    Hi Ollyw,

    In my own attempts to get cron working, I ran across an article that suggested,

    wget -q -O – http://yourdomain.com/blog/wp-cron.php?doing_wp_cron >/dev/null 2>&1

    Naturally, you need to change this to the path to your own wp-cron.php file.

    And suggested adding,
    define(‘DISABLE_WP_CRON’, true);
    to the wp-config.php to disable the internal cron job.

    Hope this helps.

    Wonderful, guys. I was just coming back to say that I found the problem, and I see you did, too.

    I found a year-old post that suggested “clear: both;” was the problem by eliminating floats.

    WPyogi and srikat, both of you have been of immense help. Thanks!

    I might add that changing themes didn’t fix the problem, either. I tried WordPress’s Twenty Eleven and still had the same problem.

    What still has me puzzled is that the wrap shows in the editor, but disappears in the actual web page view.

    I also deleted the first image and made sure that my insertion cursor was at the start of the text line for the first subhed. Same problem.

    The only significant differences that I know of are the WordPress version (3.5.1) which I’ve never used until this installation, and the fact that each of the images use a link URL to an external site. I can’t see how such a URL link would affect text wrapping, so I’m left wondering if WordPress 3.5.1 is the culprit. I say that cautiously, because I know there may be other factors involved that I haven’t looked at yet.

    WPyogi, thanks again for your fast response, but I’m afraid that I always insert before the text. I learned that trick early on in my own HTML hand-coding of my dozen websites.

    I did double-check and yes, the image code is just in front of the text it should be wrapping with.

    Any other thoughts? I appreciate your help.

    Hi WPyogi,

    Thanks for the fast reply, but that didn’t fix it.

    If I understand inline and block correctly, “inline” is the default and one theme I regularly work with on another site doesn’t explicitly define the “display” parameter, so would default to “inline,” and it works just fine.

    “Block,” if I understand it correctly, makes the item take up an entire line as if it owned it, which is what appears to be happening with “inline.”

    It seems the problem is somewhere else and I have not yet found the source.

    How can I get the text to wrap around the picture, instead of the picture hogging an entire block?

    Hello,

    It’s always good to have multiple methods for combatting spam. If you have Administrator privileges on your WordPress, go to Options / Discussion. At the bottom of the “Discussion Options” page, you will see a “Comment Blacklist” text box. Here you can add IP’s that send spam your way. One IP per line. Click “Update Options” button and you’re good to go.

    Best regards,
