Since Thesis needs to open a separate pop-up window to display the Canvas, here’s how to make sure it can do that in the most modern browsers:

Firefox

If pop-ups are blocked in Firefox when you open the Skin Editor and Thesis attempts to launch the Canvas, then you should see a yellow alert bar across the top of your screen which says “Firefox prevented this site from opening a pop-up window.” with a Preferences (Options on Windows) button on the right—click that button, and then select “Allow pop-ups for [yoursite]“.

Then refresh the Skin Editor window (Ctrl-R on Windows, CMD-R on Mac), and Thesis should be able to successfully launch the Canvas pop-up window this time.

Chrome

If pop-ups are blocked in Chrome when you open the Skin Editor and Thesis attempts to launch the Canvas, then you should see a “Pop-ups blocked” alert message within the URL address bar—simply click on that message, and then select “Always allow pop ups from [yoursite]“.

Then refresh the Skin Editor window (Ctrl-R on Windows, CMD-R on Mac), and Thesis should be able to successfully launch the Canvas pop-up window this time.

Safari

Safari does not offer the ability to control pop-ups on a per-site basis — they’re either ALL blocked, or ALL allowed. To allow all pop-ups:

1. Go to Safari > Preferences.
2. Click the Security icon/tab.
3. Ensure that the “Block Pop-Up Windows” option is NOT checked.
4. Close the opened dialog box(es).

Internet Explorer 9

If pop-ups are blocked in IE9 when you open the Skin Editor and Thesis attempts to launch the Canvas, then you should see an alert bar across the bottom of your screen which says “Internet Explorer blocked a pop-up from [yoursite]” with an Options for this site button on the right — click that button, and then select “Always allow”.

Then refresh the Skin Editor window (Ctrl-R on Windows, CMD-R on Mac), and Thesis should be able to successfully launch the Canvas pop-up window this time.

1. Make sure you’ve already created the Custom Template that you plan to use.

(If you’ve not yet created the Category, then use the fields within the Add New Category section on the left side of your screen to do so, in conjunction with the remaining steps below.)
3. Locate the Custom Template option, and then choose the name of your previously created Custom Template from the dropdown menu:

4. Click Update (or Add New Category, if this is a Category you’re just now creating) to preserve the change.
5. Voila, you’re done!

To style these links, add a new CSS Package, specifying ul#comment_nav li a for the CSS Selector.

If you want to target the previous and next links independently for styling, you can also utilize their respective individual classes: li.previous_comments and li.next_comments.

1. Make sure you’ve already created the Custom Template that you plan to use.
2. Go to Pages > All Pages, and click the title of the Page for which you wish to assign a custom template. (If you’ve not yet created the Page, then click Add New instead.)

• Create a Skin backup to preserve your current Skin’s data.
• Unzip the downloaded Skin Mod file, and then open the folder that results after unzipping.
• The folder should contain at least one .txt file, which contains the data for the Skin Mod. (If there are multiple .txt files, identify which one you plan to install.)
• Follow the instructions for importing Skin data to load the .txt file (and thus, the Skin Mod) into the Skin Editor.
