Comment Authors Not Displaying Correctly

    I tried to comment on the page with different users. However, it only displays the name of one of the authors for every comment post even though that author only posted one of the comments.

    If you open the developer tools, you can see the comments aren’t being posted by the same user:

    Hey there,

    It seems author of this theme used the wrong function, they’re grabbing the article author rather than the comment author. You can open this file up:

    /weblizar/core/comment-box/comment-function.php

    And change this:

    <span><?php the_author();?></span>

    To this:

    <span><?php comment_author(); ?></span>

    This will then get the comment author for you.

    Hope this helps, have a great day! 🙂
