WordPress Paged Comments Plugin

Filed under: General — Keyvan @ 12:24 am

Paged Comments is a plugin for WordPress to allow comment paging. Useful for those popular blog entries receiving many comments, or a simple guestbook page within WordPress.

Features

  • Comment ordering: show latest comments first, or last
  • Specify number of comments to display per page
  • Enable paging for all posts and pages, or on a per-post basis
  • Give users the choice to view all comments on one page with a ’show all’ link
  • Specify the first or last page of comments to load by default
  • See paged-comments-config-sample.php for more

Installation for WordPress 2.5

If you’re upgrading from a previous version, skip these installation steps and read the upgrade steps.

  1. Download and extract plugin files to a folder locally.
  2. Read through and edit paged-comments-config-sample.php to configure, then save the file as paged-comments-config.php.
  3. Upload the whole paged-comments directory to /wp-content/plugins/. The plugin files should now be in /wp-content/plugins/paged-comments/.
  4. Enable the plugin through the WordPress admin interface. That’s it!

Optional Steps

  • To customise the template to work better with your theme: Open the plugin’s themes folder and find the subfolder corresponding to the WordPress theme you’d like paged comments enabled on (or if your theme isn’t listed, choose the ‘default’ folder). Upload comments-paged.php to the appropriate WordPress theme folder (found in [wordpress]/wp-content/themes/).

    For example, if you’re using the default WordPress theme, copy [paged-comments-plugin]/themes/default/comments-paged.php to [wordpress]/wp-content/themes/default/. (The plugin always tries to load comments-paged.php from your active theme folder first.)

    Make any modifications to comments-paged.php. The file is based on the comments.php file, so if your theme is very different it might be easier to copy in the necessary elements from paged-comments.php. View the diff report to see what you need to change.

    Paged Comments Can Create Duplicate Content?

    [...] I just came across a WordPress plugin called Paged Comments, which makes your popular entries which contain many comments look cleaner by putting them into different comment pages. The idea sounds pretty cool, as it will make your post look cleaner without endless list of comments, however, If you take a closer look at this plugin, you’ll realize that it creates lots of duplicate content.

    Levysoft » Come impaginare su Wordpress i commenti adattandoli al tema del vostro sito ed evidenziare quelli dell’autore del blog

    [...] L’altro giorno ho fatto una piccola modifica al mio blog in modo da renderlo più efficiente: ho installato un plugin che dividesse in pagine i commenti e ho modificato il foglio di stile in modo da evidenziare con un solo colpo d’occhio il commento dell’autore del blog (ovvero me) da quelli di tutti gli altri. Questa esigenza è nata dal fatto che alcuni miei articoli hanno centinaia di commenti (come Xbox 360 vs PlayStation 3 con 555 commenti e 999 inviti Joost tutti per voi con 166) che inficiavano notevolmente le prestazioni del sito durante il caricamento della pagina. Inoltre, tra tutti questi articoli, era necessario effettuare un highlight dei commenti dell’autore, in modo da evidenziare, tra le centinaia di commenti, le mie risposte. Il primo passo è stato quello di installare la versione 2.6.2 del plugin per Wordpress Paged Comments. Il suo funzionamento è veramente semplice, quello che forse è più complicato è la procedura per adattare il plugin al template del proprio sito. [...]

    Thank you so much!

    I had tried this plug-in before, but because the theme I’m using didn’t work straight away, I had given up.

    Had another look tonight and actually perused this site enough to be made to think about comparing the comments.php and comments-paged.php files together — EASY(ish)!

    Now, I don’t crash Firefox 2 on the Mac everytime I check my 250~ comment page :P

    Great work guys n girls!

    数据恢复: I’ve never used popup comments, but if I get time I’ll have a look and see if there’s anyway I can support popup comments.

    Nuetral: Version 3 should let you enable AJAX paging - I can’t give a release date though. It’s the most requested feature at the moment, but it’s also the feature that requires the most work.

    thin: The wp-print incompatibility has been mentioned before. I’ll try and look into it for the next version.

    Diwaker: I don’t know of an easy way to enable paging without altering the comments.php markup. By default, the plugin uses a modified comments.php file based on the one supplied with the default WP theme. You can see a side by side code comparison of the changes. If you open the comments.php file supplied in the sandbox theme you should be able to copy in the highlighted code and save the file as comments-paged.php in your sandbox theme folder. The plugin will look for this before attempting to load the bundled template (based on WP’s default theme). Hope that helps.

    If you do happen to create a version of the template for the sandbox theme, please let me know. I’d like to include one in the next release.
