Once again, you solved a problem I didn’t know I had. I mean I had a problem but I didn’t know what was behind it – or something like that.

Hi Tracy,

It doesn’t over-ride the CSS – that sits in your theme files. It disables the HTML filters that WordPress uses.

If you want total control of the layout of your articles you can write them in the HTML view. In this case open the article with the opening raw-html tag and close it with the close tag.

This will give you control over spacing and positioning of objects (centre align, left align, etc) and also enable you to insert some inline CSS (which will over ride the theme stylesheets).

I’m not sure what spacer code you’re referring to, but this plugin should enable you to get the spacing you want without the need for any special spacing codes.

Hope that helps,

Cheers,

Martin.

Nice insight – I’ve spent so much time focussing on finding a wp theme that worked for me. Now I’ve got that sorted, I’ll be more focused on the look of my articles. I like this alot.

So does this mean it overrides the css completely?

I’ve had some frustrations with “spacing” in articles and because you cant use the traditional html code I found there was a spacer code that I needed to use.
