Upgraded To 2.2 Now My Blog Looks Horrible

you’re going to need to be a little more specific than that if you want help. you look at your blog a lot more than us, so we have no idea what you think changed.

Sorry…I was playing around with the number of posts that display on the front page so you may have not seen a problem. In any case, if you visit the site now with FF I think you will see what I am talking about. I think it narrowed it down to a wp 2.2 + embedded flash issue. Any suggestions?

I looked real quick since you mentioned flash trouble in that other post. One thing i noticed right off the bat is that your embeds are now changed to ibeds..

Did you notice that?

And you do know that using embed isn’t necessary anyway? Consequently, instead of trying to figure out why its done that, you could go back and edit out all of those usages of embed

if you don’t want to do that, theres a ton of posts already on here talking about that.

It appears to be caused by having used the wysiwyg editor to have added the objects — Im just guessing, since I dont use it, never have never will ??

Thanks a lot. The strange thing is that it use to work before the upgrade to 2.2. I’m not sure what 2.2 did but now all of my videos don’t work. It really is a pain for me to have to go in and change every post I have with video attached…

Everything appears to be working now. I went ahead and “fixed” all of my posts that have videos in them. I’m not sure how this could have gotten screwed up in the upgrade however, everything appears to be working now….

Hi,

I just upgraded to WP 2.2 and have the same problem with videos breaking my layout since the upgrade. I’ve removed the posts with videos for now, but what happens is the video appears in the sidebar column instead of the post column and the post text runs across the whole screen. This happens no matter what theme I use.

I’ve tried removing the embed tags and see that the video shows up fine without them, but the layout is still messed up. Any ideas?

My blog is here: https://evamoon.net/blog

I know it won’t be of much help without any video posts, but I didn’t want to leave it broken. I’ll put one back for a short time if you need to see it to help.

Thanks!

Update: When I post the code to embed a video and preview it looks good. But when I save it and then go back to it it’s broken.

When I look at the code after saving and going back, the code’s been changed from

<object width=’448′ height=’336′><param name=’movie’ value=’https://www.glumbert.com/embed/highpower’></param><param name=’wmode’ value=’transparent’></param></object>

To:

<object height=”336″ width=”448″></object>

<param name=”movie” value=”https://www.glumbert.com/embed/highpower”></param&gt;
<param name=”wmode” value=”transparent”></param>

The params get moved outside the object tags. No matter how often I move them back, when I save it goes back to this.

Please help!

Update 2: As weird as it is that the editor is moving tags around, that doesn’t seem to be what’s causing the problem. When I turn off wysiwyg and the code is NOT rewritten, the page STILL breaks.

This all used to work in the previous version of WP.

Ideas?
