One of the popular WordPress template, MistyLook, has some unusual search engines caching problem. I promised in the previous post that i will fix the problem but i got sidetracked with other things. The latest version of this WordPress theme v3.3.1 does not even have this fix (up until now). So, if you are using MistyLook, this post is for you.

The author of MistyLook theme, Sadish Bala, gave very little clue about where the problem can be but he did not solve the complete problem. Because in his opinion, this is not a big issue.

Sadish Bala Said “Actually it is not something of a great concern as long as the content is cached by google. It is doing it right, only thing it is not displayed correctly in the browser.”

I do not agree with him 100% since i mentioned in my older post, blog readers with different languages cannot use online translators (or any other service that fetch your webpage) like Google or Babelfish translators if you are using MistyLook theme. Beside as a theme designer it would be nice to get this fix from him.

So, here is the small fix. Let me know if it works for you.

1. Open the style sheet(style.css) from the MistyLook theme folder
2. Look for #content (around line 200-220), and change the value
   overflow: auto;
TO
overflow: visible;
3. This will solve your problem but Firefox and Opera browser users will still see uneven tables in your website.
4. Open sidebar.php from the MistyLook theme folder and cut these following lines:
   
5. Open footer.php file and paste it before the end of body tag
6. One more time open up the style.css file and add this following line inside #container (around line 85-100)
   height: 100%;
7. Save all the files and upload it to your web server. It should fixed the search engines caching problem for MistyLook WordPress Theme.

Note: I had to modify this template a lot. So, depending on your version of the template you might need more modification. Let me know if i can help in any way. The template has been tested with IE 7, Opera 9.02 and Mozilla Firefox. 2.0.0.5. Here is the screenshots of my search engines cache before and after this fix.
