[personal profile] judas_river posting in [community profile] style_system
Hello! Some years ago, I sort of muddled my way through porting my style over from LiveJournal. However, there were a few minor issues that I couldn't seem to figure out on my own, so I posted here awhile back. I received some wonderful help and was able to resolve all but one of the problems! Now I've returned in hopes of finding a way to fix that last one.


My layout: I'm using the Component layout from LJ, which I more or less just copied over and worked my way through the errors until it finally compiled. I believe my version over here is labeled LiveJournal S2 Core, v1. I realize that this is an old style and not native to DW, but I'd prefer to troubleshoot it rather than try and adapt another style to my needs. I've put the code I'm using in a Pastebin here.

My theme: I'm using a custom theme called Shades of Brown, which includes an added custom header bar and various other minor customizations. The code for this is in a Pastebin here.

Custom CSS: On DW's basic Customize Journal page, under Custom CSS the box for "Use layout's stylesheet(s)" is checked. I have nothing in the text box labeled Custom Stylesheet and I'm not using a custom external stylesheet. All of my customizing so far has either been done through the wizard or through my theme layer.


Problem: Adding direct entry links to my journal. When I load my journal and look at my entries, there's a link at the bottom of each one that says "Leave a comment". If there are comments on an entry, there will also be a link to the left of that which says "[X] comments". I would really like to also always have a link in this area that just links directly to that entry. Ideally something like [community profile] style_system itself has ("Link" and "Reply" if there are no comments, "Link" "[X] comments" and "Reply" if there are some).


If you got all the way through that, thank you for taking the time to read! Any help with this would be so deeply appreciated. What little I know about coding layouts is self-taught and spotty at best, so any and all explanations to accompany any help offered would be especially awesome, too. Thanks so much!
