Popup Comments

To change the look of the Popup Comments window in WordPress version 1.2.1 Mingus, make the following change to the template-functions-comment.php on line 50:

function comments_popup_script($width=400, $height=400, 
$file='wp-comments-popup.php')

You can also change Line 81 of wp-comments-popup.php to alter the textarea size for people entering comments.

More

Just above the editing window where you type your entries are a series of small boxes. One of them has the word "more" in it.

Click that and the  tag will be inserted into your text. It is at that point that your text will stop when the main index page is viewed. Make sure that there are no blank lines before or after the tag.

More information on how to use the More quicktag can be found at the_content() and WordPress:Customizing the Read More.
