Expanding the allowed HTML tags in comments?
The tags that are allowed in comments are stored in the $allowedtags global variable. You can try adding elements to that list (the key is the tag name, the value is an array of allowed attributes). If you have problems with the timing you can play with the CUSTOM_TAGS global variable.
Display latest comments on page with pagination

How to disable empty tags in comment_text()
If you look in wp-includes/default-filters.php you’ll see all of the functions each comment is run through before it’s output.

The examples below use the Twenty Sixteen theme: In comments.php: // First, get the current … Read more
Comment filtering (search)
You create your own comments_template, it can be a duplicate function of the default one, the only changes are the database queries anyway. But you need your own function as WP doesn’t help you with filters here. SO, name it my_comments_template(): $filter = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST[‘comment-filter’]); if(!empty($filter)) $filter = “AND (comment_content LIKE ‘%%{$filter}%%’ OR comment_author LIKE ‘%%{$filter}%%’)”; … Read more
