   Please don't bump.

   Comments are stored per-page/post, rather than per user, which means this would be a fairly intensive SQL call to pull up all the comments.

   WP-Stats - http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-stats/ - can do this, but IIRC it only shows the people with 5+ comments.

   get_comments()
   http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_comments

   for instance something like this, in author page:
   

   <?php
   $author_email = get_the_author_meta( 'user_email' ); 
   
   $args = array(
   	'author_email' => $author_email
   );
   $comments = get_comments($args);
   foreach($comments as $comment) :
   	echo('<br />' . $comment->comment_date . '<br />' . $comment->comment_content);
   endforeach;
   ?>

   Does that actually work without a post_id though? Interesting.

   the docu is not very clear - i wonder myself which parameter would take precedence?

   the snippet did return the comments made by the author (local install, not many comments or authors in the system) - obvious only as long he used his email for commenting.

   also interestingly, in contrast to the codex, the argument list of get_comments() in /wp-includes/comment.php does not include the 'author_email'

   173   * The list of comment arguments are 'status', 'orderby', 'comment_date_gmt',
    174   * 'order', 'number', 'offset', and 'post_id'.

   Clearly something to experiment with :)

   I would guess that user_id would be a preferable search parameter than the author email, personally.

   @Ipstenu

   I would guess that user_id would be a preferable search parameter than the author email, personally.

   just checked - user_id results in the same comments returned as the corresponding email address.

   hours of fun and joy ahead ;-)

    Yeah, but if someone changes their email, you won't have 'em all. Where as user_id remains constant.

    alchymyth solution is pretty effective!

    I'm really new in WordPress theme development, and I'm wanting to change the author_email to user_id. I've changed all author_email and user_email to user_id, but what it does is showing all comments from all users.

    I've tried reading the codex but didn't find something helpful. Any help here?
