    Hi all

    I am dipping my toes into the waters of WordPress and am after a little help. On my site, alexlees.com.nu, I am trying to adjust the width of the html tags on the comment box when replying to a post, the part that tells you what tags you can use. It is too wide on my site and I want to adjust it. I have tried adding width to the p class on the single post template but it refuses to change. Anyone know how I can change it?

    Also if you look at the botton of the blog page and at the bottom of a post, I can’t for the life of me adjust the bottom of the page into line with the rest and make it transparent, it is driving me nuts.

    Please help.

    Thanks

  • Sorry, I misread. Removing my comment I’d had.

    From what I see, the footer is only misaligned in the posts section (using Chrome). I believe the HTML tag attributes is specifically what is throwing the comments off there, and once that is resolved it will fall back into place.
    As for the width, have you tried setting it at 100% (or 98%) for the section in which the tag’s are contained? Currently, it’s setting itself at whatever width it wants regardless of the background, so you’ll need to have a maximum width.

    @roselaw86: It is impolite to interrupt another poster’s ongoing thread unless you are posting a solution or suggestion. Especially as your issue is completely different. It causes significant problems for the forum’s volunteers and prevents us from being able to track issues by topic. Please post your own topic.

    @foseco: Try using Firefox with the Firebug add-on for this kind of CSS troubleshooting. Or use whatever developer tool is available in your web browser.

    The allowed tags section of the comments form is caused by white-space: nowrap;

    Try putting:

    .comments-area code {
        white-space: normal;
    }

    in your CSS file.
