[SOLVED]Giving the comments a left margin
 

how can I get the comments area to bump over 45px to the right? I was able to do it for the titles and the field, but I've tried everything I could think of and stuff that I found on this forum and the comments stubbornly refuse to move.

TIA

try this
1) go to ATO->Style & configure COMMENTS->Avatar Style and change the line
margin:0 8px 1px 45px;
to
margin:0 8px 1px 5px;

2) add the following to CSS Inserts

Thanks so much! We are almost there. I still have one line that extends all the way to the left of my layout width. In FF and Safari, it's the line on top of the first comment. And in IE, the whole first comment did not shift to the right.

here is how I figure out these issues.
1) view your page
2) view the source of the page (it's a good idea to go to ATO->Configure CSS & JS and set 'CSS: Compress?' to 'NO' - i have a script that will uncompress the CSS)
3) copy the source
4) paste it into a test document and save it with a name like 'mytest.html'
5) open that document in your browser

You can now edit the page source, deleting things, adding things etc and refresing the page in your browser till you figure out what CSS you need to change. Then you can add that CSS to the CSS Inserts to fix your issue

Thank you so much. That will definitely come in handy for future trouble shooting.
