Hi there,

Can anyone tell me how I can separate the comments and comment form from the $content page variable. I'd like to have the comments appear in their own $comments variable in my page template file. I'm familiar with preprocess functions and so forth, just banging my head against a wall on this one. Any advice, or a point in the right direction is greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

I don't have an answer but I would like to know how to do this too.

I just found http://drupal.org/project/comment_form_above_comments and seems it could do the job with some modifications, maybe just taking some of the code from that module.

I looked at that module, but it doesn't change the comments being a part of $content, rather just re-orders the comments bit of it. Definitely along the right lines though. I'm currently trying to re-use some of the code to see if I can seperate out the comments from the content in template.php.

I'd like to find out how/where the $content page variable is built... that would be the ticket!

@mehuls If you know how to do this, maybe it would be better to post it here so we all know how to do it. Thanks

@mehuls - I get the feeling this might be a long shot - but any chance you could jot down your solution(s) as a reply in this forum post? :)

Hi there,

Upon further searching it looks like this module: http://drupal.org/project/comment_display will achieve what I'm looking for. I haven't taken it for a spin yet - fingers crossed!

thx
