Apparently the comments system was broken by the new theme I activated last week. I’m been using the current theme Inbw for a while now, and while I still like its clean, straightforward look, I understand that it doesn’t render well at all at screen widths of less than 1280 pixels. On really wide screens, it stretches out the site so much that it can be hard to read.

So I’ve been looking for a clean, simple theme with a fixed-width and settled on Light. But I had no idea that activating it would disable comments so I’ve reactivated the old theme for now. Looks like I still have a great deal of work cut out for me if I’m to figure out how to get it working right.

EDIT: Well, it looks like I’ve been able to fix it, though I’m still not sure what the problem was. All I did was redownload the theme, going to the site of the theme’s maker, instead of WordPress, and install that version.
