# comments form link broken

 * My blog [74 Lime Lane](http://74limelane.com.au) was working just fine until 
   about 24 hours ago. In the middle of the night my time, suddenly no one could
   comment.
    The comments redirection appears to have change to #respond from #comments.
   Neither new or old posts work. Neither from a single page or the main page. No
   upgrades, no code changes, wasn’t even on line when it broke. Tried all the above,
   plus several fixes found here, but nothing makes a difference. Interestingly 
   enough, the white background for the page also disappears when trying to go to
   the comments page. Any ideas? Thanks for your time.

 * You have quite a few [validation errors](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2F74limelane.com.au%2F)–
   some of which you have created within your posts. They could be cuasing some 
   problems. But most significantly `wp-content/themes/newyorklime/custom.css` is
   missing. For what it’s worth, your comments and your comment form are being output
   onto the page but they’re not visible – possibly because of the missing stylesheet.
 * You may also have a bad plugin, so try deactivating all plugins to see if this
   resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until
   you find the problematic plugin(s).

 * Hey Esmi,
 * Thanks so much for your time. The custom.css file was in fact there, although
   I moved it up a level out of a folder of the similar name. Unfortunately, that
   didn’t work.
 * So I did the plugin thing, which I probably should have done all along. And it
   was that. A print-friendly one.
 * Thanks again for your help, really appreciate it.
