Triton Lite – comments & replies – font colour modification
-
How do I change the font colour for Comments and replies to comments ONLY? I am using Triton Lite and my replies to comments are showing white on white!! Thank-you.

@pennshutter, Sorry about that. I’m passing this issue on to Team Custom for investigation, but I see you have the premium upgrade, which comes with the ability to change the CSS. I have added a bit of CSS code to your site to take care of this until the issue can be investigated. I made the background for the author’s comments just a little darker than the background color you have (#9A8F6A). You can edit the color code if you wish by going to Appearance > Custom Design in your dashboard and then click on the Edit button in the CSS module. What you will see is the following:
ol.commentlist li.bypostauthor div.comment, ol.commentlist li.bypostauthor li.bypostauthor div.comment, ol.commentlist li.bypostauthor li.bypostauthor li.bypostauthor div.comment { background: #9A8F6A; }Here is a link to a hex color code picker if you want to change the color of the author comment background: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/ref_colorpicker.asp
I hope that helps.

Thank-you very, very much! I am a total non-tech person and if I had to add CSS code, I would still be waiting! So,thank-you, thank-you, thank-you! It’s now just perfect without changing much chosen colour scheme. And I can finally publish that post. I do hope you can read it … I would love your opinion on my first ever blogpost – much delayed – but still … 😄
To avoid my forever writing to you with these kind of issues, is there anywhere I should try to learn this CSS stuff?!?

Hi Pennshutter, You are welcome and I will definitely take a look at your first post.
Here are a few of our support documents on CSS that will get you started. At the bottom of the Edit CSS document is a list of good tutorials that you may find helpful.
Custom Design
CSS Basics
Editing CSSYou can dive in after getting a little familiar and test CSS changes out and preview them without saving. You could also sign up for another blog to use as a test blog. You can try out and preview CSS changes without having to buy the upgrade. A test blog is a nice place to practice instead of on your live, public blog, and if you get stuck, you can make use of the CSS forum here.
Cheers

Hi. I am taking up that offer! I published the blog and then posted the link onto my Facebook pages. From both pages I have been told that there is a security issue! One of my friends kindly sent me the message … As below … Is there something wrong with my blog settings?
“You have asked Firefox to connect securely to pennshutter.com, but we can’t confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site’s identity can’t be verified. What Should I Do? If you usually connect to this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn’t continue. pennshutter.com uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.wordpress.com , wordpress.com (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)”

Hi, I just tested your site and looked and no flags are set, and I checked it with Sucuri.net, and everything comes up clean.
Firefox (and most browsers) will give a warning like that when you go to a site with https:// (https://pennshutter.com/) instead of http:// (http://pennshutter.com/). Since there is no secure content on the public side of your site, the browser will throw up that warning.
When you post links to your site, make sure they begin with http:// instead of https:// . Send your friends a link starting with http:// and ask them to check it, but I’m confident with http:// they will not see that warning.
I hope that helps.

Hi. Sorry but people are still reporting in that they are getting a message that the site is harmful! Though others have ignored the warning and opened the page.

Hi there and sorry for the continued problem. Since I can’t see the FB link, can you copy the link you posted and send it to me in a reply? There is a possibility of the link defaulting back to a cached version in the visitor’s history, if they had visited the other link, when they try and visit the new link.
Best,

Hi sorry for the delay in replying. We were trvelling.
The post is
Hi friends, I understand the earlier link did not work. You can see a novice is at work here! Try this one, please …

Sorry, the link you provided, works fine for me in Safari, Firefox and Chrome. I only get the warning if I change it to https://pennshutter.com/ . If you can, contact the people that are having the issue and ask them to clear their browser caches and then try again on the second link without the “S” and I think that will clear up the issue. Here is a link to our support document containing instructions on clearing browser caches: http://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clear-your-cache-and-cookies
I hope that helps. Let me know.

Thank-you. I have posted your reply on my Facebook page. As soon as someone responds. I shall let you know!

Hi. Nobody sepecifically replied to me, but since a couple of people have opened the page and not complained, I guess its working! Thank-you again.
On a different note – is it possible to change the heading of this thread? I think “teething problems with new blogs” would be more appropriate! We could maybe remove the irrelevant remarks and be left with a series of quick fix pointers!
One more query. I know there is limited “air space” I can use to store photographs, etc. So if I wanted to add a “gallery” page with images only how would this be treated? Can I do folders within such a page? And if I removed media from the site to make way for new pictures on new posts then I am guessing a “?” will show up in the old post? Is there any way to circumvent this issue?

WordPress.com does not support folders in galleries, but you can accomplish the same thing by setting up galleries on subpages and linking to them from the parent page or wherever else you wish.
For more information please see this guide on page parents:
Page AttributesIf an image is deleted the link to it will no longer display the image, but rather an error page on your blog.

Thank-you. I will be able to play with all the features again from next week and am looking forward to exploring this amazing canvas.

Pennshutter.
