replace ``, it will be automatic. * Or do you mean you want it to automatically happen without changing anything?
