How d’you change the wording for comment tags? (So that instead of being called comments, they’re called blamanges, or something more sensible). I know it’s something in the styles section, but I’m fucked if I can make it work. Can anyone with munged comment names mail me (or leave a comment with) the code they use, so’s I can adapt it for my own nefarious purposes. Ta.
I assume you mean…
[lj-cut text=”Blamanges”]
Except the square brackets should be pointy.
Nah, I know how lj-cut works. I mean the bit of the style code for your journal that governs the link text that reads (for example) “3 comments | Post a comment” at the bottom of a post.
Go to Modify Journal…
Find the bit near the bottom that says ‘overrides’ and type the following (or something approximating it):
FRIENDS_TALK_LINKS=><div class="right">(%%readlink%%<a href="%%urlpost%%">say whatever you want</a&mt;)</div>
FRIENDS_TALK_READLINK=><a href="%%urlread%%">%%messagecount%% stuff%%mc-plural-s%%</a> |
Replacing ‘stuff’ with whatever you want it to say

Doesn’t seem to want to work, dammit.
Re: Go to Modify Journal…
One of the following should:
FRIENDS_TALK_LINKS=><div class="right">(%%readlink%%<a href="%%urlpost%%">add stuff</a>)</div>FRIENDS_TALK_READLINK=><a href="%%urlread%%">%%messagecount%% stuff%%mc-plural-s%%</a> |
LASTN_TALK_READLINK=><a href="%%urlread%%">%%messagecount%% stuff%%mc-plural-s%%</a> |
LASTN_TALK_LINKS=><div class="right">(%%readlink%%<a href="%%urlpost%%">add stuff</a>)</div>

Magic. Cheers.
Well, my HTML has gone down the pan. Seems that you got it working anyway….
<support-volunteer>Just for future reference, comments links are style specific, so if you switch to generator, the one’s you’re now using will look odd (and be broken HTML). See How to I change what my comments links say? for the overrides for each style.</support-volunteer>
cool. Of course, I will have try this out on my soon now :)
