Comments, Order Asc, Desc

[Darfreak]

Hi friends,

I'm using Kalins pdf in Wordpress.

Where in the code below can I arrange these comments using "ORDER by comment_date DESC"?

I have tried for weeks and I keep getting blank pages.

I'll appreciate your input:

 

function commentCallback($matches) {
   
    if(defined("KALINS_PDF_

COMMENT_CALLBACK")){
      return call_user_func(KALINS_PDF_COMMENT_CALLBACK);
    }
   
    global $post;
   
    $comments = get_comments('status=approve&post_id=' .$post->ID);
   
    $commentString = $matches[2];
   
    foreach($comments as $comment) {
      if($comment->comment_author_url == ""){
        $authorString = $comment->comment_author;
      }else{
        $authorString = '<a href="' .$comment->comment_author_url .'" >' .$comment->comment_author ."</a>";
      }
     $commentString = $commentString .'<p>' .$authorString ." - " .get_comment_date(null, $comment->comment_ID) ." @ " .get_comment_date(get_option('time_format'), $comment->comment_ID) ."<br />" . $comment->comment_content ."</p>";
    }
   
    //get_comment_date('m-d-Y @ g:i A', $comment->comment_ID)
   
    return $commentString .$matches[4];
  }

What does function get_comments look like?

[Ch0cu3r]

Asumming get_comments is a wordpress function, then ;ooking at the wordpress documentation for the get_comments, you set the order clause in the argument string

$comments = get_comments('status=approve&post_id=' .$post->ID.'&orderby=comment_date&order=DESC');

// alternatively can be written as
$args = array(
    'status' => 'approve',
    'post_id' => $post->ID,
    'orderby' => 'comment_date',
    'order' => 'DESC'
);
$comments = get_comments($args);

Someone might be able to spot the problem, but I for one can't at first glance without knowing more information.

 

If I have problems in my code I like going section by section using echo "here"; exit;

 

Or if you think there should be data than echo the variable or print_r($yourdata); exit;

 

Like what does $matches show, what does $comments show?
