In reply to: Decrease space between postNote: in your source code the backslashes aren’t in the line break. For some reason this forum is adding them. So look for the br tags I posted above without the backslahes and remove them.

In reply to: Decrease space between postThe reason there’s a large space between each post is because of this:
<br /> <br />which is probably located in the index.php of your theme. Remove that and the space will go away.

In reply to: Help! All of my comments disappeared and can’t add new ones!Have you checked your datebase to make sure the comments are still there? If they are, did you try a different theme to see if that fixes the problem? If you have and that didn’t change anything, try repairing your datebase:

Make sure you back up the database first though 🙂

Which could for some reason have gorked the comments since it’s all about comments. Try deactivating it, clear the cache and cookies in your browser, and then reload your site and see if the comments are working,

In reply to: Help! All of my comments disappeared and can’t add new ones!I also upgraded my plugins, but I doubt that would have anything to do with it
Actually that could have EVERYTHING to do with it. Plugins can sometimes cause strange things to happen to stuff that seems unrelated. What plugins did you upgrade?

In reply to: Having A Different Style for the FIrst paragraphWhat I’d do is create a class for the first paragraph. For instance, in your stylesheet do something like:
.firstparagraph {
color:red;
font-family:arial;
font-size:15px;
}Then when you write a post you’d just wrap the first paragraph in a div like so…
<div class=”firstparagraph”>blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah. blah blah blah blah blah. blah blah blah.</div>

In reply to: Locally installed WordPressIncoming links show sites that are linked to your websites URL. Your local install address is (presumably) http://localhost/wordpress/ (just like the thousands of other people who’ve installed locally). Since that address is commonly referred to across the internet it appears in your incoming links section. It doesn’t mean anyone has actually linked to posts you’ve written on your locally installed blog. That would be impossible since no one but you can see it. Did you even check the “incoming links”? I don’t think so because if you had, you’d have seen that they’re associated either with gibberish or articles/questions/etc about installing locally.

In reply to: 2.7 Editor sucks!For the life of me I can’t figure out why people have so much trouble. I’m using 2.7. I insert HTML. I never have a problem. If WP was the issue I’d think EVERYONE would have this problem.
I really wonder why this comment is formatted well
Why? Going by what you say, WordPress messes up formatting. This message forum isn’t run on WordPress so what does the format of forum posts have to do with anything?

In reply to: Formatting…. posting problem…You cannot copy and paste from word.

In reply to: Xampp Blog URL@arvind Bhargava
You can’t just install Xampp, install WordPress, and expect anyone on the internet to be able to see it. As figaro said, you have a lot more work to do if that’s what you’re trying to achieve. The address for YOU to view WP locally on your machine however is exactly what travel junkie told you… http://localhost/the-name-of-the-folde-rcontaining-wordpress
