   Is there a way to have a counter inside wp_list_comments so I can put random content in the middle of the comments list with PHP?

   For example: I use wp_list_comments to display 15 comments per page. I want to put a banner every between 5th and 6th comments, a link between 12 and 13th, etc.

   Is there a way of doing it with a callback function?

   Well, i found a way. I am gonna explain here for someone who runs through the same problem.

   I wanted to have:
   ---------------------
   Comment 1
   ---------------------
   Comment 2
   ---------------------
   Comment 3
   ---------------------
   Some stuff (an ad, for instance)
   ---------------------
   Comment 4
   (...)

   I couldn't find a way to put a counter in the wp_list_comments function, but then I found Greg's Threaded Comment Counter, by Greg Mullhouser.

   The plugin does the counting for only top-level comments or for the level that you specify in the settings. Top-level was what I wanted. The problem, for me, is that it echoes the numbers.

   I changed the "echo" for "return" and it now works the way I want. It is not the perfect solution, but it is working.

   So, if someone runs into another solution, I would be glad to know.

   frq.
