Does anyone have any suggestions? I just want to find out how to stop a set of <p> tags being put around my comments.
What file is responsible for the comments?
comments.php is responsible for all of the comments. I need to add a class to <p> in the “comment_text” Does anyone know how to do this?
Just do this:
<div class="comment-text">
<?php comment_text(); ?>
</div>
Only problem with that solution is if you’re using the class “comment-text” to add a box around the text for instance, the <p></p> tags that are automatically wrapped around that text adds a big space to the bottom of that box.

| Text... |
| (space) |

I’d also like to know if there’s some way to disable the tags without having to mess around with the php files.
I’ve just figured out a solution for that – as I also needed the comments without the <p> tags wrapped around them.
Remove the following line from your comments.php file in the folder wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME_FOLDER
<?php comment_text() ?>
Now place it with:
<?php echo $comment->comment_content; ?>
And that’s it!
Wow, the EXACT answer I was looking for! Thank you!
