Using Comment Status Variable extension you are able to parse {comment_status}
variable inside {exp:comment:entries} tag pair.
INSTALLATION
1) Upload the directory “comment_status_variable” to the /system/expressionengine/third_party/
directory on the server.
2) Log in into Control Panel, go to Add-ons > Extensions, find in the list “Comment Status Variable”
and click “Enable”.
3) For this extension to work correctly a hack is necessary. Using FTP program go to
/system/expressionengine/modules/comment/ and download the file mod.comment.php
Find in this file in the function entries() the line
$this->EE->db->select('comments.comment_id, comments.entry_id, comments.channel_id, comments.author_id, comments.name, comments.email, comments.url, comments.location AS c_location, comments.ip_address, comments.comment_date, comments.edit_date, comments.comment, comments.site_id AS comment_site_id,
and add the string “comments.status, ” to it so that the resulting line would be as follows:
$this->EE->db->select('comments.status, comments.comment_id, comments.entry_id, comments.channel_id, comments.author_id, comments.name, comments.email, comments.url, comments.location AS c_location, comments.ip_address, comments.comment_date, comments.edit_date, comments.comment, comments.site_id AS comment_site_id,
After this the extension has been installed.
EXAMPLE
You can use the variable {comment_status} for displaying different things depending on comment’s status.
For example you can close inappropriate comments and displau the message “Comment has been removed” in case comment has status “closed”.
{exp:comment:entries entry_id="109" limit="50" orderby="date" sort="desc" paginate="bottom" status="open|closed"}
{if comment_status == "open"}
{comment}
{/if}
{if comment_status == "closed"}
This comment has been removed.
{/if}
{/exp:comment:entries}
