I was wondering if anyone knew of a plugin that will allow me to insert a comment teaser within a post.
For example if I want to add "what do you think?" at the end of a post to encourage someone to leave a comment that would link to the comment for the post.
I can't hyperlink the text "#respond" because that would only work if I was looking at the single page view of the post.
Any ideas?
you can use this :)
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>#respond"></a>

Oh duh. Thanks.
You know what would be cool would be a plugin that put a form field that you could post the tease automatically in the post.
maybe i should write one hehe, it would be my first plugin if i do :) make the post resolved please

oops. that doesn't work. won't pickup the wordpress permalink reference. See the end of my first post here steveeller.com
Yes I have runPHP enabled for this post.
how about instead of putting this teaser in the post, put it in the post loop, so it comes up for all the posts automatically
so like put
<div class="teaser"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>#respond"></a></div>
and put this like after the
<?php the_content('Read the rest of this entry »'); ?>
try that

The only problem is that text being used with the link will change from post to post.
for example:
<div class="teaser">#respond">Text that will change every post

oops forgot to use the code tag:
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>#respond">Text that will change every post</a>
when you are posting code put it in the it between backticks
"Put code in between backticks."

Well I guess I will just have to manually past in the link to the comment. Oh well.
ohh i see your idea, well than we can do that actually
with custom fields
<a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>#respond"><?php $key="teaser"; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true); ?></a>and in teh post custom field section add a field called teaser and just change whatever you want in this field, should work great :)
you don;t have to manually do anything, the custom field option will work, i use custom fields for many many thing on my site. form image links to posting code into posts
