EDIT: I realized that the comment icon doesn't show up on single pages, but I'm still confused why the sidebar wasn't working good. I will reupload the tabbed sidebar widget so you can see the issue...

Last night the posts started not to load as they should, the sidebar was not loading fine etc. I've deleted some plugins, such as "tabbed widgets".. Now the sidebar looks fine, but when I click on the posts (single page) the comment icon is not showing up (and yes, it's activated on the theme settings).

I'm confused, the theme was worknig fine until now, but now I'm experiencing all these issues...

The comment icon has never been shown on the single pages. Tabbed widgets is not working with version 2.8+ of Wordpress. When creating this theme I added css for tabbed widgets, but it stopped working, and the author of the plugin is too busy to update it.

Thanks for the quick reply man! I think I've figured the issue... I'm using "Fun with Sidebar Tabs" which is working.

BTW, is there a way to manually add that comment icon to single pages? (if people click on the icon it jumps to the comments section) I did something similar on my other blog... look at the "jump to comments"... http://www.sl-lost.com/2009/11/06/elizabeth-mitchell-on-jimmy-kimmel-live-11052009/

Yes, you can add the comment icon to the single page by adding this code right after the h1 (inside post-title div):

<?php if (in_array('Comment Icon', $bf_meta)) { ?><div class="comment"><?php comments_popup_link('0', '1', '%'); ?></div><?php } ?>

And add this to style.css:
.post.single .post-title h1 { padding-right:58px; }

The free support does not include such customizations...but for quickies like this I sometimes help...

OK thank you so much. One more question: how can I delete the "comments" word from inside the comment icon, so it looks like the icon on the homepage? I've looked everywhere on the theme files but I don't see the solution. Thanks!

is there a comment word on the single page? Once before have I seen this, and it was caused by a plugin.

Nope, no "comment" word. Maybe it's cause by Disqus, the commenting plugin I've installed.

yes, that was the plugin that caused it...you can add this to functions.php:

remove_filter('comments_number', 'dsq_comments_number');

Hmm it gave me an error, not sure how to add that to function.php. Don't worry about it, it's not that important.
