    I want to change the text “Your comment is awaiting moderation” after an unregistered person posts a comment, but I can’t find the file to modify. Someone suggested comments.php in my theme files, but I don’t have that file. I’m using the theme “adventure”

  • You’re going to have to look in your theme files. It’s in there somewhere.

    I found the comments.php in the default theme file and edited it. It worked. I’m not sure why I don’t have this comments.php in my own theme file, but I didn’t write it, and I’m not very verse in “the loop.”

    It must be calling it since it find it elsewhere. I know some theme designers try to combine their code into lesser files.

    Heck, copy it over to your theme. ??

    Thanks. I’m not sure where it is calling it from. I can’t find a reference in the index.php file. These are the only theme files that I have:

    index.php
    master.css
    print.css
    searchform.php
    style.css

    WordPress itself does the calling. When it can’t find a theme element in your current theme, it’ll check the Default one next.

    Does it make sense to put the comments.php file in my theme files? I guess I’ll have to learn more about it.

    What HS is saying is that since it can’t find it, it’s using the Default theme’s file instead.

    Heck, copy it over. ??
