$comments, or $wp_query->comments, is initialized by comments_template(), which you call in your template file when you want to load the comment sub-template file. So at the time of template_redirect it is not yet initialized. As Chris said, you should call get_comments() and pass it the post_id of your current post. If you’re doing AJAX calls, … Read more
From what i understand, you want to change the post’s modification time whenever a comment is left on your post. For this, you need to hook into the wp_insert_comment hook and update the post’s date manually: add_action(‘wp_insert_comment’,’update_post_time’,99,2); function update_post_time($comment_id, $comment_object) { // Get the post’s ID $post_id = $comment_object->comment_post_ID; // Double check for post’s ID, … Read more

We can on the other hand use a hack like: add_filter( … Read more
It depends on who the comments are for, are they for the administrators and editors or are they also for the contributors? I’ve setup a system, somewhat elaborate, which handles some of what you’re asking, however the easiest way to achieve something like this is by using custom fields. In particular, a custom metabox with … Read more

Assuming you’re properly using comment_form() to output the comment reply form: if( ! array_key_exists( ‘comments’, $wp_query->query_vars ) ) { // Output the comment form comment_form(); } Edit Based on your comments.php code: // If the user isn’t logged in, don’t display comment form if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { global $wp_query; // If the post type … Read more
Since version 4.1.6, Akismet has a filter which allows you to disable these “mShots” (the site preview popups): <?php function disable_akismet_mshots( $value ) { return false; } add_filter( ‘akismet_enable_mshots’, ‘disable_akismet_mshots’ );
Most starter themes now, like Twenty Eleven, come with separate files for each template — for example, single.php and content-single.php represent the Single (Post) template in Twenty Eleven. The starter theme I use, Reddle (ddl), has the same template hierarchy, and here’s the solution I am using… Create a blank Page (NOT Post) titled “Comments, … Read more
