You’re right essaysnark. It shows up as http:://www.zombieboycomics.com under his name in my moderate comments list.

Now I just have to find out where it’s linking from.

Thank you so much for your help! ??

Thanks for looking into this for me! ??

No I didn’t have any idea. Which link did you see the double colon in so I can correct it?

I found that by going to the editing page of my original comic with the issue and clicking the update button that the issue is cleared up.

However I don’t know what is causing this in the first place.

It worked like a charm! Thank you so much for taking the time to post that!

Alright, after getting assistance from Frumph from the comicpress forum I was able to put together a CSS code that I placed in the Dashboard/Appearance/Edit CSS page.

.sidebar .widget {
color: #fff;
}

h4, .sidebar .widget h2 {
border-bottom:4px;
color:#111111;
font-size:18px;
}

Thank you both for your suggestions. In time I’ll better understand how to customize a website. But I need to do it in small steps. ??

Thanks for that suggestion Andrew. Yes, I still need to do more reading on all of this. I’ve only worked in php a couple of times in the past month.

Wow! you guys are fast!

esmi,
Thank you. I bookmarked the Firebug website and will read it in a little bit. This is my first website and I’ve only been working on it for about a month so I really don’t know much about CSS except that I should not play with it. Is this a program that a beginner such as myself can use?

I am using “Comicpress GreyMatter”. It’s a theme avaliable on the WordPress site but I don’t know what would make a theme fall under a “custom” category so I can’t answer yes or no.

Alchymyth,

Oh my god, it worked! Thank you!
I’m stunned with how quickly you were able to solve my issues.

I’ll be checking that third computer this evening to make sure the website pages are displaying correctly on it. At that point I’ll mark this topic as resolved.

Again, thank you for helping me. There is no way I would have figured this out by myself.

Alchymyth,

Thank you! ??

That seemed to have fixed my homepage.

I added that code (cut and paste) following some directions I found to get a custom avatar on my comments section. It didn’t go well for me (my entire site went blank) so I stayed away from php ever since.

However, my “Cast” page is still not showing up correctly.

There was another time (following directions) I did some editing where I tried to get the “EMAIL” box in comments to read next to it “Required/Not Published” or “Email will not be displayed”. It didn’t work and my site didn’t seem to be altered in any way so I left my edit alone in fear of really messing something up. Lesson learned. I’ll look to see if I can remember where that was and correct it in case that might be messing something else up that I haven’t noticed yet.

Thank you so much for your help!

Alchymyth,
Thank you so much for replying so quickly!
I started working on my website three weeks ago and just begun to share it with others. No one suggested so far that the background was too dark to read. (I might have to start calling them)

One of the two computers experiencing this issue is running IE9. I currently don’t have access to the other one. Both computers having this issue were used to view my website when I first started working on it. I never logged in as admin on them before today.

Where you said, “(wrong) php code at the end of that style.css” do you know where that code might have come from? I try and stay away from php and css since I’m new to this and do not want to mess anything up.

Thanks!
Bill Murphy

RESOLVED.

I thought I was signed in with my Host provider while viewing the FTP page. Once I signed in I was able to manually correct the text.

***Update***

I’ve found the broken text in my FTP site. My problem is now I cannot change the text to correct this. It is just a static page. If this is the solution to my problem I still need to know how to alter an FTP page.

Thank you to anyone that can help.
