  Hello All,

  I’ve just switched to Wu Wei template, and my comment threads look dreadful. After a couple of replies, the column width gets really compressed. How can I fix this?

  Many thanks.

  I’m afraid that with the narrow width of the content area on Wu Wei, you are kind of stuck unless you want to widen the theme. That would mean widening your header image to match the new width and Wu Wei can be a little challenging CSS wise. It can be done though.

  Actually let me play with it a little. I might be able to do something with the comment threading itself.

  Give this a try and see what you think. The 10em padding I changed to 6em. It puts less space between the gravatar and the comment body text.

  ol.commentlist li {
  padding: 0.333em 0 0 6em;
  }

  You’re welcome. Much easier than changing the width of the content area.

  You could make the comments section take up the whole blog width. I’m not very familiar with the theme so I don’t know if the space is used for anything usually but try this code and see if it works for you:

  #comment-wrapper {padding:0;}
