• Hi. Newbie here.
    I’m using the Kubrick theme.

    What I want to do is:

    1. Change the color on my comment section. When people leave comments, the color is light gray on white background. Almost impossible to see. see here:

    2. Make comments visible on main page, under each post. Preferably, as a “view comments” drop down button/menu.

    3. To be able to click on a Post Title on the main page, and link to that Single Post. (this seems obvious, but mine doesn’t do it.)

    Any help for this newbie is much appreciated!!

  • Your looking for a developer to invest a lot of time for free it appears. With a shopping list like that you won’t get much help here. Try being sneaky and posting one issue at a time. Then you can get your site developed for free; albeit slowly.

    1.
    style.css:

    .commentlist {
    	padding: 0;
    	text-align: justify;
    	}

    add a line with the font color of your choice to it:
    color: #333;

    2.
    your front page template seems to be custom made – it might help to see the code (if you like, please paste the code into a https://pastebin.com/ and post the link to it here).

    3.
    this is the code for a linked title from ‘kubrick’ default index.php:

    <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

    you could try and replace your existing <h3> line with it; or at least get an idea for the coding from it.

    alchymyth Thanks so much!!

    1. got it working!

    2. Not sure which you needed so here’s the style.css
    and here’s the comments.php

    3. I tried replacing as you said. No luck. I’m a layman, so the programming language is foreign to me. Here’s the index.php if you don’t mind peeking? ??

    Many thanks again.

    Ps. Flashbuddy. The site is already developed, and the developer went MIA, so I’m left high and dry when it comes to small tweaks like this. Obviously when I need a big overhaul, I’ll be hiring someone again, hopefully someone that’ll stick around ??

    there seems to be some prep work for comments already;
    there is this line in index.php:

    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/dropdown-comments.php'); ?>

    wordpress does not allow coments on front page by default; you need to add this to the line above:

    <?php global $withcomments; $withcomments = 1; ?>
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/dropdown-comments.php'); ?>

    hopefully the ‘drowpdown-comments.php’ file is active.

    3.
    change this line in index.php:

    <h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><!--<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">--><?php the_title(); ?></h3>

    into:

    <h3 id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h3>

    Unfortunately, no luck ??

    Am I missing something?
