Solved the issue. Thank you @birgire for giving me a hint. First I edited MySQL wp_comments table by changing comment_content rows «Type» from TEXT to MEDIUMTEXT and restarted MySQL. Then created filter in functions.php: add_filter( ‘wp_get_comment_fields_max_lengths’, ‘my_length’ ); function my_length ( $lengths ) { global $wpdb; $lengths = array( ‘comment_author’ => 245, ‘comment_author_email’ => 100, … Read more

I.e get the post ID query all of the post’s comments’ IDs (WP_Comment_Query or custom … Read more

Why nested REPLY not working in WP Comments?
Add this to your theme functions file: // This will occur when the comment is posted function plc_comment_post( $incoming_comment ) { // convert everything in a comment to display literally $incoming_comment[‘comment_content’] = htmlspecialchars($incoming_comment[‘comment_content’]); // the one exception is single quotes, which cannot be #039; because WordPress marks it as spam $incoming_comment[‘comment_content’] = str_replace( “‘”, ‘'’, … Read more
