wordpress commenting system - wordpress

I am trying to use wordpress's commenting system. Their documentation is very confusing and it is kind of a pain to work with. I am trying to use the same commenting system they have on the default twentytwelve theme. It seems to be the way I want it. But even when using the same code they have I do not get a list of previous comment.
This is my comments.php
if ( post_password_required() )
return;
?>
<div id="comments" class="comments-area">
<?php // You can start editing here -- including this comment! ?>
<?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(), 'dogcompany' ),
number_format_i18n( get_comments_number() ), '<span>' . get_the_title() . '</span>' );
?>
</h2>

<?php wp_list_comments( array( 'callback' => 'dogcompany_comment', 'style' => 'ol' ) ); ?>

Thank you,

I don't know exactly where you are mistaken. Use new wordpress pack comments.php and functions.php codes. I think it will be solve your problem.

How to prevent Wordpress redirecting to /wp-comments-post on email validation

I have a comments section which I am looking to have inline validation. It appears to work when no details are entered in the form fields. But if I enter an email that is not in the correct format (eg. notavalidemail.com) I am redirected to /wp-comments-post.php
How do I prevent this default action and include inline validation. Is this something that can only be done with JS/jQuery and is not a native action?
My comments file includes -
// comments.php
if ( post_password_required() ) {
return;
}
$boilerplate_comment_count = get_comments_number();
?>
<div id="comments" class="comments <?php echo get_option( 'show_avatars' ) ? 'comments__avatars--show' : ''; ?>">

<?php esc_html_e( '1 comment', THEME_NAME ); ?>
<?php else : ?>
<?php
printf(
/* translators: %s: Comment count number. */
esc_html( _nx( '%s comment', '%s comments', $boilerplate_comment_count, 'Comments title', THEME_NAME ) ),
esc_html( number_format_i18n( $boilerplate_comment_count ) )
);

}
?>
<?php edit_comment_link( __( 'Edit' ), '<div class="comments__item--edit">', '</div>' ); ?>
</div>
</div>
</article>

Is there something that I am missing out that is native to WP or can this type of action only be perform by JS? I see that comment_form() has the action argument that defaults to /wp-comments-post.php. DO I need to make changes here?

Add comment date to comment author div wordpress

I'm trying to learn to use wordpress.
I'm trying to change comments layout and I want to join comment date to comment author data. But I am not getting it. For example, I have what is in first image but I want what it is in second. Can you help please? Thanks so much!
I think your main problem is that you want to customize the way the date is placed using only css but that's extremely hard.
The best thing for you to do is have your own custom comment code.
Wordpress let's you have your own comments code.
For example when you call the comment template code instead of doing this:
wp_list_comments( array(
'style' => 'ol',
'short_ping' => true,
'avatar_size' => 42,
) );
You can do something like this:
<ol class="commentlist">
<?php wp_list_comments( 'type=comment&callback=mytheme_comment' ); ?>
</ol>
And on the function.php file you can add the mytheme_comment function with the original comment code that wp has and reaarrange the classes and html code placement so you can have the date where you want.
function mytheme_comment($comment, $args, $depth) {
if ( 'div' === $args['style'] ) {
$tag = 'div';
$add_below = 'comment';
} else {
$tag = 'li';
$add_below = 'div-comment';
}
?>
<<?php echo $tag ?> <?php comment_class( empty( $args['has_children'] ) ? '' : 'parent' ) ?> id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<?php if ( 'div' != $args['style'] ) : ?>
<div id="div-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>" class="comment-body">
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="comment-author vcard">
<?php if ( $args['avatar_size'] != 0 ) echo get_avatar( $comment, $args['avatar_size'] ); ?>
<?php printf( __( '<cite class="fn">%s</cite> <span class="says">says:</span>' ), get_comment_author_link() ); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( $comment->comment_approved == '0' ) : ?>
<em class="comment-awaiting-moderation"><?php _e( 'Your comment is awaiting moderation.' ); ?></em>
<br />
<?php endif; ?>
<div class="comment-meta commentmetadata"><a href="<?php echo htmlspecialchars( get_comment_link( $comment->comment_ID ) ); ?>">
<?php
/* translators: 1: date, 2: time */
printf( __('%1$s at %2$s'), get_comment_date(), get_comment_time() ); ?></a><?php edit_comment_link( __( '(Edit)' ), ' ', '' );
?>
</div>
<?php comment_text(); ?>
<div class="reply">
<?php comment_reply_link( array_merge( $args, array( 'add_below' => $add_below, 'depth' => $depth, 'max_depth' => $args['max_depth'] ) ) ); ?>
</div>
<?php if ( 'div' != $args['style'] ) : ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php
}
In the default code you can see that the code:
<?php
/* translators: 1: date, 2: time */
printf( __('%1$s at %2$s'), get_comment_date(), get_comment_time() );
?>
is what gives you the date information.
Hope you understanded this.
Here's the original WP documentation about this:
wp list comments

