Hi, i've read previous users with this issue and i cant seem to figure out what happened here.
I reverted my Index, sidebar and footer php files and still having the issues, i ran the w3c validator but cant quite make out what any of it means as far as fixing the issue.
the site is clearviewglobal.com.previewdns.com, click any article in the blog section
thanks in advanced

Hey,
you need to remove some code. I think in footer.php you need to remove:
```
<body class="yui-skin-sam">
```
and:
```
</body>
 </body>
```

Greatness!
the footer.php had one </body> at the bottom. (though this was an untouched original i had reverted to)
This alone has resolved the issue. thanks

i can post anything else you may need or try .
i can also give you access to wp site manager as it is in the works and not in production, i had planned to go live this morning but this issue has held me back, please let me know how we can work together in this as it is the only issue i have with the site/theme

Hey,
it seems a div is left unclosed, if you put
</div>
right after or right before


the sidebar will move to where you want it to be. I'm uncertain if this causes any other problems, if so - let us know.

This singe.php code causes the problem to occur in firefox and IE

<?php get_header(); ?>

 <div id="content" class="bg_sidebar">
           <div id="inner_content">

			$portfolio_image = get_post_meta($post->ID, "portfolio-image", true);
			?>

            <div class="entry">

           <span class="meta"><?php echo $punchline; ?></span>
           <h2 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

i need to find the fix for both to work

Hey!
I would say we try focusing on the errors that the wc3 validator gets first, this usually fixes all probelems in all browsers ;)

When I run it I got the following problems:

you have commented out the home entry in the header.php file. You need to start the comment before the list and close the comment directly afterwards. There is also a problem with a missing div and body tag at the bottom, you might want to fix this as well.

Once that is done lets check if the problem still occurs.

By the way: are you running the latest version of the theme? we have had similar issues with a very old version of the Twicet...

Posted 1 year ago #

Ok, i was getting a lot of errors becuase i was using previewdns.com, i made the site live which resolved 90% of the errors (except the coding errors you listed above)
So, what i did then...>
I've downloaded the twicet theme from ThemeForest and replaced it completely in my hosting account.
I disabled all Plugins
I resolved the missing </Div> issue
I ran the W3 Validator and it now passes the validation.
Im still having the same issue.

After i did this, i did re-enable the plugins (after testing without them) because the site cannot be live without the plugins since i will lose functionalilty.

So now that the site is live, i really have to get it fixed ASAP.
Any more ideas?

by the way, the site is now http://www.clearviewglobal.com since its live

Also, i did uncomment the "Home" link form the header, and that did not help. I then commented it back out after all my testing because i dont want the link there.

Hey! I really dont want to be a pain but the validator still throws various errors. The problem here is that a single unclosed element or wrong nested element can kill the whole site layout so this needs to be resolved before we look further into the issue. I am really sorry for that :/

Posted 1 year ago #
clearviewglobal

Not sure what page you validated that you saw errors. But the posts i am having issues with are passing the validation. The home page shows errors on it, they go away when i disable the plugins.

For example:
The front page has errors, i disabled the "collision testimonials" plugin and the errors were gone ----did not make a difference for the posts (it has to be something in your template for the posts

I had errors in "http://clearviewglobal.com/about-us/we-care/", i disabled the calendar plugin and the errors were gone....did not make a difference for the posts that show the sidebar at the bottom in IE

get where im going with this?
I told you before, all pages check out when i disable the plugins, and the posts are still having issues.
If you need access to my site for you to do your own testing please let me know. i cannot continue having a conversation with you here where i write to you, then you respond 15 hours later, then i reply to you and have to wait another 10-15 hours....This is my business' site and i need it to work, can we please establish a better means of communications or get you guys a little more responsive or involved

Glad I could help :)

I am having similar issues with the latest Twicet downloaded from ThemeForest. The odd thing is, when I am logged out, the sidebar is fine on both the blog page (that lists multiple post), and on the single post view. When I'm logged in however, the sidebar is fine on the blog page but it goes to the bottom of the post when in single post view.

I've tried the final fix posted by clearviewglobal, but it only messes up the page even more (the footer gets pulled upwards into the whitespace).

Any ideas?
