How to Add Numbers Into Comments
Hello! I know i’m late. But im working hard. I had a tow weeks of a travel for works. I was away from computer. Than i’m here now :) This trick is a comments.php hack :) Let’s begin…
Here is the code;
We will edit your WordPress’ theme. You should make a backup of comments.php. If you make a backup, continue…
We will edit comments.php and we add some code into this file. First, look at the code;
<ol id="commentlist">
<?php $i = 1; ?>
<?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>
<li <?php comment_class(); ?> id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
<?php echo get_avatar( $comment, 32 ); ?>
<?php comment_text() ?>
<p><cite><?php comment_type(_c('Comment|noun'), __('Trackback'), __('Pingback')); ?> <?php _e('by'); ?> <?php comment_author_link() ?> — <?php comment_date() ?> @ <a href="#comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"><?php comment_time() ?></a></cite> <?php edit_comment_link(__("Edit This"), ' |'); ?></p>
<div class="commentnumber">#<?php echo $i; ?></div>
</li>
<?php $i++; ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
Do you see the added code? If you don’t i will write them here. Add this codes into your comments.php like me;
<?php $i = 1; ?> <div class="commentnumber">#<?php echo $i; ?></div> <?php $i++; ?>
If you want to add link to reply. Just change #<?php echo $i; ?> with this code;
<a href="#comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>" title="">#<?php echo $i; ?></a>
Finally, The CSS. Add this css into your style.css;
/* Comment Numbers */
.commentnumber {
position: absolute;
right: 5px;
top: 5px;
font-size: 18px;
color: #454545;
}
.commentlist li {
position: relative;
}
/* Comment Numbers */
That’s All. This is the screenshot :)
