I'm creating my own WordPress Bootstrap theme and have run in to a strange issue.
When I submit a comment and it's waiting for moderation, comment_text()
does not output any <p>
tags.
I've tried disabling all the plugins and renaming my functions.php
file and the issue persists.
My code:
<div class="comment-content my-4"><?php comment_text(); ?></div>
Approved comment ( has <p>
tags ):
<div id="comment-10" class="comment even thread-even depth-1 media">
<div class="d-flex mt-2 p-2 border rounded">
<div class="flex-grow-1 ms-3">
<div class="author">Barry says</div>
<div class="small"><a href="https://example.com/test/#comment-10" class="text-decoration-none">September 11, 2022 at 8:06 am</a></div>
<div class="comment-content my-4"><p>Testing to see how this comment looks</p></div>
Waiting for moderation ( no <p>
tags ):
<div id="comment-59" class="comment even thread-even depth-1 media">
<div class="d-flex mt-2 p-2 border rounded">
<div class="flex-grow-1 ms-3">
<div class="author">Dave says</div>
<div class="small"><a href="https://example.com/test/#comment-59" class="text-decoration-none">October 5, 2022 at 8:14 pm</a></div>
<p class="card-text comment-awaiting-moderation label label-info text-muted">Your comment is awaiting moderation.</p>
<div class="comment-content my-4">ok how does this look</div>
Also, when I enable the subscribe to comments reloaded plugin, the comment looks like this:
<div id="comment-63" class="comment even thread-even depth-1 media">
<div class="d-flex mt-2 p-2 border rounded">
<div class="flex-grow-1 ms-3">
<div class="author">Ken says</div>
<div class="small"><a href="https://example.com/test/#comment-63" class="text-decoration-none">October 5, 2022 at 8:45 pm</a></div>
<p class="card-text comment-awaiting-moderation label label-info text-muted">Your comment is awaiting moderation.</p>
<div class="comment-content my-4">Check your email to confirm your subscription.
Ok this doesn't look right
</div>
Looking at the source code for the plugin, they also add <p>
tags for their message, but those are getting removed as well.
I'm at a loss to what the issue could be. Any suggestions?
I finally found the solution to the problem.
The WordPress function wp_kses
in Walker_Comment::filter_comment_text()
strips all <p>
tags by default ( <p>
tag is not listed in the "$allowedtags" array).
https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/6.0.2/src/wp-includes/kses.php#L379-L413
To solve this issue, I only wanted to allow <p>
tags in comments so I added the following function inside my Bootstrap_Comment_Walker extends Walker_Comment
class:
public function filter_comment_text( $comment_text, $comment )
{
$allowedtags = array(
'p' => array(),
);
return wp_kses( $comment_text, $allowedtags );
}
Everything is working as expected now.
