Hello,

I have a strange problem. Here's a picture:

As you can see there are "name" and "e-mail" boxes but it's not written, where to put the name and where to put the e-mail. Do you have any idea how to fix it? Thank you.

Go style.css in theme editor and find:
Code: 
			<label for="author">: (required)</label>
			<input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="" size="22" tabindex="1" aria-required='true' />
		</p>
	
		<p>
			<label for="email">: (required)</label>
			<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="" size="22" tabindex="2" aria-required='true' />
		</p>
	
		<p>
			<label for="url">:</label>
			<input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="" size="22" tabindex="3" />
		</p>
			<p>
			<label for="comment">:</label>
			<textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="100%" rows="10" tabindex="4">
		</p>

Replace it with:


Code: 
			<label for="email">Your Email: (required)</label>
			<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="" size="22" tabindex="2" aria-required='true' />
		</p>
	
		<p>
			<label for="url">Your Website:</label>
			<input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="" size="22" tabindex="3" />
		</p>
			<p>
			<label for="comment">Your Comments:</label>
			<textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="100%" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea>
 
I don't have the code you posted above. Here are the paragraphs containing the word "email"

Code: 
textarea,
#author, 
#email, 
#url {
font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, Geneva, sans-serif;
background: #FFFFFF url(images/hatch.png) repeat;
border: 1px solid #CCCCCC;
padding: 8px 10px 8px 10px;
outline: none;
color: #666666;

Code: 
textarea:hover,
#author:hover, 
#email:hover, 
#url:hover {
-webkit-box-shadow:0 0 15px #C8C8C8; 
-moz-box-shadow: 0 0 15px #C8C8C8; 
box-shadow:0 0 15px #C8C8C8;

Only these 2. Which one should I change and how?

Check your comment.php then. If it is not listed there, keep checking on all the files listed.

Found it in comments and that's how it looks:

Code: 
<label for="author"><?php echo get_option_tree('name_field_text'); ?>: <?php if ($req) echo "(required)"; ?></label>
			<input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author); ?>" size="22" tabindex="1" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> />
		</p>
	
		<p>
			<label for="email"><?php echo get_option_tree('email_field_text'); ?>: <?php if ($req) echo "(required)"; ?></label>
			<input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author_email); ?>" size="22" tabindex="2" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> />
		</p>
	
		<p>
			<label for="url"><?php echo get_option_tree('website_field_text'); ?>:</label>
			<input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author_url); ?>" size="22" tabindex="3" />
		</p>
	<?php endif; ?>
		<p>
			<label for="comment"><?php echo get_option_tree('comment_field_text'); ?>:</label>
			<textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="100%" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea>

The code, you told me to replace it with, didn't work.

My knowledge of .CSS and PHP is too limited to continue helping you without having the theme’s files. I recommend you download a new copy of the theme from your provider and upload it. When you upload the new files it will replace the old ones and the theme will be retune to default settings, therefore you should copy any custom coding you have added. Or you can ask go to http://press75.com/ and request help.
 
Thank you, Kevin. I will probably ask the dev of the theme how to fix it.

Try replacing with this code :
Code: 
<label for="author">Author: <?php if ($req) echo "(required)"; ?></label>
         <input type="text" name="author" id="author" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author); ?>" size="22" tabindex="1" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> />
      </p>
   
      <p>
         <label for="email">Email: <?php if ($req) echo "(required)"; ?></label>
         <input type="text" name="email" id="email" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author_email); ?>" size="22" tabindex="2" <?php if ($req) echo "aria-required='true'"; ?> />
      </p>
   
      <p>
         <label for="url">URL:</label>
         <input type="text" name="url" id="url" value="<?php echo esc_attr($comment_author_url); ?>" size="22" tabindex="3" />
      </p>
   <?php endif; ?>
      <p>
         <label for="comment">Comment:</label>
         <textarea name="comment" id="comment" cols="100%" rows="10" tabindex="4"></textarea>

Then you are editing the wrong file.... Look in all files inside the currrent theme folder for matching code....

No. I am afraid I am not that good with installing themes and might mess something up.
