Hello all,

I'm trying to figure out how to display Wordpress comments in a modal window. Any ideas would be welcome.

Cheers,

D.

They should be all wrapped in a DIV to begin with, so just display: none; that DIV. Then have a link that when clicked triggers FancyBox on that DIV.

Chris,

Thank you for the input. So simple. I'm giving it a try first thing in the morning.

Cheers,

OK. Two months later, I'm finally getting around to implementing this. I'm using NyroModal, with the same effect. What I've done is added comments_popup_script to the head - and at the bottom, I have:


&lt;div class=&quot;comments&quot;&gt;
&lt;?php comments_popup_link('No Comments', '1 Comment', '% Comments', 'nyroModal comments-link', ''); ?&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

The modal window works just fine, but the comment box still pops up, along with it. Any ideas?

Stripped down example here: http://test.youdontexist.com/

Cheers,

Use the regular comments link instead of the popup link. It defeats the purpose of using a modal box if you're also creating a new popup window.
