Styling Tip: Moving the Comment Form to the Top
We’ve received a lot of requests recently to move the comment form to the top of the comment section rather than having it at the bottom. We prefer having the comment form at the bottom so your visitors have a chance to catch-up on the debate before posting their comment – that helps cut down on duplicate comments and encourages interaction. But it’s your site and we’re all about customization!
To make it happen, you need to add the following CSS to your Custom CSS page in your IntenseDebate account:
#idc-container-parent #idc-container {
position: relative;
padding-top: 320px;
}#idc-container-parent #idc-container #IDCommentsNewThreadCover {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
