Site Notes | Threaded Commenting Works

I have been trying to get the Brian’s Threaded Comments plugin working with WordPress 2.3.1 for a while now. I finally sat down and traced through the HTML output of the original comments.php and the replacement comments.php needed by the plugin. As it turns out, you need to install the plugin as directed, activate it as normal, then go to Admin/Options/Threaded Comments and enter “wp-comments-post.php” (without the quotes) even if you haven’t setup a custom comments url (which I don’t). Otherwise, the plugin will not work.

So, that fixes that and I finally have Clusterlizard setup the way I want with Wordpress. I changed back over to Wordpress because I don’t want to keep dicking around with my own code. I’d rather spend the time writing stuff. I will, however, be making some changes to the threaded comments to get the reCaptcha plugin and the entry form to layout in a more pleasing way (I think the reCaptcha form should go above the submit button)… but that’s just my OCD at work so I’m not going to rush it.
