    @AdiDogs, add this code (in .comment-bubble css class) for font color,
    color:gray !important;
    and for on mouse over color change use this,
    ..comment-bubble a:hover{color:red;}, or something like this :)

    Nice tutorial. I'll try it to my blog and let you know the feed back soon. Thanks for everything.
  4. Sandrine June 30, 2010 at 11:36 AM
    Hi, great tutorial! It worked beautifully on my blog, I'd like to add "comments" in the bubble, under the number. I've tried different things but I can't achieve that, do you know how to add a word in the bubble? Thank you very much for your attention and all your tutorials.
  5. Blogger How To July 1, 2010 at 6:57 AM
    @ Sandrine: First of all if you will try to add add "comments" in the bubble, under the number it looks bad, but to show text "comments" beneath the bubble your code should look like this:

    <a class='comment-bubble' expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick'><data:post.numComments/><br/><span style='font-size:10px'>comments</span></a>

    your bubble comments would be display same as i have in my blog :)

    Thank you for this useful tutorial! Is it possible to remove the hover effect (on both title and comments bubble) wich appears while you move your mouse in the white space between the post title and the bubble? I mean, I'd like to see the hover effect only when I move the mouse right on title/bubble's text.
  7. Piyush - Admin @ Blogger How To Tips July 17, 2010 at 11:24 PM
    @jessica, Go to your template Edit HTML section and find this code

    .post h3 a, .post h3 a:visited, .post h3 strong {
    color:#B3B3B3;
    display:block;
    font-weight:normal;
    text-decoration:none;
    }

    Remove bold text from code and done :)

    How can I add a "click to comment" hover text over the comment bubble in the post title?
  22. Piyush - Admin @ Blogger How To Tips August 19, 2010 at 11:34 PM
    @Nancy, You can add onmouseover and onmouseout javascript code and modify comment bubble hover text.

    Below is my comment bubble code:

    <a class='comment-bubble' expr:href='data:post.addCommentUrl' expr:onclick='data:post.addCommentOnclick'><data:post.numComments/><br/><span onmouseout='javascript:this.innerHTML=&quot;Comments&quot;' onmouseover='javascript:this.innerHTML=&quot;Add New&quot;' style='font-size:10px'>comments</span></a>

    Hope you would like this. Let me know if you need more information.

    Nice tut! i have a question though, how do i remove the comment count at the bottom of the post? when i configure blog post and uncheck it, the bubble disappears as well. oh and is there a way to like vertically align the text on the bubble? thanks!
  29. Piyush - Admin @ Blogger How To Tips October 23, 2010 at 12:51 AM
    @nesta, to remove that comments after post, can you give me admin rights?. See the details. http://bloggerhowtotips.blogspot.com/p/help-desk-for-bloggers-ask-questions.html. and regarding that horizontal align text i think you can do it, just play with css.
  30. Piyush - Admin @ Blogger How To Tips October 24, 2010 at 1:47 PM
    @nesta, your comment hyperlink is removed from bottom of the post, you can check that, Enjoy :)
