    I want to display all the comments available on my website with pagination.
    Maximum 5/10 comments per page, with date, author and linked to respective posts.

    This is what I am currently trying to use:

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Display All Comments
Template Post Type: page
*/
?>

<?php wp_list_comments('per_page=5', get_comments()) ?> 
<div class="navigation">
<?php paginate_comments_links() ?>
<?php previous_comments_link() ?>
<?php next_comments_link() ?>
</div>

  • Hi

    You just need to check the box and choose the amount of comments :

    Admin > Settings > Discussion then in Other comment settings you check 6 text boxes

    Yes, I have got the following code, working like charm. I hope it will also help others who are looking for the same feature to display all the comments on one page with pagination.

    Here is the code, enjoy!:

    <?php
/*
Template Name: Display All Comments
Template Post Type: page
*/
?>

<?php 

/*Set how many comments per page*/
$comments_per_page=4;

/*Count comments and count only approved*/
$all_comments = wp_count_comments();
/*If you are going to get only comments from a post you need to change the above code to
$all_comments = wp_count_comments($post->ID);
*/
$all_comments_approved = $all_comments->approved;

/*Get Current Page Var*/
$paged = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
/*How many comments offset*/
$offset = (($paged-1) * $comments_per_page) ;
/*Max number of pages*/
$max_num_pages = ceil( $all_comments_approved / $comments_per_page );

/*Get Comments*/
/*If you are going to get comments from a post you need to add 'post_id' => $post->ID, to the array*/
$comments = get_comments(array(
'status' => 'approve',
'number' => $comments_per_page,
'offset' => $offset
));

/*Show Comments*/
if ( $comments ) {
foreach ( $comments as $comment ) {
echo '<p>' . $comment->comment_content . '</p><br><br>';
}
} else {
// echo 'No comments found.';
}

/*Set current page for pagination*/
$current_page = max(1, get_query_var('paged'));
/*Echo paginate links*/
echo paginate_links(array(
'base' => get_pagenum_link(1) . '%_%',
'current' => $current_page,
'total' => $max_num_pages,
'prev_text' => __('&laquo; Previous'),
'next_text' => __('Next &raquo;'),
'end_size' => 2,
'mid-size' => 3
));

?>

    Thanks to theidioms.com
