I've tried a few things for your first problem, but I can't seem to come up with anything. I think that because the images are being replaced with CSS, and not coded into the HTML itself, it might not be possible to do hover/alt text. On the plus side, when I hover the buttons, the link shows up in my bar, so I can tell where they go, plus the buttons themselves are fairly clear. The only one that gave me pause was the box with the arrow coming out of it - I expected that to be the "share this" for some reason. Maybe a little chain image to indicate "link" for the permalink, instead?

Thanks so much for the reply, appreciate the help!

My comment link bar text is being replaced in a paid layer using the tutorial found here at this community? I'm not using any css to replace them :3

Can you link to your theme layer? You need to make it publicly viewable.

Oops, sorry I forgot entirely to do that! Does this work for you now?

Did you get this working, or did you still want help?

I haven't figured out how to add alt text to let people know what button they're hovering over, no. I would love some more help! Thank you!

Hey! I wanted to let you know I haven't forgotten about you, it's just taken me a while to get back to you because of all the Styles problems going on right now. I've actually figured out how to add "alt" and "title" (you should have both, for accessibility reasons) text for everything but the Reply button. I can't cut and paste all the code because it's too long for a comment, but I can tell you which lines to change.
In Entry::print_linkbar(), you have a section that looks like this:
if ($.comments.count > 0 or $.comments.screened) {
"""
  • $.comments.count
    ... )

    Thanks so much!

    I just haven't had much time to poke at my custom layer to do this yet, but I wanted you to know (finally) that I'm grateful for an answer!
