show if comment is in moderation

Question

How to display a moderation-message with a comment after posting a comment.

The workflow should be:

• post a comment

• wp thinks this one has to be moderated

• user sees his comment with a messe like "thx but you cannot see it since its in moderation"

• stretchgoal: this message should be visible every time the users visits (cookie?)

• the messages disapears when the comment gets deleted or approved

Is there a way to do this? Thanks

Answer 1

use the follow var: $comment->comment_approved and check for the value

<?php if (0 == $comment->comment_approved) { ?>
       <em><?php _e('Your comment must approved.', FB_BASIS_TEXTDOMAIN) ?></em>
<?php } ?>
