I'm dying, hoping and praying that someone can help me with this issue.

I've attempted to implement Cforms to replace WP comment functionality. I have followed the tutorials/post instructions and replaced or commented out the <form> to </form> code.

It seems the form is correctly being implemented (i think), yet I'm experiencing a formatting issue. The form renders way off to the right for whatever reason.

See here: http://www.manaliandterry.com/?p=165

What could be the issue? Is it CSS issue? I've looked high and low to no avail.

Praying my hopes are lifted with your benevolent reply!

==========Here is the modified code for my Comments.php=========

if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) {  // and it doesn't match the cookie
?>

*I think* it is quite simple: your global CSS has:

.com-box { float:left; …

 the cform block is not floated, hence it appears next to the comment DIVs.

try (Styling tab > CSS editor):

Oliver -

Sorry to bother you one last time…for what is probably a basic question. I'm unsure what to put for the "Parent Comment Container" in the global setting sections in the Cforms Admin Panel.

Looking at the code above…would it be "comments-template"?

I beleive I have not inputted it correctly, leading to an issue with the comments post form. After submitting the form does nothing, and the page has to be refreshed to see the comment. I beleive the AJAX functionality would post the comment and it would be immediately viewable.

Can you please advise?

Thank you!
