Trie that but it didn’t make a difference. It’s as if legacy.comments.php isn’t being used.

Here’s legacy.comments.php:

<?php // Do not delete these lines
	if ('comments.php' == basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME']))
		die ('Please do not load this page directly. Thanks!');

	if (!empty($post->post_password)) { // if there's a password
		if ($_COOKIE['wp-postpass_' . COOKIEHASH] != $post->post_password) {  // and it doesn't match the cookie
			?>

			<p class="nocomments">This post is password protected. Enter the password to view comments.</p>

			<?php
			return;
		}
	}

	/* This variable is for alternating comment background */
	$oddcomment = 'alt';
?>

<?php
	global $bm_comments;
	global $bm_trackbacks;

	split_comments( $comments );
?>

Here is what comments.php has:

<?php
global $wpdb;

$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT ID, post_title, post_password, comment_ID,
comment_post_ID, comment_author, comment_date_gmt, comment_approved,
comment_type,comment_author_url,
SUBSTRING(comment_content,1,150) AS com_excerpt
FROM $wpdb->comments
LEFT OUTER JOIN $wpdb->posts ON ($wpdb->comments.comment_post_ID =
$wpdb->posts.ID)
WHERE comment_approved = '1' AND comment_type = '' AND
post_password = ''
ORDER BY comment_date_gmt DESC LIMIT 6";

$comments = $wpdb->get_results($sql);
$output = $pre_HTML;

foreach ($comments as $comment) {
$output .= "\n
<li>"."<a href=\"" . get_permalink($comment->ID) .
"#comment-" . $comment->comment_ID . "\" title=\"on " .
$comment->post_title . "\">" .strip_tags($comment->comment_author)
.": " . strip_tags($comment->com_excerpt)
."...</a></li>

";
}

$output .= $post_HTML;

echo $output; ?>

chinmoy, which comment related file are you talking about? And which code do I replace with `<?php comments_number(‘No’, ‘1’, ‘%’ );?>?

Thanks, and sorry if I don’t reply soon, just about to go to bed.

Just to update, have a solution here: https://board.splash.de/showthread.php?p=175948

Hey guys, sorry to bring this thread back up, but I’m trying to accomplish the same thing as the OP.

Really my only question at this point is where do I paste this code (which file):

if ($proPlayer) {
echo $proPlayer->addPlayerCode(get_post_meta($post->ID, $key, true));
}

Thanks guys!
