Display comments for the latest post in a certain category

  • Eliot —

    Sincerely appreciate your dedication to this plugin — I’m excited to get it to work on my site.

    I can see it’s going to help me get around the limitations of many themes in my site designs.

    Currently, I’m trying to use it with Divi 2.2 from elegant themes. What I’d like to do is use it to display

    Comments from the latest post of a certain category and allow users to post comments.

    The blog is already displayed and there will be content below the comments and comment form. Could you help me on how to go about this?

    Thanks!

    T.

    Technically, it is possible, like this:

    [loop type="post" count="1" category="specific"]
  [comments count="5"]
    [comment content]
  [/comments]
  [comment form]
[/loop]

    This will display the 5 most recent comments, and a comment form at the end.

    I say “technically possible”, because the comment form is a very basic one provided by WordPress by default. When a user clicks Submit without comment, it goes to a whole another page to display an error. It also might depend on the theme you’re using.

    So, you can see how it works for you. I’ll see if I can find a good solution for the form.
