Comment customization help: remove/change form border [Solved], drop-down box borders

Oct 07, 2007 13:46

I've been messing around with the comment customizations and I believe my problems are easy fixes but I haven't found a post that gives all the details of attributes that can be changed with comments. The starter style-sheet is helpful but I think there's more attributes that I'm unaware of. Is there some sort of comprehensive list of all ( Read more... )

I can't open a reply page to see this behavior, and I can't see any black borders referenced in the CSS code. Either make a post public or temporarily add me to your friends list.
Have you tried asking grrliz, since it's one of her themes?

Thanks for the suggestions on how to get help. I probably should have done those things first ;) I enabled comments and made a public entry. Then I went over to thefulcrum and it seems like she's stumped too.

And to clarify: I get the black border when I hit "leave a comment" on the 'entry' page, not when I hit comment on the 'recent entries' view. What I'm talking about is also what happens with this community.

The borders aren't a big deal, I'm just nit-picking I guess ;) But if you have any suggestions, that would be great! Thanks for your time! I definitely remember you helping me perfect my metadata! ♥

More problems. I couldn't find any satisfying answer in the tags list...

1) How do I change the color of the subject/datetime stamp in comments? (pink dot)

2) How do I get rid of the dividers in a comment's link bar, or at least change the color of them? (green dots) This also goes for the .prevnext links, I don't like the black color of the divider. And, finally,...

3) ... how do I change the border-color of "reply-comments"? (blue dot)

Screenshot of all the colorful dots:

1) .comment-date { color: #xxxxxx;}

2) .separator { color: #xxxxxx;}

3) .comment-even { border-color: #xxxxxx;}

You normally use Opera, right? Since you seem to have a lot of specific questions, I'd recommend you use one of the Firefox extensions that lets you view and modify CSS in real-time. EditCSS is a simple one; Web Developer has a feature that you can use to highlight each specific box. It would certainly save you the trouble of making all these little "dot" graphics. ;)

I was able to change the form border with this:
#comments table {border: 1px dashed blue !important;}
Of course, you'll want to change the style to suit you.
However, the top row isn't its own class, so there's no way to isolate it from the other rows.

Thank you!! The inner row's border doesn't bother me too much and I usually reply from the entry page (where it works perfect) when I'm scrolling the flist anyway.
