Hi, I want to adjust the padding of comment section border just like this. Please assist.

Hi there,

Your site is under maintenance mode so I can't see.

We won't be able to provide a full customization solution like this but I'll try my best to point you in the right direction.

Thanks for your understanding.

Hi Leo,
Its live now. Please assist.

I removed the password. Please check again.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

No worries :)

Looks like you've achieved most of your goals, good job!

You can change the meta color at customizer > colors > Content > Entry meta text & Entry meta links.

If you only want to change the meta in comment area, try this CSS:

.comment-meta .entry-meta.comment-metadata * {
    color: #987662;
}

To move the avatar to the left, try this CSS:

.comment ul.children .avatar {
    margin-left: -75px;
}

Thank you so much, Ying.
This is just moving the avatar to the right while the metadata stays at the same place. I also want to move the metadata along with it.
Moreover, I want to move the parent comment avatar to the left along with the metadata as well.
I checked the mobile version and I found the layout quite disturbed.
Please guide.

Try this CSS:

.comment .comment-meta {
    margin-left: -75px;
}

instead of this:

.comment ul.children .avatar {
    margin-left: -75px;
}

Let me know :)

Perfect! Thanks Ying.
There's some left padding needs to be done. I want comment text, reply button and sub-comment boxes to be aligned with metadata.
Also top padding need to be fixed for dashed border.
Please guide further.

Hi there,

You can try this CSS:

.comment-content {
    margin-left: -10px;
}

And adjust the value to your preferred alignment. (-10px seems to align it w/ metadata)

Thanks Elvin.
And how can I add top padding in pink dashed border comment box?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

If it's for the comment list container, you can try this CSS:

ol.comment-list {
    padding-top: 30px;
}

If it's for the first comment, try this:

ol.comment-list li:first-child {
    padding-top: 30px;
}

If it's for all comments, try this:

ol.comment-list li {
    padding-top: 30px;
}

Thanks, Elvin! It's done.

Nice one. No problem. :D
