• Please someone help.. I have been trying to do this all day.
    I am trying to display the comment and author on the same line like this:

    1-23-11 ANON says: Some Comment Here!!!!

    Everytime I try and change the comments.php it still displays like this:

    1-23-11 ANON Says:
    Some Comment Here!!!!

    Anyone know how to do this??Thanks!

  • can you post the relevant section of your comments.php?

    if the code is longer than a few lines, please use a http://wordpress.pastebin.com/

    this is the section in the comments.php that displays the comment…no matter where I move <?php comment_text() ?> it keeps showing up beneath the date and name….

    <!– You can start editing here. –>

    <?php if ($comments) : ?>

    <h3 id=”comments”><?php comments_number(‘No Responses’, ‘One Response’, ‘% Responses’ );?> to “<?php the_title(); ?>”</h3>
    <div class=”comments”>
    <ol class=”comments_list”>
    <?php foreach ($comments as $comment) : ?>

    <li <?php echo $oddcomment; ?>id=”comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>”>
    <cite><?php comment_author_link() ?></cite> Says:
    <?php if ($comment->comment_approved == ‘0’) : ?>
    Your comment is awaiting moderation.
    <?php endif; ?>

    <small class=”commentmetadata”>” title=””><?php comment_date(‘F jS, Y’) ?> at <?php comment_time() ?> <?php edit_comment_link(‘edit’,’  ‘,”); ?></small>
    <?php comment_text() ?>

    <?php
    /* Changes every other comment to a different class */
    $oddcomment = ( empty( $oddcomment ) ) ? ‘class=”alt” ‘ : ”;
    ?>
    <?php endforeach; /* end for each comment */ ?>

    </div>

    <?php else : // this is displayed if there are no comments so far ?>

    <?php if (‘open’ == $post->comment_status) : ?>
    <!– If comments are open, but there are no comments. –>

    try to concatenate the elements into one string and then apply the filter for ‘comment_text’

    $inline_commment = get_the_time('d-n-y') . ' ' . get_comment_author_link() . ' says: ' . get_comment_text();
    echo apply_filters( 'comment_text', $inline_commment);
