Moving comment count from post meta to post footer

[seyopa]

Greetings,

We would like to move the comment count from the post meta to the post footer. I have already removed the comment count from the post meta by copying the kleo_entry_meta function and commenting out the comments code.

I tried overriding the post-content-small.php and adding the comment code there, but it’s not showing up. Am I missing something? I used the kleo posts visual block to add the posts to the page.

Thanks.

There’s no need to override core code to remove the comment count from the meta section. You just need to remove it from Theme Options > Blog > Meta.

post-content-small.php is for the blog listing. Single blog pages use single.php.

Perfect. Thank you. I turned off the categories and comments in the post meta. The page I’m working on is actually a blog listing. I figured out that it was post-content-masonry.php I needed to override. I was able to change ‘Read more’ to ‘Show more’ but I still can’t get the comments to show up in the footer. Here’s what I added to the post footer after do_action(‘kleo_post_footer’);:

//comments
$meta_list = array();
$author_links = ”;
$meta_elements = sq_option( ‘blog_meta_elements’, $kleo_config[‘blog_meta_defaults’] );
$meta_list[] = ‘<small class=”meta-comment-count”><a href=”‘.
get_permalink().’#comments”>’.get_comments_number() .
‘ <i class=”icon-chat-1 hover-tip” ‘ .
‘data-original-title=”‘.sprintf( _n( ‘This article has one comment’, ‘This article has %1$s comments’, get_comments_number(), ‘kleo_framework’ ),number_format_i18n( get_comments_number() ) ).'” ‘ .
‘data-toggle=”tooltip” ‘ .
‘data-placement=”top”></i>’ .
‘</small>’;

Is there maybe a filter, like after_kleo_post_footer?

Thanks!

There’s not. But I dont see that you are echo’ing anything out. You’re assigning the comments to a variable, but you’re not displaying them.

Hi Sharmstr,

Thanks for the reply. Sorry – I was tired and had just copied the comment stuff from your post meta code. When I looked at it again today, I realized that I was just appending a post meta array and not doing anything with it. I got it working:

COPY CODE

<a href="<?php get_permalink()?>#comments">,
	<i class="icon-comment-empty" data-original-title="<?php echo sprintf( _n( 'This article has one comment', 'This article has %1$s comments', get_comments_number(), 'kleo_framework' ),number_format_i18n( get_comments_number() ) )?>" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top"></i>
	<?php
		echo get_comments_number();
		echo sprintf( _n( ' comment', ' comments', get_comments_number(), 'kleo_framework' ),number_format_i18n( get_comments_number() ) );
	?>
</a>

No worries. Glad you got it sorted.
