    Hi,

    Could you give some more details about the changes that you made so far? Basically, as long as the args array uses the keys from here https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Class_Reference/WP_Comment_Query#Default_Usage everything should be fine when. Also, I think you can use pre_get_comments hook to alter the comments results. Have you tried to use this?

    Hi
    Thanks for your reply.I have used pre_get_comments hook.But nothing changed.
    I have used this code in my plugin.Please tell me what is the wrong with this code.
    function action_pre_get_comments( $array ) {
    // make action magic happen here…
    }

    // add the action
    add_action( ‘pre_get_comments’, ‘action_pre_get_comments’, 10, 1 );
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,

    Can you try this code, please?

    add_action('pre_get_comments', function($query) {
	$query->meta_query = new WP_Comment_Query();
 
	$query->query_vars['orderby'] = 'my_meta_key';
 
	$query->meta_query->parse_query_vars( $query->query_vars );
});

    I just tried to use something like this:

    add_action('pre_get_comments', function($query) {
	$query->meta_query = new WP_Comment_Query();
 
	$query->query_vars['orderby'] = 'user_id';
	$query->query_vars['order'] = 'ASC';
 
	$query->meta_query->parse_query_vars( $query->query_vars );
});

    and it works very well.
