   Hi,

   I have noticed and a few have asked me about, but in my blog page the comment bubble with the number of comments that links to the post page is missing when viewed with Opera. The bubble is there but empty and no link. Is this an Opera error or a problem with the page?

   It is fine in firefox

   Thanks

   Hello williamsguitars,

   I think it is a cufon issue. Open up /wp-content/themes/awake/lib/includes/template-blog.php and on lines 60 - 62 you should see this,

   <h2 class="blog_header">
   	<a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   	<span class="comment_bubble"><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></span>
   </h2>

   Go ahead and change it like this,

   <h2 class="blog_header">
   	<a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link: <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
   	<span class="comment_bubble" style = 'position: relative; top: -30px;'><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></span>

   Let us know if that works for you.

   That just about does Elliott but, the count is no longer in the middle of the bubble, its center top. I also changed rel top to -40px as the bubble was too low.

   Should the </h2> at the end still be present or should I delete it?

   Thankyou

   Hi,

   In the code that Elliot provided, you can see how he moved the "h2" tag from the end of it, to the end of the "a" tag.

   Ok Ruderic thanks,

   I have removed the h2. Do you know how I can get the comment count back into the middle of the bubble?

   Thanks

   The H2 is for your blog title, unless you do not want it to converted with cufon it would be best to leave it in place.

   You can move the number inside the comment bubble around by placing these lines in your style.css file,

   .comment_bubble a {
       top: 4px;
       position: relative;
   }

   Let us know if that works for you williamsguitars.
