What you need is a custom Walker. You will probably use wp_list_comments() somewhere in your comments.php template file. There you can pass a walker parameter in the argument array to tell WordPress you want to style the list on your own. This requires you to extend the Walker class. The following resources should give you … Read more

This code does the job with a filter. Doesn’t care what the comment says the author’s name is. Nothing particularly tricky about it. Should be self-explanatory. add_filter(‘get_comment_author’, ‘wpse31694_comment_author_display_name’); function wpse31694_comment_author_display_name($author) { global $comment; if (!empty($comment->user_id)){ $user=get_userdata($comment->user_id); $author=$user->display_name; } return $author; }
I had to do accomplish something similar with an old client where they wanted a custom comment type to allow them to post editorial comments in the admin while a post is going through the editorial phase, but should not be visible on the front end. Since there are no custom comment types available in … Read more
Add this to your functions.php. I’m not sure if this does any pre-processing though. add_filter(‘comment_text’, ‘wp_filter_nohtml_kses’);

From the look at code WP_Comment_Query class, used internally by get_comments() allows orderby argument to be set to ‘meta_key’ string to sort by key in argument of same meta_key name.
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
Not really a WPSE question but I was bored. For starters there is no .dsq-full-comment class, that I could find anyway, on the page you linked to. However if you wanted the entire comments block to look all pretty and white like the rest of you site put this on in your themes custom.css file: … Read more
The default author role does not have the moderate_comments capabilities so you need to add that capability to the author role, so add this to your plugin: function add_theme_caps() { $role = get_role( ‘author’ ); // gets the author role $role->add_cap( ‘moderate_comments’ ); // would allow the author to moderate comments } add_action( ‘admin_init’, ‘add_theme_caps’);
