I used to use that plugin in conjunction with ScriptyGoddess’ Comment & Trackback seperation hack with 1.2, however neither seem to be working with 1.5 yet. Well, the mw_comments function works (it’ll tally all comments and trackbacks), but the mw_trackbacks doesn’t (doesn’t return anything).
I used to use both those functions on my comments page, with trackback on top of the comments. It worked like a champ and it’s something I miss. Hopefully both will get updated soon.

JuneBleeds how did it actually work, or more how did you actually implement it to work? Was it like I described or was there more to it than that?
khaled from the date of Eric’s plugin it is not going to be a 1.5 thing I would think. It just needs someone to adapt it.
No. I am wrong about that. When you say it doesnt work – whats happening. Mine is now installed and activated. Thanks Eric.
I just installed it and activated it but am not sure by khaled’ first post if I need to add as mentioned,
<?php function mw_comments('') ?>
&
<?php comment_text() ?>
could not find a readme file or documentation on his site than the actual plugin. ??
Well you have to add the calls to your blog. The functions and params are on Erics blog. Its cool really.

When I put the
<?php function mw_comments('') ?>
or the trackback php then I get a nice big error. Like dawg said I have no idea how to implement this since there is no readme to accompany it. Honest I’ll write the bloody readme for the guy if I get this to work, because I’ve been trying to implement this for a while.
What is the markup Root?
What do I put where, to show trackbacks in one area and comments in another?
I am just getting mine fixed up. Presumably this is going to be instead of whatever you have now.
Ok. Here is what I have. Step one is work out which file your comments are being controlled by. Hacked 1.2 is different from 1.5 in this respect.

I get this error when I use the php tag
<?php function mw_comments('') ?>
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CONSTANT_ENCAPSED_STRING, expecting ‘&’ or T_VARIABLE in C:\Program Files\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\Websites\Sublime\
wp-content\themes\iso\comments.php on line 34
I tried it on my website as well so instead of the c:… substitute the actual path on the server.
my comments are found in comments.php and called in single.php
Mine has borked on the function call. This is tricky.
khaled I have the same error.
I am trying to follow along, I tried to see it in action on his blog but could not find it
khaled as a service to the community why not send Eric an email?

I think I’ll do that, because I know loads of people have been trying to implement this. Right I’ll get onto it 🙂
