Customize<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Then scroll down to Additional&nbsp;CSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To center the comment form, insert this code in the box:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  #respond p {\n    text-align: center;\n  }<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong>&nbsp;If this doesn\u2019t work, then inspect element on a post page comment form to see what&nbsp;CSS&nbsp;you need to set \u201ctext-align: center;\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_show_wordpress_comment_counts\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_to_show_wordpress_comment_counts\"><\/span>How to Show WordPress Comment Counts?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a couple of different places you might want to display your WordPress comment counts, such as on the actual post page &#8211; giving visitors the opportunity to see how popular a post is, without scrolling down a bunch, or showing the comment statistics on the WP admin side of things, where your admin staff can see it, but regular users cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"show_comment_counts_on_posts_public_facing\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"show_comment_counts_on_posts_public_facing\"><\/span>Show Comment Counts on Posts (Public Facing)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the more flexible approaches is to create a shortcode to your child theme functions.php and then include that shortcode on your posts wherever you\u2019d like the comment count to appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  add_shortcode( 'showcomment_count', 'commentnum' );\n  function commentnum() {\n    $commentnumber= get_comments_number(get_the_ID());\n    return $commentnumber;\n  }<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, wherever you\u2019d like the comment count to appear, just insert [showcomment_count] in your child theme file (such as the post template \/ theme page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"show_comment_counts_on_admin_pages_admin_facing\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"show_comment_counts_on_admin_pages_admin_facing\"><\/span>Show Comment Counts on Admin Pages (Admin Facing)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of showing publicly, perhaps you\u2019d rather have some admin statistics available to summarize the state of your comments, so you instantly know how many you\u2019ve got, and can monitor performance with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can use a plugin-based approach for adding comment statistics, and other stats, to your WP admin area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Install the WP Statistics plugin using our How to Install Plugins procedure:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-statistics\/\">WP Statistics<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve installed and activated the plugin, navigate to the plugin settings and configure to suit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_change_wordpress_comment_submit_button_text\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_to_change_wordpress_comment_submit_button_text\"><\/span>How to Change WordPress Comment Submit Button Text?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to change the text on the comment submit button, which normally says, \u201cPost Comment\u201d, you\u2019ve got a few options at your disposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, you could edit your theme file comment.php, though with any upgrades you could easily find that file overwritten and have to perform the changes again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or, you could create a child theme, copy that file over and then edit it, so that you preserve the integrity of core files and theme files and eliminate the risk of upgrade overwrites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are occasions when you\u2019d like to change something without editing any files. Through the use of a search and replace plugin, you can edit the comment button text and not have to worry about editing files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Install the CM On Demand Search and Replace plugin using our How to Install Plugins procedure:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/cm-on-demand-search-and-replace\/\">CM on Demand Search and Replace<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you\u2019ve installed and activated the plugin, navigate to the plugin settings and configure to suit. Given the myriad of choices available, you might want to consult the plugin developer information pages for details about what you can do exactly:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cminds.com\/wordpress-plugins-library\/search-and-replace-plugin-for-wordpress\/\">Search and Replace Plugin for Wordpres<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you\u2019ll find that changing the comment button text takes just a few seconds with this handy plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_collapse_long_wordpress_comments_with_read_more\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_to_collapse_long_wordpress_comments_with_read_more\"><\/span>How to Collapse Long WordPress Comments with Read More?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When there are long comments that stylistically don\u2019t appeal to you, and you\u2019d like to retain those comments, but just massage their display so they\u2019re a bit more palatable, much like how Amazon comments work, consider collapsing the content with a, \u201cRead More\u201d link, that when clicked will open up the remainder of the comment for full reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a number of similar solutions in the WordPress.org plugin repository, most of which rely on one or another of the jQuery Collapser (or similar jQuery code).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Install the Truncate Comments plugin using our How to Install Plugins procedure:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/truncate-comments\/\">truncate comments<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the plugin settings page on WP admin, you can choose what the, \u201cRead More\u201d text should be, the speed of the expanding action, what size of comment should trigger the truncate plugin and even whether to use, \u201c\u2026\u201d or something else instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_style_post_author_comments_in_wordpress_without_a_plugin\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_to_style_post_author_comments_in_wordpress_without_a_plugin\"><\/span>How to Style Post Author Comments in WordPress Without a Plugin?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The beauty of Customizer is that you can make big-impact&nbsp;CSS&nbsp;changes with minimal effort, and without changing the coding of your core files or even theme files directly, by going to the WordPress admin panel and selecting:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  Appearance -&gt; Customize<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Then scroll down to Additional&nbsp;CSS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author comments are comments made by the post author, obviously. However, when you scroll through a list of comments on a post, you\u2019d have no obvious way of knowing that fact. It\u2019s only when you style author comments differently than you do visitor comments, that they begin to stand out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Author comments can be made colorful, larger, bolder or whatever&nbsp;CSS&nbsp;styling you\u2019d like to apply. One of our favorites is to add background color to the entire area, so that it stands out from the rest, clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To add a background for only author comments, insert this code in the box:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>  .commentlist .bypostauthor {background: #cccccc;}\n  .commentlist li ul.children li.bypostauthor {background: #cccccc;}<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong>&nbsp;Change the color to whatever works with your theme. If you find this doesn\u2019t work, you may have to inspect element on an author comment and see what&nbsp;CSS&nbsp;classes have been used in place of .commentlist .bypostauthor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how_to_blockquote_text_in_wordpress_comments\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how_to_blockquote_text_in_wordpress_comments\"><\/span>How to Blockquote Text in WordPress Comments?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress comments, by default, will allow some&nbsp;HTML&nbsp;markup tags to be included.
