[freeflow]

Can't realy tell you how to fix it since we don't have your wp login stuff so I have to ask you what was the last thing you edited? sorry but thats the easiest way to track down the problem

[Mulder]

ill try and peek if you'll tell me your login.

i think you've either included the sidebar in the comments.php file or the header in the comments.php file, but i cant be sure.

[Mulder]

i guess it would be in the index.php file then. i dont see anything wrong with the comments.php file.

[add1cted2f1re]

CODE

    <div id="content" class="narrowcolumn">

    <?php if (have_posts()) : ?>
        
        <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
                
            <div class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
                <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
                <small><?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?> <!-- by <?php the_author() ?> --></small>
                
                <div class="entry">

    <?php endif; ?>

    </div>


<?php get_footer(); ?>

?

[Mulder]

wheres the <?php get_header(); ?>
if meli did your wordpress than i know she would have that function..

are you sure thats your complete index.php file? are you copying the one from the theme you're currently using, or the default theme?

[add1cted2f1re]

thats the one from the theme i am using

[Mulder]

well, im out then.

i know how my themes arranged, and i assumed that meli would do the same steps she included in her tutorial...
and i dont even see how your theme would produce the page it has now. you should have a link to the header in the index.php file. all it would be right now is the blog itself...


when i viewed the source of the page, i can easily see the problem.
you have header image and sidebar in the code twice.
how exactly are you using wordpress? more like my tutorial or what?

[freeflow]

Ok Copy your comments template, save it.
Change it to this one:

CODE

<?php if ( !empty($post->post_password) && $_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) : ?>
<p><?php _e('Enter your password to view comments.'); ?></p>
<?php return; endif; ?>

<h2 id="comments"><?php comments_number(__('0 CMMENTS'), __('1CMMENT'), __('% CMMENTS')); ?>
<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
    <a href="#postcomment" title="<?php _e("Leave a comment"); ?>">&raquo;</a>
<?php endif; ?>
</h2>

<?php if ( $comments ) : ?>
<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>

<div class="<?=($i%2)?"color1":"color2";$i++;?> z-index:3;">
<p class="title"><?php comment_author_link() ?> <?php edit_comment_link(__("Edit This"), ' |'); ?></p>
<?php comment_text() ?>
<br><br></div>
    

<?php endforeach; ?>

</ol>

<?php else : // If there are no comments yet ?>
    <p><?php _e('No comments yet.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

<p><?php comments_rss_link(__('<abbr title="Really Simple Syndication">RSS</abbr> feed for comments on this post.')); ?>
<?php if ( pings_open() ) : ?>
    <a href="<?php trackback_url() ?>" rel="trackback"><?php _e('TrackBack <abbr title="Uniform Resource Identifier">URI</abbr>'); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
</p>

<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<h2 id="postcomment"><?php _e('Leave a comment'); ?></h2>
<center>
<?php if ( get_option('comment_registration') && !$user_ID ) : ?>
<p>You must be <a href="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php?redirect_to=<?php the_permalink(); ?>">logged in</a> to post a comment.</p>
<?php else : ?>

<form action="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-comments-post.php" method="post" id="commentform">

<?php if ( $user_ID ) : ?>

<p>Logged in as <a href="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-admin/profile.php"><?php echo $user_identity; ?></a>. <a href="<?php echo get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php?action=logout" title="<?php _e('Log out of this account') ?>">Logout &raquo;</a></p>

<?php else : ?>

<p><input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="<?php echo $comment_author; ?>" size="22" tabindex="1" />
<label for="author"><small>Name <?php if ($req) _e('(required)'); ?></small></label></p>

<p><input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo $comment_author_email; ?>" size="22" tabindex="2" />
<label for="email"><small>Mail (will not be published) <?php if ($req) _e('(required)'); ?></small></label></p>

<p><input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="<?php echo $comment_author_url; ?>" size="22" tabindex="3" />
<label for="url"><small>Website</small></label></p>

<?php wp_grins(); ?>

<?php endif; ?>
<!--<p><small><strong>XHTML:</strong> You can use these tags: <?php echo allowed_tags(); ?></small></p>-->
<p><textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="100%" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea></p>

<p><input name="submit" type="submit" id="submit" tabindex="5" value="Submit Comment" />
<input type="hidden" name="comment_post_ID" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" />
</p>
<?php do_action('comment_form', $post->ID); ?>

</form></center>

<?php endif; // If registration required and not logged in ?>

<?php else : // Comments are closed ?>
<p><?php _e('Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.'); ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>

How does it turn out?

[add1cted2f1re]

same thing toya, but thanks

michelle, where is the double header?

[Mulder]

i viewed the source of your comments page.

can i have your login? or toya? either of us would be good.

but im going to assume now that either all of your layout is in the header.php file, or is in your root directory.

[Rampage]

Who is in your avatar?

[Mulder]

i feel smart now.

the problem was the single.php file. i had the same problem when i was doing monets site. how could i forget?

hopefully its fixed now.
