CMS formating problems

Elements CMS
1

Now I’m going crazy :slight_smile:

I thought I would start the CMS from scratch and deleted my entire blog in Elements and rebuilt everything from the ground up following the video “How to Set Up Elements CMS: Part 1”

Everything works fine in Elements and the preview, but after I published all the files in Elements, the blog posts have gotten a strange formatting. I have cleared cookies in the browser and tried multiple browsers, but the same error in all of them. Now I need tips on what might be wrong. Any suggestions?

Looks like it can’t find the required css or javascript, have you added any extra code or changed the base URL or similar?

3

I have not added any extra code or changed anything that I know of.
What do you mean by “changed the base URL”?

4

I had of course forgotten this: <base href="/blogg/"> :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

New problem. Theme Style for Typography is not correct.

You base href code is in the wrong place. Remove it from “Headers” and place it at “Head End”. That should fix it.

@dan

Could you please clarify once again exactly where the <base href="/mypath/"> tag should be placed?

You are now saying it belongs in “Head End”, but yesterday @differentdan gave me a different answer and said “Head Start.”

Could you please clarify once and for all where exactly this tag should be placed when needed? Thanks.

Sorry, ideally it should probably be Head Start.

Did you find any solution to my problem?

Yes, I replied above :backhand_index_pointing_right: CMS formating problems - #5 by dan

I have done that. Didn’t help.

When I tested it here in you project it fixed the issue, perhaps try again.

Please send me your latest project and I will take a look for you.

It looks like you’re using a Markdown table in your frontmatter.

Markdown tables are not supported.

I know this, but this is not exactly the problem. Formatting of headings and texts is not displayed correctly in any of the blog posts.

17

As I said above. You still have the base tag in the wrong place. I’ve recorded a video to show you how to fix this in your project.

Unbelievable that I forgot to delete the code in <HEAD> :sob:
Anyway. Many thanks for the help :folded_hands:

Hi @dan
I have updated and uploaded all files again to the web server, but there is still something wrong with the site. Looks fine in preview, but not on the web server.

See the link below.

Hi @mrTablet

Can you upload your new project file to Elements Cloud and send the link over to me please. You can DM me here on the forum with the link.

@mrTablet

put the tag in “head start” NOT “head end”

Delete the tag from “Head End” and copy it into “Head Start.”
At the moment, according to the source code, it is still placed in “Head End.”

Dan probably mixed up “end” and “start” again in the video while
