  • in comments.php, find:

    <p class="nocomments"><?php _e( 'Comments are closed.', 'adventurejournal' ); ?></p>

    remove as much as you like;
    btw:
    the common css fix .nocomments { display: none; } should have worked.

    in loop.php (does occur more than once, change all), find:

    <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'adventurejournal' ), __( '1 Comment', 'adventurejournal' ), __( '% Comments', 'adventurejournal' ) ); ?></span>

    change that to:
    <span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'adventurejournal' ), __( '1 Comment', 'adventurejournal' ), __( '% Comments', 'adventurejournal' ),'','' ); ?></span>

    this adds the fifth parameter as an empty string to overwrite the default ‘Comments Off’ – http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/comments_popup_link

    Thanks for the quick response but…still get Comments None or Comments Off
    1. Tried easiest, adding to CSS
    2. Tried removing just text from comments.php and then the whole code: <p class=”nocomments”><?php _e( ‘Comments are closed.’, ‘adventurejournal’ ); ?></p>
    3. Tried the replacement code in loop.php

    Any other suggestions?
    In gratitude!

    but…still get Comments None or Comments Off

    please post a link to the pages where the ‘comments …’ text appears.

    have you cleared all caches, including browser cache?

    also, double check that the edited files are actually on the server in the actual themes folder.

    Well, I did clear cache etc. yesterday – even changed Themes, deleted Adventure Journal and then installed it again – with no luck. So I installed a different Theme.

    THEN TODAY I changed back to Adventure Journal and now it’s good! I was surprised it kept my code changes – or it seems to have because I see just 1 instance of where I changed the code in loop.php (and NOW I see you said it will appear several times and to change all! Changing just one seems ok.

    Here’s the test site – if my client does choose this Theme I will copy this code! http://www.saraohara.com/wp8/

    Thanks so much!
