comment moderation question

[brandel]

Is there a way to display the comment the user posted, yet placing
special emphasis on that comment that it is awaiting moderation? I ask
because it is quite bothersome when I have commenters that post the
same comment 5 times because they feel their initial comment was in
error.

Thanks

Yes, in the theme you can check the comment's status and if the comment is posted by the
current user.

Something like this, in a loop of all the comments:

$commenter= User::commenter();
if ($comment->email == $commenter['email'] && $comment->status == Comment::STATUS_UNAPPROVED) {
echo "Your comment is in moderation.";
}