display comments on different categories

I want to only display comments on one of the categories on my wordpress site. So for example my pear category with posts on it will have a comment function available but on my orange page the comment section will be disabled.
Any suggestions?
In the content.php file change:
<?php if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<div class="comments-link">
<?php comments_popup_link( '<span class="leave-reply">' . __( 'Leave a reply', 'twentytwelve' ) . '</span>', __( '1 Reply', 'twentytwelve' ), __( '% Replies', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>
</div><!-- .comments-link -->
<?php endif; // comments_open() ?>
to
<?php
$postid = get_the_ID();
$category = get_the_category( $postid );
$category = $category[0]->cat_name;
if ($category == "Pear")
{
if ( comments_open() ) : ?>
<div class="comments-link">
<?php comments_popup_link( '<span class="leave-reply">' . __( 'Leave a reply', 'twentytwelve' ) . '</span>', __( '1 Reply', 'twentytwelve' ), __( '% Replies', 'twentytwelve' ) ); ?>
</div><!-- .comments-link -->
<?php endif; // comments_open()
}
?>
and in the comments.php file change:
<?php if ( have_comments() ) : ?>
to
<?php
$postid = get_the_ID();
$category = get_the_category( $postid );
$category = $category[0]->cat_name;
if ($category == "Pear")
{
if ( have_comments() ) :
?>
AND change:
<?php endif; // have_comments() ?>
<?php comment_form(); ?>
to
<?php endif; // have_comments() ?>
<?php comment_form();
}
?>
The above should only display comments in posts that are in the Pear category.

How do you get the mp3 file extension from an iTunes feed and display it in a WP loop?

I want to pull the 5 most recent podcasts from an iTunes feed and post them along with their audio to a WP page.
The code I have is below
its pulling the feed and displaying the name, details, etc fine but its using the same podcast audio for each item.
<div class="podcastfeed">
<h4>Recent Podcasts</h4>
<?php // Get $feed Feed(s)
include_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/feed.php' );
$hpFeed=get_post_meta($post->ID, "cmb_hp_feed", true);
$feed = fetch_feed( $hpFeed );
$feed->init();
$feed->handle_content_type();
foreach ($feed->get_items() as $item)
{
if ($enclosure = $item->get_enclosure())
{
$enclosure->get_link();
}
}
if ( ! is_wp_error( $feed ) ) : // Checks that the object is created correctly
// Figure out how many total items there are, but limit it to 5.
$maxitems = $feed->get_item_quantity( 5 );
// Build an array of all the items, starting with element 0 (first element).
$feed_items = $feed->get_items( 0, $maxitems );
endif;
$attr = array(
'src' => $enclosure->get_link(),
'loop' => '',
'autoplay' => '',
'preload' => 'none'
);
?>
<ol>
<?php if ( $maxitems == 0 ) : ?>
<li><?php _e( 'No items', 'my-text-domain' ); ?></li>
<?php else : ?>
<?php // Loop through each feed item and display each item as a hyperlink. ?>
<?php foreach ( $feed_items as $item ) : ?>
<li>
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( $item->get_permalink() ); ?>"
title="<?php printf( __( 'Posted %s', 'my-text-domain' ), $item->get_date('F j, Y') ); ?>">
<p>
<span>
<?php echo esc_html( $item->get_title() ); ?>
</span>
<span><?php printf( __( '%s', 'my-text-domain' ), $item->get_date('F j, Y') ); ?></span>
</p>
</a>
<?php echo wp_audio_shortcode( $attr );?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</ol>
</div>
I got it working in the end though it took some fiddling with
The page is now displaying each of the podcasts as audio.
<div class="podcastfeed">
<?php // Get $feed Feed(s)
include_once( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/feed.php' );
$hpFeed=get_post_meta($post->ID, "cmb_hp_feed", true);

$rss = fetch_feed( $hpFeed );
if ( ! is_wp_error( $rss ) ) : // Checks that the object is created correctly
// Figure out how many total items there are, but limit it to 5.
$maxitems = $rss->get_item_quantity( 5 );
// Build an array of all the items, starting with element 0 (first element).
$rss_items = $rss->get_items( 0, $maxitems );
endif;
?>
<?php if ( $maxitems == 0 ) : ?>
<ol style="display:none;"><?php _e( 'No items', 'my-text-domain' ); ?></ol>
