Support » Fixing WordPress » Custom comment type question

  • Hello guys,

    is it possible to define a custom comment type? i need to add rows to the wp_comments table, but i don’t want those comments to appear in the Comments Box. Basically the same of when you add a post where type is not page,post,link and it doesn’t show in the Posts Box.

    For posts, you just need to use a different post_type, and for comments? What is comment_type? How to add comments but hide them from the Comments Box? I don’t want to mix my custom comments with the others..

    Thanks in advance..

    No i couldn’t figure it out. For those comments i use instead another new post_type, and then i create a box for it.
    It’s a trick, not the solution i wanted but it works..

    Hi @stesvis – I just wanted to follow up about customizing the comments and adding data to them. I asked the question on Stack Overflow and got a great answer. Just don’t make the same mistake as I did, and post your questions to the right forum 😉
    here is the link

    Cheers,
