Need to change "No Comment" to "Please Comment" (2 posts)

    This is a very basic question - I'm using the Cutline Theme and I see that when a post has no comments the words "No Comments" appear at the bottom of the post. I would like to change this to something like "Please Comment" or "Comments Welcome"... anysway something more inviting. How can I do that???

    If you look carefully inside the first few files listed next to the edit window (for example - single.php) you'll find the "No comments" text within a PHP command string. Be very careful to change only the text and not touch anything else, like surrounding quotation marks. Also, I found that changing the "1 comment" and "# comments" (or whatever) to anything else broke it.

    You'll have to change it in all the files where it appears to make it change on every version of a page that might be displayed.

    If you are unsure of what you are doing, make a backup first.
