[Plugin: Spectacu.la Discussion] Comment box border missing in IE and other bugs

Extremely odd, but all seems to be working now. I didn’t change anything to any codes or settings though.

The only thing I did was to log in (as admin) in each browser and then log out. After this, the styles were fine.

The bug with the gravatar still exists though.

One more odd thing…the label above the comment form, which used to be something like “Leave a Comment” is now missing and I can’t figure out where to put it back in.

Thanks,

Sounds like your style issues were associated with cached CSS. I thought I’d done enough to force a flush of the cache, obviously not.

The gravatar bug is a little odd, I’ll take a look at that. It didn’t come up in my own local testing so when I find the cause I’ll get a 2.0.1 out.

I chose to remove the “Leave a comment” title as it seemed mostly superfluous. If you want to add it back in you’ll find a file called functions.php in the plug-in’s folder under includes and in there you’ll find a function called spec_comments_form, you’ll likely want to add it around line 160. However, if you’re willing to wait for the next version I’ll add another option to the options page that’ll let you define a title for the top of that box.

I’ve updated this plug-in to 2.0.1.
You’ll now have the option of setting a title for the form from the ‘spectacu.la discussion’ settings page and also the option of turning off the comment form avatar.

I couldn’t recreate the avatar issue you have but I suspect it’s down to a plug-in as your avatars are different sizes to the sizes I request within the comment loop. That’s not a problem as I built this to respect whatever avatar sizes turn up, it would seem that something in there is not being reset correctly so we’re left with the avatar from the last user. So to get around this just turn off the comment avatar with the new option.
