No Edit Comment Form Hook

[DavidMeade]

Hooks are provided to allow plugins to add custom fields to comment forms, however there is no hook to allow plugins to give admins to ability to adjust any such fields in the comment edit form.

To fix this, I added the following at line 51 of wp-admin/edit-form-comment.php (just above the advanced area of the form)

<?php do_action('edit_comment_form', $comment->comment_ID); ?>

DavidMeade, please leave updating the milestone to a core contributor. Please also attach a patch.

patched file

ok I uploaded the changed version of wp-admin/edit-form-comment.php

Sorry about the milestone .. it was a field I was presented with to select a value for so I thought I was supposed to select a value :-P

patch-ified #5741

This isn't to do with themes, this is for plugins to modify the admin comment editing form.

Patch refresh, not sure how many plugins would benefit from this.

This looks like a reasonable idea.

Could you possible knock together a proof-of-concept plugin.

i.e. one that adds an extra field to the comment form, processes it and displays it here

This is to make sure we are not missing any other necessary hooks

Thanks :-)

I think this is made obsolete by ​#13017 ??
