Displaying the people who posted comments!

[randomling]

Hi guys,

I'm working on bug 4242 - including the poster of the comment in the preview page (helpful for people who might be posting comments as the wrong user, not noticed they're not logged in, wanted to use their OpenID, whatever).

I've managed to display the commenter's username - as long as they're actually a logged-in user of DW. However, anon and OpenID comments break the preview page now, because I haven't figured out how to display anon and OpenID there yet.

I was hoping to take my lead from the actual comments pages of entries, which show them just fine. But while I can find the page that deals with the comments page (/htdocs/talkread.bml) I can't actually find the place where it displays the username. It's a forest of code!

I wonder if anyone could show me the place where that happens? A copy/paste, line number, or thing to search the file for would really help me to get started.

Thanks!

ETA: Look, denise, I asked for help!

Hmm. Do you know what styles the preview page? I can point you to the S2 code for username printing (which hopefully I will be replacing talkread with very soon), but I don't know the bml/tt version

Yeah, it's a .bml page.
