Feature Packed Comments.php File

by Gobala Krishnan on October 22, 2006

in Wordpress Themes

This is a comments.php file with a twist. Simple integrate it into whatever theme you happen to be using, provide the CSS and it will provide you with all of these:

  • Trackback link
  • Ordered list of trackbacks/pingbacks with total number displayed and without messy pingback text
  • Ordered list of comments with total number displayed and author/date separated from content
  • Striping of all comments (class=”odd/even”) as well as highlighting of author comments (class=”highlight”)
  • Standard comment form that is only slightly different from the one in the default Wordpress template
  • Code-comments to call out where you can add Gravatar and Live Preview plugin calls
  • Option to change author name, author e-mail, and class name for author comment highlighting
