LJ Code

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/26/2003, 9:10 pm

I am trying to change the comments, and then the colors that are purple around it

There must be some code somewhere that I can't find. I found the comment code, butI don't understand it.

My friends page is on crack

You just find the comment code and copy and paste that above the your other override .. then change the links to what you want them to say ..

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/26/2003, 9:28 pm

But you can only have one override, and it never shows you where in the override to put it. Also, there are THREE choices there, and I have no idea what they mean. Plus, my friends page is not the same as mine! I suck.

You can have one global override which is that really long one I gave you and then you're comments one which is a completely separate overrride .. so it can work .. mine does .. what style are you using?

k, so this is your comments code:

LASTN_TALK_READLINK<=
<a href="%%urlread%%"><b>%%messagecount%% thought%%mc-plural-s%%</b></a>|
<=LASTN_TALK_READLINK
LASTN_TALK_LINKS<=
<tr>
<td align="right" colspan="2" width="100%" bgcolor="%%color:weak_back%%" class="comments">
%%readlink%%<a href="%%urlpost%%">share your thoughts</a>
</td>
</tr>
<=LASTN_TALK_LINKS

Where it says thought, change that to what you want it to say instead and then same thing with where it says share your thoughts, then leave everything else the same, then copy and paste that above your other override .. and leave a space between the two separate overrides

Ok, I posted this at the bottom, w/a space, after the override:

LASTN_TALK_READLINK<=
%%messagecount%%laid pencil to porous paper%%mc-plural-s%%|
<=LASTN_TALK_READLINK
LASTN_TALK_LINKS<=
<tr>
<td align="right" colspan="2" width="100%" bgcolor="%%color:weak_back%%" class="comments">
%%readlink%%lay your pencil to the porous paper
</td>
</tr>
<=LASTN_TALK_LINKS

but the links don't work.

I dunno .. it's harder to describe how to do it

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/26/2003, 10:16 pm

Thanks for trying. I am too frustrated to do this anymore.

Joey · Post by **Joey** » 9/26/2003, 10:20 pm

ohh I just checked your page out .. it's working .. but you just can't click on them .. that's just plain weird ..

what did you do?

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/26/2003, 10:37 pm

I don't know! That really is strange. I guess I will play with it tomorrow.

your text for the "post comment" and "read comment" dont have links on them.

LASTN_TALK_READLINK<=
[a href="%%urlread%%"]%%messagecount%% laid pencil to porous paper%%mc-plural-s%%[/a]|
<=LASTN_TALK_READLINK
LASTN_TALK_LINKS<=
<tr>
<td align="right" colspan="2" width="100%" bgcolor="%%color:weak_back%%" class="comments">
%%readlink%%[a href="%%urlread%%"]lay your pencil to the porous paper[/a]
</td>
</tr>
<=LASTN_TALK_LINKS

the bold is what you should add. just replace the [] with <>

Thank you! You rock.

I only have two more questions. How do I change the background of the box to transparent? And how do I change that damn purple!

Thank you for helping me, I seriously am retarded.

i have a blurty and I like that, but it just seems that if you have an online journal.. lives the one.. I just dont know anyone with codes.. if you are willing.... id much like one.. i update! i dont just let it sit and go to waste..

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/27/2003, 12:29 pm

Yeah, I shouldn't have given my code to my friend, she never uses it. Bah.

Henrietta · Post by **Henrietta** » 9/27/2003, 2:34 pm

Muwhahaha, I got it the way I want except for ONE thing.

The only thing bugging me now is the link!

Post by **saman** » 9/27/2003, 3:20 pm

the purple color of the comments link, eh? if you're on the old S1 system, go modify journal and under color themes, click on custom colors, and where it's got the color codes and stuff, saying "page background", "page text", "page link" etc, just type in the link color you want in "page link". if you haven't already gotten stuff in that part, like "page background" and stuff, make sure those values correspond with what you've already got, or else it's going to over-write what you've got.

hope that helps

EDIT: nevermind, you got it.
