But wouldn’t <?php bloginfo(‘home’)?> just bring you back to the main page of the blog? I’m looking for something that will redirect the commenter back to whatever page they were visiting, such as archive, search, tag etc.

I’ve seen various solutions that use php, but when I implement them it will redirect to something like “http://scottchandler.ca/research/wp-comments-post.php?phpget_permalink;?#comment-29”

Is there something about how I’m writing the code? Here’s what I have for the comment form:

<?php $fields =  array(
        'author' => '<p class="comment-form-author">' . ( $req ? '<span class="required">*</span>' : '' ) . '<input class="text" id="author" name="author" type="text" value="First name"' . esc_attr( $commenter['comment_author'] ) . '" size="30"' . $aria_req . ' /></p>',
        'redirect_to' => '<input type="hidden" name="redirect_to" value="<?php get_permalink(); ?>"/>',

    );
    $new_defaults=array('title_reply'=>'',
'fields'=>$fields,
'comment_notes_after'  => '',

'comment_field'        => '<p class="comment-form-comment"><label for="comment">' . _x( '', 'noun' ) . '</label><input id="comment" name="comment" value="A quick note."  aria-required="true"></input</p>',

'label_submit'         => __( 'Submit' ),
'comment_notes_before' => '',
);  comment_form($new_defaults); ?>

Bump? I’ve gone through the support forums and all the suggestions for this seem to use the old pre-Wordpress 3 comments implementation and they don’t work anymore . I’ve found the redirect_to tag that I can add to a hidden field, but I don’t know how to get the url of whatever page the user is currently viewing.

I’ll look into this alchymyth. Thanks. I’m new to wordpress and I’m unfamiliar with PHP so I’ll try and report back if this fixes it.

Yep.
