Thanks a lot, it works perfectly ! I will translate it in French and make a backlink to your original post…

Just one question, how can we redirect the visitor to the original page where he/she wanted to write the comment ?

thanks for sharing such information. I have been able to customize the Word Press ‘Comment Error’ Page.

I looked everywhere for a solution to this. Thanks for posting it.

Just one little thing, I use a child theme and your code kept on defaulting back to the original function. I had to chnage this:

$errorTemplate = get_theme_root().’/’.get_template().’

to this:

$errorTemplate = STYLESHEETPATH.’/error_comments.php’;

It now references my child theme path correctly.

Just thought I would contribute that.

Thanks again

Thanks for the post, but I am trying this on WP 3.3.1 with a child theme based on Twenty Eleven and it does not work. It simply loads the normal error template, or if I comment out the last line “// _default_wp_die_handler($message, $title, $args);” it redirects back to the page and allows the post. Any idea why?

Thanks, Razz
