I loaded this template. And do like it, but when someone leaves a comment the comment bubble says “1 comments” rather than just 1 (as shown in the preview). I had to go in and resize the txt so that the comment txt wouldn’t overlap the title.
Kelli:
Go to Layout/Page Elements/ Configure Blog Posts and delete the word “comments”.
Claudia: Thanks
No wonder you`re such a big help 
Hi,
I have downloaded your template and i love it there are just a few things that are bugging me i don’t like the subscribe thing on the right hand corner can i get rid of this and also is there a way of removing the home, RSS, edit list as i don’t use these and also when i click the edit link it doesn’t take me anywhere…..
also can i remove the comments with arrow and latest post with arrow ????
thanks
Amy: 1. To remove navigation links(Home, Posts RSS…)
Goto: EDIT HTML page, using CTRL+F, find “#nav {”
The browser will highlight:
#nav {
}
Replace the above code with:
#nav {
display: none;
}
2. To Remove the Subscribe widget, again in EDIT HTML page, find “.subscribe {”
Browser will highlight:
.subscribe {
display: block;
height: 0;
margin-left: 17px;
text-indent: -9999px;
padding-top: 73px;
width: 247px;
overflow: hidden;
background: url(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_k_DnmK4oz2Q/S2tgoD_C0QI/AAAAAAAAAsA/eRKAXx_3cT4/s1600/subscribe.jpg) no-repeat top left;
}
Replace the above code with:
.subscribe {
display: block;
height: 0;
margin-left: 17px;
text-indent: -9999px;
padding-top: 73px;
width: 247px;
overflow: hidden;
background: url(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_k_DnmK4oz2Q/S2tgoD_C0QI/AAAAAAAAAsA/eRKAXx_3cT4/s1600/subscribe.jpg) no-repeat top left;
display: none;
}
3. Since the template uses image background, so it`s not possible to remove Latest Post and Comments as it is the part of background image.
Thanks for asking

I just added this template to my blog, and I have a couple questions.
When you click the subscribe link, it just brings you to a page with my html code, so how is someone supposed to subscribe to my blog?
And the posts rss and comments rss just pull up more html codes too. I am new to the whole blogger thing, but I can figure a little bit of the html codes out. I was just curious the purpose of the links? I dont see why any of the ppl who read my blog need them, so do I need them there?
Thank you in advance, I hope my questions make a some sense
How add page numbers navigation?
It’s SO big problem to me….
What can I do about my missing “Newer Posts” and “Older Posts” links? I’ve tried some tutorials that haven’t worked.
All Users of Scruffy template: A few days ago, most of the new templates had this problem that the Page Navigation disappeared from the templates at my blog and the Older and Newer posts page numbers disappeared.
I’m deeply sorry for this problem and I apologize for a very late reply.
Here`s what you need to do. Believe me it’s really simple to fix this:
Goto EDIT HTML page
Using CTRL+F
Find this link http://evo13.googlecode.com/files/nav-12.js
Replace the above link with this link >> http://all-in-one-blogger-widget.googlecode.com/files/paginator3000.js
Save and click View Blog.
I am very sorry for the problem. Files in Google Code hosting was deleted by someone.
Maxine: You would need to provide feeds properly through the Feedburner site. http://www.feedburner.com
The links Posts RSS Comments RSS Home are links useful for static pages of your blog like The About me page, Contact Page, etc
The links are set for the DEMO purposes only.
You can learn how to set the Feeds and link lists(menu bars) by reading the Btemplates Blog and FAQs page
Thanks
Same here…….. few problems altho beautiful template.
1)it bugs me to not have the “older posts” and “newer posts” buttons at the bottom of the page
2) After comments are moderated, they do not appear in the comment bubble. The zero still remains in the bubble. Comments lost.
How to solve this problem??
Adeline:
Regarding the 1st point, there is not a bug. The problem is that the author who made this template used a script to paginate your blog instead showing the “older” and “newer” posts links. Maybe you should try to remove that script.
Now regarding the 2nd point, I think you can solve the problem by going to Settings/Comments and trying to change some options.
Hi Claudia
Paginate? as in page numbers appear at the bottom of the page? no…i don’t even have that.
I’ve tried modifying the settings for comments so many times….still can’t seem to “keep” comments…
OH….and i’m html illiterate…..how do i remove that script you were talking about? i know ctrl + f but what do i look for?

Thanks Claudia! You’re a GENIUS!!! Thanks for taking that step to help me out. Really appreciate it.
Adeline, Larissa, Stilinga: Yes you can follow instructions at my blog for fixing the template’s page navigation slider bar (alternative to Older Posts, Newer Posts link) for the time being.
Thank you
