Title: Selectors help Last modified: August 21, 2016 --- # Selectors help * Resolved [alexsouthwriter](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexsouthwriter/) * (@alexsouthwriter) * [12 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/) * Hi, * I don’t know much about a code, so could you tell me which selectors do what? * Basically, I have no idea what I need to put in the selectors box, to make the comment bubbles appear with each paragraph. * (perhaps this would be something to add to F.A.Q – for other non-coders?) * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/inline-comments/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/inline-comments/) Viewing 10 replies - 1 through 10 (of 10 total) * Plugin Author [kevinweber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinweber/) * (@kevinweber) * [12 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708494) * Hi Alex, * thanks for your feedback! * You can use the example from below the settings box: `h1, .single-post p, span, blockquote` or simply try `p, span, blockquote` * Or send me your website URL and I’ll have a quick look. * Regards, Kevin * [jschrau](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jschrau/) * (@jschrau) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708511) * Hi, I’m having trouble formatting my comments bubbles and getting them to appear where I want them. I saw your advice above and tried it, but I’m having issues with bubbles appearing where I don’t want them. I have a bunch of them clustered around my widgets right now, and I would like to block them entirely from pages like my email contact form page. My website is wanttowrite.com if you want to look and see what it’s doing. I would really appreciate any help anyone can give me! * Plugin Author [kevinweber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinweber/) * (@kevinweber) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708512) * Hi jschrau, try something like this: `.category #primary p` * Regards, Kevin * [jschrau](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jschrau/) * (@jschrau) * [12 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708513) * That seems to have worked perfectly! Thanks so much! * [eosdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eosdev/) * (@eosdev) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708520) * I know you think your instructions make sense but to a non-coder, they do not. I have tried being literal and typing the things you suggested into the selector. Result? Nothing. My latest attempt was just to type h2 in the selector box because I would like it beside every h2 headline if comments are allowed on the page. Still nothing. Could you please be a bit clearer about what goes on? Do I need to add HTML coding to the page itself? Thank you in advance for your help. * [http://www.cyndikirkpatrick.com](http://www.cyndikirkpatrick.com) * Plugin Author [kevinweber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinweber/) * (@kevinweber) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708521) * [@eosdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eosdev/), you mustn’t change any coding from your theme. “h2” doesn’t make sense in your case, because your site does not use headlines with

tags, I think. Try **h1** instead, or simply** p** to add inline comments to any paragraph. * Does this work? * Regards, Kevin * [eosdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eosdev/) * (@eosdev) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708522) * Thank you for your very prompt feedback! * I do use the h2 tag on this page: [http://cyndikirkpatrick.com/foolswalk/thefool/](http://cyndikirkpatrick.com/foolswalk/thefool/) * And plan to have about thirty pages in the same format. The h2 line is the poem title on the right. So, as I understand it, I should be seeing a comment bubble to the right of it but I don’t. * Plugin Author [kevinweber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinweber/) * (@kevinweber) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708523) * Hi, * I can see a “+” when I **hover** the heading, look at this screenshot: [https://ssl-account.com/cloud.kevinw.de/public.php?service=files&t=575f148a5a440ace85c80ef3b47a3c37](https://ssl-account.com/cloud.kevinw.de/public.php?service=files&t=575f148a5a440ace85c80ef3b47a3c37) That’s it. The rest is a question of styling. * Regards, Kevin * [eosdev](https://wordpress.org/support/users/eosdev/) * (@eosdev) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708524) * AH!! So it only shows up on mouseover and I need to style it to be much more prominent. But it is there. Thanks you so much. I would have looked forever and not seen it on my screen even when it was on. * Thanks again! * Plugin Author [kevinweber](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kevinweber/) * (@kevinweber) * [11 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/selectors-help/#post-4708525) * Nice to hear 🙂 * PS: Notice to give this plugin a five star rating [here](http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/inline-comments?filter=5).
