Get Comment Reply Form to appear directly under comment replying to.

  • Hi Everyone,

    I’m currently developing the comments section of my site and would like to make a change to the comments reply form, but can’t seem to figure it out after much searching.

    I’d like for the “Comment Reply Form” to appear directly under the comment a user is replying to. Currently, the “Comment Reply Form” stays at the top of the comments section when you click reply.

    Here is my site: https://www.aimeemars.com
    Here is a post with a comment on it: https://www.aimeemars.com/whipped-feta-and-tomato-sandwich/

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Best,

    Aimee

    This is how your theme is coded. As it appears that you’re using something custom, please contact its developer.

    Hey Steve,

    I actually developed the site and coded it myself. I haven’t had much luck in figuring out how to set up the comments reply form under the comment being replied to. Would you be able to help me in figuring out the proper code and where the code should be placed or go?

    Thanks,

    Aimee

    You need to look at the PHP file you use to handle comments.

    The plugin “show current template” will show you all the PHP files used to render the current page, and that will tell you where to look.

    Did you start with a starter theme like _s?

    I didn’t start with a starter theme, but I did use the comments.php from the TwentyFourteen template.

    I’ve downloaded/activated the “show current template” plugin, and it’s not showing in my admin toolbar and the admin toolbar isn’t showing on the front end of my site. I also have “show toolbar when viewing site” checked in the user tab as well.

    Any help you could provide would be great. Thanks!!
