comments popup problem

The answer was quite easy. You should also read the wiki, it contains usefull answers, especially for the “problem” you’re having :
https://wiki.www.ads-software.com/CommentsPopup

Merci Romain, but if you read my post, I said that I did that and it still does not work and I have read everything in the forum and the wiki. And it still is not working…I have now maybe figure out what the problem is but don’t know how to fix it.
If you click on my comments link under the post, it points to https://over-50-and-kicking.com/index.php?p=13#comments and on other sites, I saw that it would point to .com/wp-comments-popup.php?p=13#comments and that’s why I don’t have a popup window, it opens up in the style of the index page.
Where and how can I change that?
Thanks
Lise

Does your code look like this ?
<?php comments_popup_script(); // off by default ?>

Hi Podz
Yes it is, see <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
<?php wp_get_archives('type=monthly&format=link'); ?>
<?php comments_popup_script(); // off by default ?>
<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
I copied it directly from just above the </head> on my index.php page

What does your feedback section say in the index.php?
Mine says this:
<div class="feedback">
<?php link_pages('
Pages: ', '
', 'number'); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link('Comments (0)', 'Comments (1)', 'Comments (%)'); ?>
</div>

Here is what it says:
<div class="feedback">
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
<?php comments_popup_link(__('Comments (0)'), __('Comments (1)'), __('Comments (%)')); ?>
</div>
How come it’s not the same as yours? Do you have 1.2mingus? I do but since I don’t know php, I did not touch it.
Lise

I did upgrade to 1.2 but I didn’t upgrade my index, since I had changed stuff around. I don’t think those minor differences would cause a problem tho.
Maybe there is a problem with your comments popup script? I have no idea. I don’t even know where that would be.
I did notice in your source code, that the script is not there.
Mine says this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function wpopen (macagna) {
window.open(macagna, '_blank', 'width=450,height=400,scrollbars=yes,status=yes');
}
</script>
but it comes from the script (I think) you can’t add it yourself (to my knowledge) So I think whatever is supposed to insert that into your pages maybe isn’t working? I dunno, I’ve gotten beyond my meager knowledge of how things work here.

Thanks Oriecat, and BTW, love the look of your blog ??
Now that does not fix my problem.
ANYONE Pleeeeese, how come the javascript does not show?
How come the popup link points to my index page?
How come it’s now working?
I’m sooo frustrated by this. I just want to blog.
Please Podz, anyone?
Lise

My guess is that something in index.php is wrong.
View Source on this page:
https://www.katehackett.com/wordpress/
and on yours.
You both have popups set …
I think you may need to let someone have full access to login to your blog and check through your file and compare it line by line with another. It’s either that or pasting a lot of code in here.

Podz,
I’m sending you the info through your site and I sure hope you can help me.
Thanks Lise

I’ll check my mail ??

OK I fixed the problem, which was me of course ??
Actually what I had done is follow the instructions for different directories for the wordpress files and the index file, but I’m must have done something wrong.
So anyway, I just redirected my https://over-50-and-kicking.com/index.php page to https://over-50-and-kicking.com/wordpress on my server and voila, done.
Thanks a lot all of you for your help and Podz said it was BigJibber who found what was wrong…so thanks a million.
Now I can go and ‘play’ around with the CSS LOL
Lise

Have fun! Glad you got it all sorted out. ??

I seem to be having the same problem as lise had. How do I redirect my pages? Or is there another fix?
