  1. 1. How can I edit the footer?

    2. I would like to replace the text No comments, 1 comment, 2 comments, etc. with something a little more descriptive for my readers (who are very new to blogs and computers in general). I would change it to something like 'click here to comment' or 'Read 2 comments here' or 'there are no comments, yet, click here to add yours.'

    Is there a way to do this?

    Thanks,

    Dan

  2. Whenever editing the way posts look throughout your site, the following files need to be edited: index.php (front page) search.php (search results) archive.php (all archive pages, category pages, etc) and single.php (the way stuff looks when you actually click a post).

    Now, you are looking for the following:

    <p class="tagged"><span class="add_comment"><?php comments_popup_link('&rarr; no comments', '&rarr; 1 comment', '&rarr; % comments'); ?></span> ....

    This is how most wordpress stuff works, you're setting values for what happens if there are no comments, one comment, and multiple comments.

    Just add "click here to comment" instead of "no comments" "1 comment" to "read 1 comment here" and "% commments" to "read % comments here"... that should do it.. just make sure you change that in all the files mentioned above.
