Hello! I have updated to the most recent version of EasyBlog, but for some reason the side modules (left and right) are loading under the body of the page only on the main blog page. They load fine on the other pages on the site. Not really sure how this would happen. Please advise, and thank you!
Hey Trevor,

When you add a "readmore", what actually happens is the WYSIWYG editor will inject it at where your cursor is currently located at. Upon saving, EasyBlog will then, split the text into "introtext" (which is anything before the readmore) and "fulltext" (which is anything after the readmore). When the content is displayed, only "introtext" is used which also includes the partial div tag that eventually causes the layout to mess up.

Hey Trevor,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Is it possible for you to provide us with the back end and FTP access to your site to check on this issue?

Mark,

I had a Read More added to one of the posts and took it out, then problem resolved itself. It might have been because the Read More is in a horizontal rule and somehow applied to the whole page. It didn't do that before the update to EB5.

Hey Trevor,

Hm, the read more shouldn't be within another block. If you add the read more before the horizontal rule block. Does that work?

Hello Mark,

It is not in another block. When the "Read More" button is selected in the backend, within the HTML it displays in a horizonatal rule, or <hr> tag.

"<hr id="system-readmore" />"

I added it again, and the side modules jumped to the bottom of the page under the body.

Hey Trevor,

Hm, to be honest I really have no idea how to reproduce this. If you need me to check on this, please provide us with both the back end and FTP access

Hey Mark,

Simply select "Read More" to add the button to the blog and save it. It will automatically change where the modules load on the main page where the blog is listed.

Hey Trevor,

Ah, found the problem and it has something to do with the HTML tags being generated by the editor (or was the div added manually?) See my screen shot here, http://screencast.com/t/ingShaDGdWB4

Hey Mark,

The div was added by me so I could apply CSS without having to apply it to every instance. That is pretty strange though. Why would a <hr> tag have an effect on a div like that?

Hey Mark,

Thank you for the explanation! That actually make sense. So, it also has to deal with the RSS feed then?

Hm, not really sure if I understand you here Trevor. This actually has nothing to do with the RSS feed

Hey Mark,

Okay, well I have another forum post about what information would be pulled from the RSS Feed by Mail Chimp for an email. I figured the Intro Text would have something to do with this.
