Well, I couldn’t resist. I went to the index.php page and looked at it some more. Figured it out !! ??

I moved the piece of code:

<?php comments_popup_link(‘Comments (0)’, ‘Comments (1)’, ‘Comments (%)’); ?>

up a few lines to just after the <h4>
deleted a |
and put in a </br> outside of the php tags

and it all seems to look and work beautifully!

Thank you all!

Hi Otto!
Thank you so much! It worked. And thank you Michael, too! The problem was that when I went into my server, and clicked on the file… I used a “Show File” option.

I didn’t realize that when I click “Edit File” an entirely different page appears. Apparently the “Show File” is some sort of synopsis of the “Edit File”. I’m learning!
Thanks again!

Otto, I have one more question, if I may ??

Now that I’ve done this, that line is broken (because there is a side column, and all four links
“Filed in Uncategorized | Comments (2) | Permalink | Edit”
don’t fit on the one line. So it now looks like this:

“Filed in Uncategorized | Read or Post Comments (2) |
Permalink | Edit “

What I’d like to do is have the “Read or Post Comments (2) all by itself on the top line, and
“Filed in Uncategorized | Permalink” on the line immediately below.

I looked at the index.php to see if I could figure it out, but it’s beyond me! ?? Thanks again for your help!

I am using the veryplaintxt theme, and it is working great.

However, the index.php file in the theme folder just had the following few words (below) in it. Nothing that seemed to relate to what I am looking for. This is ALL that was in the file:

(Continued)’); ?>
Pages: ‘, ”, ‘number’); ?>
Filed in
|
Permalink

Question: Where can I find the file that has the following words in it (that appear at the bottom of every new WordPress Blog Home Page? These are the words-

“Filed in Uncategorized | Comments (2) | Permalink | Edit”

Thanks again!
Roz

Thanks Michael,
I’ll check it out and let you know how it goes.

Ooooooooohhh! Thank you! I guess I missed that, somehow.

By the way… I’m new, but have heard that spam is becoming a big issue. Has it been a problem for you? If so, have you found a solution? and do you think installing Akismet is something that most people are satisfied with, or have you found something you thinks works better?

Thanks again,
Roz
