显示已登录用户的评论总数（$ user_id = get_current_user_id（）;）

Question

I would like to see the number of comments entered by the user connected ( $user_id = get_current_user_id(); ). I have tried this code but it does not work.

<?php
global $wpdb, $post, $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
$userId = $current_user->ID;

$where = 'WHERE comment_approved = 1 AND user_id = ' . $userId ;
$comment_count = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT( * ) AS total 
                                 FROM {$wpdb->comments}
                                 {$where}");
echo $comment_count;
?>

Do you have any advice? What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

You can use the get_comments function provided by Wordpress to query all comments based on query arguments. Here's your code refactored to use this function:

<?php
global $current_user;

$userId       = $current_user->ID;
$comment_args = [
   'user_id' => $userId,
   // `count` is set to true to return the number of comments per UserID
   'count'   => TRUE
];

echo get_comments( $comment_args );
?>

See the docs here for full reference on the get_comments function.
