Divs not overflowing, container not centering, don’t know what the hell is going

  • A thank you in advance to anyone with some time to help me out… Am new to wordpress, and average webpage builder guy.

    Right… trying to make wordpress go inside a div in my existing site template, so customising my theme.

    Everything seems to be great, except I can’t get the scrolling to work on the div so that wordpress stays inside it. I want it to work like this… https://www.theidiotinstitute.com/news.html (My current “blog” setup.)

    But instead it is working like this… https://www.theidiotinstitute.com/blog

    It is also not centering like normal. No idea why…

    I think it may be to do with the styles? But I can’t understand why.

    Any ideas please please please?

    Is this even possible?

  • The news.html page is probably not supposed to look like this:

    That’s what it looks like in Opera. I don’t have time to look into it right now but I’m sure someone else does. Just thought I’d let you know because you’re working from that.

    As a start… it seems you completely forgot to call the header.php in all of your .php files. When you look at your source code you’ll see that it starts with <body>, instead of <html>, <head> and all the other nice stuff that makes homepages (and css) work :).

    Thank you very much Joyce…
    I had no idea it wasn’t working properly in Opera.
    It works fine in FF and IE. Any idea why it wouldn’t in Opera?

    And thank you for pointing out that the header isn’t loading Sivar. Although I have no idea why. I’m really not too sure about the coding in WordPress and PHP. The header is there, it just doesn’t seem to be loading. Any ideas?

    The header has to be called in your templates such as index.php, home.php, and so on. Here’s an overview.
