moving comments link below post

  • I want to move the comments link from above the post (right now it’s top right) to below the post (bottom right). I’m pretty sure it involves modifying the code in the index.php or single.php, but I’m not sure exactly where to move it because my php knowledge is very basic at this point.

    The theme is white-gold.

    Here’s the code for the single.php:

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN”
    “https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd”&gt;

    <html xmlns=”https://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml”&gt;

    <head>
    <?php
    $options = get_option(‘wg_options’);
    ?>
    <?php get_header(); ?>
    </head>

    <body>
    <div id=”wrapper”>
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/banner.php”); ?>
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/menu.php”); ?>
    <div id=”content”>
    <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/leftsidebar.php”); ?>
    <div class=”container”>
    <ul class=”posts”>
    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
    <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    • <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/item.php”); ?>
      <?php if (function_exists(‘wp_list_comments’)): ?>
      <!– WP 2.7 and above –>
      <?php comments_template(”, true); ?>

      <?php else : ?>
      <!– WP 2.6 and below –>
      <?php comments_template(); ?>
      <?php endif; ?>

      • <?php endwhile; ?>
      <?php else : ?>

    • <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/missing.php”); ?>

      • <?php endif; ?>

      </div>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/rightsidebar.php”); ?>
      </div>
      <?php get_footer(); ?>
      </div>
      </body>

      </html>

      Here’s the code for the index.php:

      <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN”
      “https://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd”&gt;

      ?>
      <?php get_header(); ?>
      </head>

      <body>

      <div id=”wrapper”>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/banner.php”); ?>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/menu.php”); ?>

      <div id=”content”>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/leftsidebar.php”); ?>

      <div class=”container”>
      <ul class=”posts”>
      <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
      <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

    • <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/item.php”); ?>
      <?php if (function_exists(‘wp_list_comments’)): ?>

      <?php else : ?>
      <!– WP 2.6 and below –>

      <?php endif; ?>

      • <?php endwhile; ?>
      <?php else : ?>

    • <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . “/missing.php”); ?>

      • <?php endif; ?>

    • <?php if (!is_page()) { ?>
      <div class=”navigation”>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/navigation.php”); ?>
      </div>
      <?php } ?>

      • </div>
      <?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . “/rightsidebar.php”); ?>
      </div>
      <?php get_footer(); ?>
      </div>

  • Could you post your site address? I know nothing about php, but if noone else is going to answer, we might be able to figure this out. We need to see the order of things by looking at your site. I think I already have an idea to fix it, but want to see your site first.

    You will have to edit the “item.php” file. In order to move the comments link below the post.
