i’ll try that out…i assume this is not just a plug in and will require some file editing?
Yes, you need to edit the css (to specify how the comment will look different) and call the function in the comments.php template
I looked over several options/tutorials for this, and ended up with the following, which retains the odd/even styling as well as adding a style for author comment:
<div class="
<?php
if ($comment->comment_author_email == "name@domain.com")
echo "authorcomment";
else
if ($oddcomment)
echo "odd-comment";
else
echo "even-comment";
?>" id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
I then tooled around with .authorcomment { } in CSS to make it appear the way I wanted. (sample)
I know next to nothing about PHP, so if anyone can point out how to add the equivalent of “and $comment->comment_author == ‘name'”, I’d appreciate it. The programmer in me also suggests there should be some “endif” statements in there, but when I tried to add them, I broke the page.
thanks guys..i’m gonna fiddle with it..it’d be nice to see an example of the author plug in to see if it actually works lol
ahh bugger. i can’t get it to work..there was a reason i focused on design and not code lol
Author Highlight works well.
