“&hellip” Showing in WordPress Comments 3.0

possibly/probably a theme issue, locate your comments.php then locate the &hellip and add a semi colon after it to make it:
…

no luck..

I got this error when i updated my wordpress to 3.0..

What error?

try changing the … to & #8230;
if that doesn’t work I’m all out of ideas.

still… not working…

@ esmi..

After the name of the commenter. (username) there is a username&hellip

Have you tried:

– deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem? If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

– switching to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific problems?

can you cut and paste the line(and a couple from around it) from the relevant theme file.

Hi Esmi

I already did that.. I already deactivate all the plugins.. still theres an error..

Maybe because my Blix SEO Dave theme..

Hi Elfin..

here is t.. from comments.php

<?php if ($comment->comment_type == “comment”) comment_author_link();
else {
strlen($comment->comment_author)?$author=substr($comment->comment_author,0,25).”&hellip”:$author=substr($comment->comment_author,0,25);
echo ‘comment_author_url.'”>’.$author.’‘;

}
?>

The &hellip still doesn’t have a ; after it, I’ve changed the code to include it.

strlen($comment->comment_author)?$author=substr($comment->comment_author,0,25)."…":$author=substr($comment->comment_author,0,25);

Remember to press CTRL and F5 simultaneously when viewing an updated page/site. Or try emptying your browser cache. This should ensure that your web browser fetches a fresh copy of the page rather than serving up an out-dated copy from your own cache.

still it doesnt work esmi..

anyone? pls help me.

Everthing looks perfectly fine to me, using Firefox 3.6.4.

Commentator names on the linked post display as such:

Have you tried clearing your browser’s cache?

Perhaps we are misunderstanding you. Do you want the ... removed?
