 * Hello,
 * I see that I can get a hand here with my issues. I have a couple of issues which
   I’d like to have resolved. My website with a sample post: [Post](http://niedopomyslenia.pl/zawiedziona-barcelona-cz-1/)
 * 1. in posts I’d like to have possibility to make font bigger and have more space
   for text (segment with text to be wider, so move tags and category more to the
   left and widgets to the right). Is that possible?
 * 2. at the same time I’d like widgets segment to be wider (as you can see Facebook
   page cannot fit in to this narrow column)
 * 3. in posts I’d like the topic of the post and date to stop from disappearing
   when scrolling down (as it’s done on the home page in slide one)
 * 4. Is it possible to delete “0 comments” as it doesn’t count Disqus comments?(
   I tested)
 * 5. How can I translate “Read more” to anything else?
 * Thank you!

 * Hi there,
 * > 1. in posts I’d like to have possibility to make font bigger and have more 
   > space for text (segment with text to be wider, so move tags and category more
   > to the left and widgets to the right). Is that possible?
 * It’s possible to achieve both of those things with some custom CSS.
 * To add custom CSS: Firstly [set up a child theme](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
   or [activate a custom CSS plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search.php?q=custom+css).(
   If you have [Jetpack](https://jetpack.com) installed then you can activate [its custom CSS module](https://jetpack.com/support/custom-css/).)
 * Enter the following snippet in either the editor for your CSS plugin or the style.
   css file of your child theme in order to increase the size of the font on your
   site:
 *     ```
       body, button, input, select, textarea {
           font-size: 18px;
           font-size: 1.8rem;
       }
       ```
   
 * Increase/decrease the first value of **font-size** to your liking. Also make 
   sure that the second value stays exactly a tenth the value of the first. (You
   can find [more on the reasoning behind this here](https://snook.ca/archives/html_and_css/font-size-with-rem),
   if you’re interested.)
 * You can the increase/decrease the width of the meta information to the left of
   your post with the following:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 40.063em) {
           .entry-meta {
               width: 25%;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * And increase the width of your post’s content area with this snippet:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 40.063em) {
           .entry-main, .paging-navigation, .post-navigation {
               float: right;
               width: 75%;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * Ensure that the total width of the meta information plus the width of the post’s
   content area equals 100%.

 * > 2. at the same time I’d like widgets segment to be wider (as you can see Facebook
   > page cannot fit in to this narrow column)
 * The main content area (that contains **both** the meta information and post’s
   content) can be increased/decreased by targeting **body.secondary-sidebar #primary**
   in your site’s custom CSS:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 64.063em) {
           body.secondary-sidebar #primary {
               width: 75%;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * The width sidebar (containing the widgets) can then be changed with the following:
 *     ```
       @media only screen and (min-width: 64.063em) {
           body.secondary-sidebar #secondary {
               width: 25%;
           }
       }
       ```
   
 * As before, increase/decrease the value of **width** to your liking in the above
   snippets. They should equal 100% when added together in order to keep everything
   inline on your site.

   > when scrolling down (as it’s done on the home page in slide one)
 * Are you trying to set the title on your posts so that they always display and
   never disappear on scroll? If I’m understanding you correctly, then the following
   custom CSS will do the trick:
 *     ```
       .single-post .hsContent.skrollable.skrollable-between, .single-post .hsContent.skrollable.skrollable-after {
           opacity: 1 !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * Please note that the use of the **!important** command in CSS is not considered
   best practise but is necessary in this case to override some [inline styling](http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/tutorials/css/inline).
 * Let me know if the above snippet helps with what you’re trying to achieve or 
   if you were after something else.

 * > 4. Is it possible to delete “0 comments” as it doesn’t count Disqus comments?(
   > I tested)
 * The link to your comments can be hidden with the following custom CSS:
 *     ```
       .comments-link {
           display: none;
       }
       ```

 * > 5. How can I translate “Read more” to anything else?
 * We use a tool named GlotPress to manage translations for themes in the WordPress.
   org repository, and you can contribute directly here:
 * [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/harmonic/pl/default](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-themes/harmonic/pl/default)
 * Once you have submitted the translations for Harmonic, you can find steps to 
   getting them approved in the Translation handbook here:
 * [https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/tools/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/#approval-of-translations-validating](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/tools/glotpress-translate-wordpress-org/#approval-of-translations-validating)
 * You will then be able to download the translation file and upload it your theme’s**
   languages** folder.
 * Hope that helps!

 * That’s perfect Siobhan, thank you very much! That helped me with one exception.
 * Unfortunately comments count is still visible.
 * I also remembered that “Related posts” function doesn’t work since the beggining.
   It’s enabled in the settings.
 * Again, thanks!

 * Give this a try:
 *     ```
       .entry-meta .comments-link {
         display: none; 
       }
       ```

 * Related posts functionality isn’t built into the theme, so perhaps you’re using
   a plugin for that? I’d suggest posting in the plugin’s forum if they’re not working
   as expected.

 * I checked in demo on wordpress.com and it worked, but nevermind, I’ll look for
   some plugin 🙂 But comment count disappeared now.
 * Siobhan and Kathryn, thank you for your help, it was awesome! Much appreciated.

 * WordPress.com has the Related Posts feature built in.
 * On a self-hosted site like yours, you can get the same Related Posts functionality
   you see on WordPress.com by actvating the Jetpack plugin’s Related Posts module.
   If you need any help with it, feel free to post in the Jetpack forum:

   anything else.
