Hi folks,

I would like to customize my WP comment section fields.
Not the admin stuff.. I see that under settings.

I want to change where it says "Leave a Reply"
Name, Email...

Thanks!

    Toward the end it has a whole section called "Comments" - you need to edit those for customization.

    No offence, but you ask really a lot for fixes/customization.

    Why don't you get someone do all the work on Fiverr, oDesk or somewhere else?

    I mean, this is a forum about IM... not about "Help me customizing/fixing/reviewing/... my website/blog/eCommerce/forum/..."... or am I wrong?

      I have had some assistance from Fiverr.
      But I like to learn as much as I can so I don't have to keep having folks blindly do it for me. I do ask a lot of questions but I also research a lot too.

      No offence, but there are other folks who don't mind my posts and who have been so incredibly giving. In return, I have many times signed up on their email lists, followed them on social media, and purchased products and services.

      Could you just simply pass my posts up and go where you feel drawn to reply and assist?

      Thanks1

    That's not fair. Micheal is helping a lot in this forum.

    On the other hand you ask a huge number of annoyingly vague questions because you lack even basic understanding of HTML/CSS.

    Like in this present thread: you ask about "customization" without any technical details. That's plain stupid. Nobody knows what customization means for another person. I gave you the place where the CSS code is - can you do it? No. Then why ask? Go directly to your webmaster/5rr person and tell him/her what you want. If the person knows WP, no need for our "guidance" where to find the code.

    As for you wanting to learn: cool. Learn at least as much that you know what to do when I/we show you where the code is.

      Istvan - you are not a kind person.

      FYI - I do have a some basic understanding of html/css.
      With some help I have been able to create my site and have worked really hard to do so. I figured out the "comment" edit before you even replied to my post. I used firebug, found the area, went into the editor and adjusted it.

      The two of you have been the most negative energy for me on this site.

      Please just bypass my posts.

      Thanks!

    The place may vary on the theme that you are using, but try this
    Go to Themes -> editor
    Look for a file called comments.php (on the RHS of the screen)
    Click on it to edit it.
    Search of "Leave a Reply" edit and save.
