    I am having a problem with multiple if statements. I am using && but it seems to only work for the first statement. The code is like such:

    global $post;
$args = array( 'post_id' => $post->ID );
$comment = get_comments( $args );
$user = wp_get_current_user();
if ( 3 <= count( $comment ) && $post->post_author == $user->ID) {
    echo do_shortcode( '[button]' );
} else {
    comment_form();
}

    It basically stats that if there is less than 3 comments then show the comment form but if there is more than 3 and is the post author then show a button. The button shows but only if there are more than 3 comments. It doesn’t check if it is only the post author or not, like i want it to.

    After a ton of playing around with the code, I have found the solution.

    global $post,$current_user;
$args = array( 'post_id' => $post->ID );
$comment = get_comments( $args );
  get_currentuserinfo();
  if ($post->post_author == $current_user->ID ) {
    echo do_shortcode( '[button]' );
} elseif ( 3 <= count( $comment ) ) {
// blank
} else {
    comment_form();
}
