Ended up using jQuery to solve this. The form moves around using javascript anyways so it doesn’t break anything for users with js turned off. //when reply button is clicked hide it $(“.comment-reply-link”).click( function() { $(this).hide(); }); //when cancel button is clicked reshow reply button $(“#cancel-comment-reply-link”).click( function() { $(“.comment-reply-link”).show(); });
Some loose implementation of where I would start. The hooks ‘comment_form_default_fields’, ‘comment_form_defaults’, and the ‘comment_form_{location}’ hooks look promising. Line 1569 of comment-template.php is doing the fields, and line 1575 is doing the main field, you might be able to “trick” wordpress into putting the comment field up top…but all that seems like it would take … Read more
Edit your comments.php template and add in <ol class=”commentlist”> <?php wp_list_comments(); ?> </ol> This should display comments, pingbacks and trackbacks. See the Codex for wp_list_comments() for help on how to style and separate or to display just comments.
You have commenting turned off for logged-out users. To change this setting, visit the Settings > Discussion page in your WordPress admin and uncheck the Users must be registered and logged in to comment box. Remember to update the setting by clicking the Save Changes button.
You can store these values in cookies and fill them when you are creating form inputs. So in save_comment_meta_data add something like this: $commenter_data = array( ‘phone’ => $phone, … ); setcookie(‘commenter_data’, serialize($commenter_data), time()+1209600, COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN, false); And then when you’re creating form: $commenter_data = isset($_COOKIE[‘commenter_data’]) ? unserialize($_COOKIE[‘commenter_data]) : array(); echo ‘<p class=”comment-form-title”>’. ‘<label for=”phone”>’ … Read more
Yor code is totally wrong here. Your idea here is not bad. If you have a look at the default comment_form, you will see $fields consist of the following, author, email and URL. That is why your code doesn’t work, as comment_notes_before aren’t in the $field field. I personally think here that the proper way … Read more
First function works fine, because comment form is displayed just after post. So it’s the same request and global variable post still contains current post. On the other hand, comment_post is run in another request – a POST request containing the newly added comment. So there is no global post object, because no post should … Read more
This is possible using the comment_post action, and the GFAPI class which handles entries in WordPress. What you need to first is add using comment_form_default_fields a field which is a checkbox. function add_to_email_list_field($fields) { $fields[‘add-to-email’] = ‘<p class=”comment-form-public”> <input id=”addtoemail” name=”addtoemail” type=”checkbox” /> <label for=”addtoemail”> Check this box to add yourself to our email list. … Read more
If you have already found the filter inside the comment_form function, you are quite close. There is a filter called comment_form_default_fields which allows you to add extra input fields to the array of fields, which normally holds name, mail address and url. You use it like this (in your theme’s functions.php): add_filter (‘comment_form_default_fields’,’wpse270550_add_field’); function wpse270550_add_field … Read more
Use this function rather than comment_form() function validate_comment_form(){ ob_start(); comment_form(); echo str_replace(‘<form’,'<form attribute=”value” ‘,ob_get_clean()); }
