Update: fixed. Carla in tech support noticed that there was a missing </b> tag in the subscribe typelist. As soon as I added it, the page went back to normal.Yay Carla!
What's really interesting about this, is that you can apparently apply text styles to the body text from within a typelist… I had no idea. There's no simple way to make your body text bold, for instance, without applying CSS or monkeying with the code in your template. If you actually wanted bold, this would be a simple way to make it happen. I think I may have to play with this and see what else can be accomplished by leaving html tags incompleted in a typelist!
I spent last night working on redoing some element of the blog's design. Mostly I just wanted to change the sidebar elements, and add FeedFlare to the footers of the posts.
Somewhere along the way, the body text of the blog became bold. I'm working on fixing that, but I haven't found the mistake yet. It's sort of interesting, because it's also affecting several template designs that are not advanced templates and there actually isn't a way to make body text bold in the non advanced templates if you wanted to. I don't get it.
Also, the archives are temporarily out of the sidebar. I managed to incorporate them into drop down menus on one of my other blogs and wanted to do the same here. But the code isn't cooperating today.
Stay tuned, I'm sure this will all be ironed out soon.
Do you have questions or comments?
