I installed this plugin a while ago for a teacher so they could solicite comments from their students on various Posts and Pages without all the other students seeing each others comments. This plugin was perfect! But it seems to break with most modern Themes. I am in the process of trying to rewrite the code to make it more “future-proof” but I was wondering if anyone who has used this plugin has found a suitable alternative that seems to still be maintained?

]]>This is Sofia again. I can get the html errors (incorrect layout and empty select list) to correct if I hardcode a user_login into the following code vs using the author name (display) ($author = get_the_author();)
$wp_users = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM {$wpdb->users} WHERE user_login = '".$author."' ORDER BY ID");
changed to
$wp_users = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT * FROM {$wpdb->users} WHERE user_login = 'test1' ORDER BY ID");
My user test1 is still unable to view comments on the site. perhaps this is an additional author vs user_login_id issue.

]]>This is Sofia again. I wanted to add that in the configuration page I do select “Whisper to an author of a blog post”.
I also wanted to mention that just below the checkbox on the comment page which is followed by “Whisper to blog author(s) (content will not be displayed after submission if you are not registered)”, there is an empty drop down select menu. And all of the information that is usually in my side bar (search, recent posts, etc) is now displaced to the bottom of the page and the formatting is all wrong.
Is there something I can do to fix this? I was looking thru the code (I am not a php programmer) and it seems that may be a missing ‘?>’ within the function “display_user_select”. Just a guess.

]]>Hi. How do you configure Whisper Comment Reloaded to have a nonAdmin post author to see whisper comments on their posts?
Here is what happens:
Thank you for your help,
