Threaded comments/Replying to comments

    Hi 🙂

    I am currently using the default Kubrik theme.

    I added <?php $withcomments = 1; ?> and <?php comments_template( 'comments.php' ); ?> to the index.php

    I can see the post and its comments in the index page.

    Usually, when replying to threaded comments, the comment form will automatically change its location to just below the comment you are trying to reply to.

    However, when I click “reply” the page just refresh and brought me to the following address: http://localhost/wp/?replytocom=9#respond

    My wordpress default path is located at /wp and I didn’t changed the url rewrite settings.

    Any help?

    Thanks in advance 🙂

    I added <?php $withcomments = 1; ?> and <?php comments_template( ‘comments.php’ ); ?> to the index.php

    Why?

    WordPress will not show comments on the index by default, you need the $withcomments = 1 in order to obtain that functionality..

    Clicking reply links only updates particular data so that the comment is registered as reply-to type comment (i think literally just a few input values are updated). The link it pointed you to is just the comment form’s anchor…

    Is there something missing from that URL, because otherwise it looks perfectly normal…

    Do comments end up in the right place?

    Need a few more details..

    @esmi
    So that I can list all the comments of the posts in the index using <?php comments_template( ‘comments.php’ ); ?> 🙂

    @t31os
    I did enable $withcomments = 1.

    The comments end up in the right place, they are showing up fine, and the reply box is there too. I can even reply normally, although I end up in the post’s single.php instead of staying at index.php

    If it is possible, try modifying the default kubrick index.php and just add $withcomments = 1 and <?php comments_template( ‘comments.php’ ); ?> in the loop in case it’s hard to understand 😛

    Thanks for the replies!

    I understand, i mentioned the withcomments variable for esmi.

    I see the problem, after a comment is submitted you’re redirected to the single entry URL. I’ve no idea how to change that unfortunately.

    I’ve no doubt there is a simple way, i’ve not dealt with the problem before though, so i can’t offer anything to help….

    Try the wp-hackers mailing list…
