Post comments, caps on

There doesn’t currently appear to be any comments on any of the articles on your site. While I suspect it might be a theme-specific issue, can you post a link to an example with comments so that someone can take a look at the problem?

Hi erickow,

Upon checking your site (maskgrin.com) and tried typing a comment, the text indeed is displaying in caps.

That is because a text-transform:uppercase style has been defined as you can see on the following snapshot (when inspecting the textarea via firebug): https://screencast.com/t/mBQTGBNJObv

You can try to edit your base.css file here:
https://maskgrin.com/wp-content/themes/logger/css/base.css

on line #138 and remove the text-transform style. That would also affect the other fields though so you can just be specific to your textarea.

Please let me know if that’s what you wanted. Thank you!

Just to add a bit more to that:

“Logger” is a commercial theme, and as such, may offer an option in the theme customization area where you can enter and apply your own custom CSS. It’s usually recommended that you make any changes in either a child theme, or in the user defined CSS options. (if either of those are available options, of course).

In any case, commercial themes aren’t supported here, and it’s also usually recommended that you consult the usage documentation that came with your theme and take advantage of the support channels made available at the point of purchase.

Very well said Clayton, also if you wouldn’t otherwise resort to touching the base.css file, you can of course, create your own style to overwrite those that are already defined. Something like:

textarea {text-transform: none !important;}

and this just might be possible to be implemented from within your wordpress admin dashboard.

Thanks for that folks, I have messed around with a virtual one and base css definitely is the cause, although adding to wp admin does resolve. Appreciate your help

You are very welcome mr. erickow, so glad we could help!
