Comment styling
-
Hi Danny,
1. Can you provide the CSS I’d need to amend the comment font to the same as my blog? I’ve tried to locate, but unsure of what it would be.
The comment content should be the same, because we have not sent any font for comment text. Only the comment buttons and author names are set with certain font.
2. Is there a way to make the “Comments” meta at the top of a post link directly to the comments section when clicked? This is something I’ve found an issue with Disqus and Livefyre – I was wondering, since your plugin is tied to native WP Comments, if it would be easier to make the “Comments” link jump straight to the comments section when clicked.
This is already on the top of our to-do list. We’re currently working on that. We’re going to release this with next wpDiscuz version very soon.
Hi guys,
OK, so I messed about with it a bit more, and got it pretty much to how I want. It was inheriting the font, but not the weight or line height, so I amended that.
Quick additional question, still on comment styling – can I add CSS so there’s double space between comment paragraphs (much like on this thread)?
Currently, even if you hit Enter twice, once the comment goes live, it has single spacing. Double spacing would be preferable.
Thanks again for a great plugin, and look forward to future updates!
Danny.
Hi dannybrown,
Thank you very much for the 5* review.Quick additional question, still on comment styling – can I add CSS so there’s double space between comment paragraphs (much like on this thread)?
Yes, that’s very easy. Just put this CSS in custom CSS field and customize the line-height:
#wpcomm .wc-comment-text { color: #5f5858; font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding-bottom: 5px; text-align: left; }You can change it to something like this:
#wpcomm .wc-comment-text { line-height: 28px!important; }Hi guys,
You’re welcome!
Thanks for the CSS, although that’s just for the styling itself (maybe my fault for not being clearer!). 🙂 Here’s what I mean.
Current spacing with two paragraph comment:
Thankfully there’s been a backlash from consumers and many UK companies now pride themselves and market the fact that they have call centres in the UK. Many of them are still rubbish but at least you can communicate with them slightly better.
I can vouch for O2. I’ve been with them as a mobile phone provider since 1997 and they’ve never really let me down!Required spacing with two paragraph comment

See the gap between better. from the first paragraph, and I from the second? That’s the space I mean. Can this be done? Cheers!
Ok, thank you for this explanation. Now we see the issue.
Sure, this is not a problem, we’ll add this in next wpDiscuz release.Thanks, look forward to it! 🙂

Hi again,
So I just updated, but unfortunately the option to show notifications of all new comments, and replies to new comments, doesn’t seem to save. I can check the box, but when I save these settings, the boxes are blank again.
Hi dannybrown,
Please try to deactivate, delete and re-install the plugin.Will do. It must be a theme thing, as it worked on my theme, but not two belonging to my wife (both domains are using the Divi 2.0 theme from Elegant Themes).
Additionally, what would be the CSS used to reduce the space between the paragraphs? As it stands now, it’s a little large, I’d just like to reduced a little.
Thanks again for a great plugin!
Hi dannybrown,
We noticed that the new options are not being saved on some websites, we’re currently working on this issue and are planning to release wpDiscuz 2.0.1 in a few hours. If you’ll have the same issue please wait for a few hours and update it again.Also if you have a cache plugin, do not forget to reset all caches.

Just put this CSS in custom CSS field and customize the line-height:
#wpcomm .wc-comment-text { line-height: 20px!important; }you can set it 18px, 20px, 22px and see which is good for you.
wpDiscuz 2.0.1 released please update
Perfect, thanks guys! 🙂
Hi again guys,
So I added that CSS, but it doesn’t seem to have worked on any of the themes I run. I’ve cleared the cache on all to make sure, but spacing between the paragraphs seem the same – any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi guys,
So, loving the plugin after a few weeks of use, clean and very fast, great job! Couple of questions/suggestions:
1. Can you provide the CSS I’d need to amend the comment font to the same as my blog? I’ve tried to locate, but unsure of what it would be. My blog uses the following CSS for the main body:
article .entry-content {
margin: 70px auto 50px auto;
display: block;
font-family: ‘Lato’, sans-serif;
font-weight: 350;
text-align: left;
font-size: 20px;
color: #5f5858;
}
2. Is there a way to make the “Comments” meta at the top of a post link directly to the comments section when clicked? This is something I’ve found an issue with Disqus and Livefyre – I was wondering, since your plugin is tied to native WP Comments, if it would be easier to make the “Comments” link jump straight to the comments section when clicked.
Thanks again for a great plugin!
Danny.
