How to add a “policy text” just before the comments? [closed]

Question

Hi @Emerson:

Do you want before the list of comments or before the comment form (I assume the latter?)

If yes, and I’m assuming you are either using the TwentyTen theme or a theme that uses the new comment_form() function from WordPress 3.0.0? If so it’s as simple as using the 'comment_form_before' hook. Here’s an example you can place in your theme’s functions.php file:

do_action('comment_form_before','my_comment_form_before');
function my_comment_form_before() {

}
