    Hi,

    I’ve adjusted my excerpt length because my blog uses longer excerpts before the “View More” but when I do post longer excerpts, all my paragraph breaks (and other formatting too, I believe, like italics) get wiped out. Any fix for this?

    My site is http://www.theprocrastiwriter.com, but I’ve regretfully shortened most of my excerpts, though older posts should still show what I’m talking about.

    Also, I’ve tried every piece of code suggested to get rid of all the padding around my header image, and nothing works. Any ideas?

    Thanks.

    @Shanan: Sorry I don’t understand your site issue. Can you explain it more for send me the exact page url of issue with example.

    For header image what you want to do it. If you want to remove the left padding then you can add the following CSS in “Appearance => Theme Options => Custom CSS” box.
    #header .logo-wrap { padding: 0; }

    And if you want to remove the margin top and bottom then you can add the following CSS.

    #header .logo-wrap { margin: 0 }
    #header #mainmenu { margin-top: 0 }

    Thanks for the header code! It worked perfectly.

    About the excerpt: What I’m trying to say is: I insert paragraph breaks between sentences as I’m writing my post, but when I hit “Publish” and visit my home page to view the result, the excerpt always appears as one big, unbroken block of text.

    How can I get the paragraph breaks I insert when I’m writing to show up in my excerpt on the home page? If you look at my home page, there are no paragraph breaks in any of my excerpts, but the way they were originally written, there should be some. Any advice?

    Thanks!

    @Shanan: Oh excerpt doesn’t take any formatting.
