Only title to appear in link colour and left aligned text

Resolved keelym

1. When my comment displays all the text (user, title and excerpt) appear in my link colour. How can I make just the link on the title appear in my link colour and the rest appear in black?

2. Is it possible to have all the text left aligned instead of wrapping around the avatar? If the avatar is a decent size then if the the title splits onto 2 lines it leaves a big space between the 2 lines.

Thanks for your help

The widget provides a number of CSS classes that allow you to style the list.

If you’re familiar with html/css, feel free to check out the html source and css on my site to see how I’ve styled the list: http://darrinb.com/blog/

My list is styled similar to what you’re describing, so that should get you going in the right direction.

Thanks for your reply but I’m not familiar with html/css. Is there any other help you can give me?

Can you provide a link to your site with the plugin installed and the widget active?

My site is not active yet. I can make you a user if you give me an email address.

Ok, this should work: https://gist.github.com/dboutote/ec7e1b7bde7c5d872ec582f2969abc55

Try adding that to your theme’s stylesheet.

Thanks for your help with this, that’s looking really good now.

There is now a problem with the link not taking the user to the correct comment. Would you please let me know what I can do? The widget appears on my home page.

I’m not following? I clicked the first comment link under “Recent Blog and Resources Comments” and it took me to the correct comment.

The link url in the widget is:
[site-home]/resources/from-business-consultancy-to-business-resultancy/#comment-10

The link content was:
“I find it interesting that the CEO’s in the article approach hiring consultants”

Clicking the link URL indicator on the comment itself showed the link:
[site-home]/resources/from-business-consultancy-to-business-resultancy/#comment-10

Seems to be working, as far as I can tell.

Thanks Darrin. It’s still not always coming up right when I try it but I don’t think it’s the widget. I’m very happy with how it’s looking now.

Do you mean where your screen scrolls to when the page loads? If so, that’s because you have a fixed header. But in terms of the actual link, the url is correct.

Yep that’s what I mean and I can see that the url is correct. Not ideal but I can live with it.
