Title: Comments CSS Awry (HELP ME) Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # Comments CSS Awry (HELP ME) * Resolved [ronen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ronen/) * (@ronen) * [20 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-css-awry-help-me/) * Same day I start bringing in members to [http://cinemalog.net](http://cinemalog.net), the machine goes crazy. * The main page looks just fine (at least in firefox, but thats another story) yet * Inexplicably, when you click to a specific post (ie/or when the comments page is open) the whole scheme goes bananas, and I haven’t foggiest idea why. * Even stranger, is that my on-site demo version of the site (via xxamp) doesn’t seem to be exhibiting this difficulty. * Could anybody help me pinpoint what’s changing when the comments show up, so I can find where the problem is?? Thank a lot! * Ronen * EDIT/PS: every non-main page (ie, even author pages with no comment boxes) is screwed up. * Yet, when I close comments, everything goes back to normal. * Anyone who can help as soon as possible gets a Roger-Rabbit-esque smooch.
