As the facebook functionality is part of your application, it belongs into a plugin. You have one large benefit from moving stuff into plugins: If you exchange your … Read more
The comment count in your theme is wrapped in <span class=”comments-link”>…</span>, so you can set a CSS rule in your CSS file like: .comments-link { //here your rules } For future questions, please, note that questions about pure CSS, not specific to WordPress, can be more suitable for other sites, may stackoverflow.
The role needs “edit_post” capability to edit comments (the reason beeing that comments are posts for wordpress) –> do your authors have “edit_post” capability? this enables the role to edit posts also, which might not be desired.

The Codex makes it seem like you can query for a specific comment by ID, as does the GenerateWP query generator, but I couldn’t get it to work with either of those examples. Even looking through the WP_Comment_Query:query() code makes it clear that you should be able to pass the ID in the parameters. That … Read more
Is there a nice little filter that someone knows about where I can hook into notifications and send the notification to each / every administrator? There is : comment_post Runs just after a comment is saved in the database. Action function arguments: comment ID, approval status (“spam”, or 0/1 for disapproved/approved). http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference#Comment.2C_Ping.2C_and_Trackback_Actions And user_register which… … Read more

The comment form is relying on that object, that you override with your $queryPosts->the_post() call. Note that the extract() isn’t recommended, check this answer by @toscho, for example. Removing comments To remove the comment … Read more
The term you need to search for is “Pingbacks” (and maybe “Trackbacks”, but the former is better as it is less vulnerable to spam abuse). It is an XML-RPC request. You can find the specification here. Looking at github there seem to be some bare metal PHP implementations, but as I haven’t used any of … Read more
