What browser?
In FF the text doesn’t run into the right column… it’s just ugly: even at high resolution there is a horizontal scrollbar.
(and saying it’s the Classic – it is a misleading statement: the Classic is a flexible layout, while you have a fixed width)
I’m using Firefox. Did you try shrinking your window size down and then going into comments and typing? That’s where the problem occurs. It also occurs when I am posting a new entry with the Firefox window shrunk.
As to the Classic Theme, I didn’t make any changes to the theme after downloading it from WordPress. The Theme says it’s WordPress Classic 1.5.
that’s your issue.
when you downloaded wp 2.0.2 – it had the classic theme built in… there was no need to put in the old one.
go to wherever you downloaded wp 2.0.2 on your computer, locate the theme, and then DELETE the theme you uploaded and replace it with the one in the new 2.0.2 folder.
Thanks ladydelaluna.
The issue with comments appears to be fixed in both FF and Explorer.
However, it remains when I write a new post. The Title section shrinks appropriately when I change my window size, but the Post section will only shrink to a certain point and then the sidebar covers it, so that you can’t see what you’re typing.
So, this probably has nothing to do with the theme, but rather a Dashboard / management tool issue?
Also – FYI regarding re-installing the Classic Theme – the instructions here: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Upgrading_WordPress#Detailed_Instructions could probably be updated to mention that if you’re using the Classic Theme there is no need to re-upload it.
yes, that has to do with the dashboard itself, and not your theme…
did you perhaps install a dashboard modifying plugin or something?
I have not modified the Dashboard with any plugins. The only plugin I’ve activated is “Hello Dolly” which doesn’t affect this issue whether on or off.
