If I make the changes to the comments.php file in the THEME directory the changes do show, but obviously every time I update the theme my changes will be overwritten.

For some reason, the plugin is stopping the comments.php from being loaded from the CHILD theme directory.

Duplicated on more than one site. Spent the better part of two days with the staff at GeneratePress, they concur.

I do not want to lose all of the stars on my posts. Is there anyway you can sort this out?

Thanks

<?php 
global $wpdb,$current_user;
$limit = 1; //this is limit per day per user
$comment_count = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare("
SELECT count(*)
FROM wp_comments 
WHERE comment_author = '%s'
AND comment_date >= DATE_SUB(NOW(),INTERVAL 1 DAY);"
,$current_user->user_login) );

if($comment_count < $limit) {
echo 'You submited '.$comment_count.' comment(s) from '.$limit.' available '; 
comment_form( hestia_comments_template() );
} 
else {
echo 'You have reached your comments daily limit : '.$limit;
}
?>

This code work perfectly with WP core comment system, but when switch to wpdiscuz, it doesn’t work at all.
Any suggestion or change to let wpdiscuz supports this code.
Thanks

Bedankt allereerst voor de mooie plugin. Ik zocht al een tijdje zoiets en ik ben blij dat je hem gemaakt hebt. Bij mij werkt het nog niet helemaal. Ik zie geen checkbox waarschijnlijk omdat ik een comments.php aangepast waarbij het e-mailadres niet nogmaals hoeft te worden ingevuld. Mensen zijn tenslotte al ingelogd in het ledendeel. Ook heb ik een snippet waardoor alleen de voornaam zichtbaar is.

Wat ik me afvraag is het volgende. Wat heeft de plugin nodig om te werken? Welke aanpassingen zou ik kunnen doen zodat het werkt

Ik hoor het graag.

What does this mean? Thx.

In a perfect world, I would like the widget area to show up when there are no comments and when there are comments then obviously the widget area goes away replaced with the comments.

The html:

<aside class="col span-04 sidebar comments">
	<div class="sidebar-frame">
		<div class="widget-area">
			<h3>Comments</h3>
			<?php comments_template(); ?>
		</div>
	</div>
</aside>

FYI: all of this on single.php and it’s all viewable on my site: SaturdaythruSunday.com

I am having horrible issues with incessant spam comment posts!

I already have Google reCAPTCHA set up, and I have successfully integrated it into my contact form (Contact Form 7) with the text “I am not a robot” appearing just above the submit button. However, I have been unable to discover a way to include the reCAPTCHA into the comments.php portion of my theme, Twenty Fourteen.

Is there a way to include code directly into the comments.php (or perhaps custom CSS) to include the reCAPTCHA into all comment forms. I am using a child theme of Twenty Fourteen and the standard comments.php is as follows:

<?php
/**
 * The template for displaying Comments
 *
 * The area of the page that contains comments and the comment form.
 *
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Twenty_Fourteen
 * @since Twenty Fourteen 1.0
 */

/*
 * If the current post is protected by a password and the visitor has not yet
 * entered the password we will return early without loading the comments.
 */
if ( post_password_required() ) {
	return;
}
?>

<div id="comments" class="comments-area">

	<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>

	<h2 class="comments-title">
		<?php
			printf( _n( 'One thought on “%2$s”', '%1$s thoughts on “%2$s”', get_comments_number(), 'twentyfourteen' ),
				number_format_i18n( get_comments_number() ), get_the_title() );
		?>
	</h2>

	<?php if ( get_comment_pages_count() > 1 && get_option( 'page_comments' ) ) : ?>
	<nav id="comment-nav-above" class="navigation comment-navigation" role="navigation">
		<h1 class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Comment navigation', 'twentyfourteen' ); ?></h1>
		<div class="nav-previous"><?php previous_comments_link( __( '← Older Comments', 'twentyfourteen' ) ); ?></div>
		<div class="nav-next"><?php next_comments_link( __( 'Newer Comments →', 'twentyfourteen' ) ); ?></div>
	</nav><!-- #comment-nav-above -->
	<?php endif; // Check for comment navigation. ?>

	<ol class="comment-list">
		<?php
			wp_list_comments( array(
				'style'       => 'ol',
				'short_ping'  => true,
				'avatar_size' => 34,
			) );
		?>
	<!-- .comment-list -->

	<?php if ( get_comment_pages_count() > 1 && get_option( 'page_comments' ) ) : ?>

	<nav id="comment-nav-below" class="navigation comment-navigation" role="navigation">
		<h1 class="screen-reader-text"><?php _e( 'Comment navigation', 'twentyfourteen' ); ?></h1>

		<div class="nav-next"><?php next_comments_link( __( 'Newer Comments →', 'twentyfourteen' ) ); ?></div>
	</nav><!-- #comment-nav-below -->
	<?php endif; // Check for comment navigation. ?>

	<?php if ( ! comments_open() ) : ?>
	<p class="no-comments"><?php _e( 'Comments are closed.', 'twentyfourteen' ); ?></p>
	<?php endif; ?>

	<?php endif; // have_comments() ?>

	<?php comment_form(); ?>

</div><!-- #comments -->

Thank you very much in advance for any help you may provide, and please let me know if you need anything additional!

[Moderator note: code fixed. Please wrap code in the backtick character or use the code button.]

Thank you very much in advance for any help you may provide, and please let me know if you need anything additional!

<ol class="comment-list">
			<?php
			echo "zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz";
				wp_list_comments( 'type=comment&callback=gossebeau_comment' );	?>
		</ol><!-- .comment-list -->

The “zzz” line is displayed on localhost, but does not appear online, which leads me to think that my comments.php file is not used online. I’ve checked, and the php version is the same online and on wamp. How can I fix this ?

Here is the code in our comments PHP:
