Fixing Messed Up Formatting in Blog Posts

Fortunately, resolving this issue is straightforward, and we'll guide you through the steps.

Updated over a week ago

If you've encountered issues with the formatting of your text in blog posts or text boxes on your Podpage website, such as text appearing as black on a black background or other unintended formatting problems, you're likely dealing with some problematic HTML code that was unintentionally copied into your content. Fortunately, resolving this issue is straightforward, and we'll guide you through the steps.

Step 1: Accessing the Edit Page

  1. Log in to your Podpage account and navigate to the website where you're experiencing the formatting issue.

  2. Once you're on the website's dashboard, locate the specific blog post or episode where the text formatting needs fixing.

  3. Click on the "Edit" button or link associated with that post or episode to access the edit page.

Step 2: Clearing the Formatting

  1. On the edit page, within the identified text box that contains the content with the messed-up formatting, click and drag your cursor to select all the text in that section.

  2. Look for the "Formatting" toolbar within the text box's editing options. You'll notice a button represented by an underline "T" with a small "x" next to it (Tx). This button is your solution for clearing the formatting issues.

  3. After selecting all the text and locating the Tx button, click on it. This action will clear any unwanted formatting from the selected text, returning it to its default appearance.

  4. Click the "Save" or "Update" button on the edit page to save your changes.

  5. After saving, visit your published page to confirm that the text formatting issues have been resolved and that the content displays as intended.

Step 3: Reapply Desired Formatting

  1. If the text looks correct after clearing the formatting, you can now reapply any specific formatting, such as bolding or italics, to the text as needed.

  2. Use the formatting options available in the editor's toolbar to make adjustments as desired.

By following these streamlined steps, you should be able to effectively address and fix formatting problems in your blog posts or text boxes on your Podpage website.
