Full Version: Missing Space Between Author Name And "on" (date)?
Movable Type Community Forum > Using Movable Type > Default Stylesheets
MFM
Using two stylesheets on two blogs, Unity Tricolor and cityscape-seattle, Internet Explorer 7 (not firefox or Safari) makes it look like there's no space between the author name and the word "on", even though in the metadata template the space is there.

It displays "Posted by Franon February 13, 2008" instead of "Posted by Fran on February 13, 2008"

I'm sure others have noticed this but I didn't find anything in a forum search. Any fix or workaround? Thanks.

What I did was add a   in the template before the on.

Hey, I had that problem too. Is it this file?

/mt/default_templates/entry_metadata.mtml

Does changing this work if you are using a different theme?

I've made the change and republished, but still having a spacing issue for one user (who's name is linked), but not for my byline (no link).

Thanks!

Okay, so I made changes to entry_metadata but it has had no effect.

What fixed it for me is adding a space after our names under user management, in the Display Name field.

I'm using "Hills Dusk" theme though so maybe I edited the wrong entry_metadata file?
