There we go. Now there’s a special style for the first comment on the page which doesn’t have the ‘border-top‘ element set. It’s a little hackish, but it works.

I’m still not entirely happy with the visual layout — I don’t like the double-dashed line effect that happens between the start of the comments section and the first comment. It might be a pain in the ass to fix that, though, so maybe I’ll just live with it.

I’ll fiddle a bit with CSS tricks next time I have a long compile.

Looks pretty snazz.

Also, reply-to-reply. How weird does the indent look?

Another comment-threading test. I think this thing might actually work.

Huh.

Hmmm. Test?

Yeah, I keep wishing there was a “respond to this comment” link.

There’s probably a way to make that happen; next time I get sufficiently motivated I’ll dig into it.

It appears to be very easy to make simple things happen in this system — the ‘Recent Comments’ sidebar item involved installing a plugin and then adding like one line of code to index.php.

Believe me, I appreciate the food weblog. I just — eee! I’ve wanted one so long. I kind of wish there was a good way to respond to comments, but other than that, I’m just delighted.

And I’m glad you are having a chance to play with things.
