WordPress wp_enqueue_script( ‘comment-reply’ ) for custom theme

I’ve been following this tutorial and I can’t manage to get my Reply working as intended with the wp_enqueue_script( 'comment-reply' ); php function.

I’ve removed code which I think is irrelevant for what I wish to accomplish.

How can I accomplish the Expected Output based off this tutorial for Advanced Comments? and what should I be doing with my functions.php and single.php to accomplish it?

  1. The solution is actually pretty simple… after a little of reading the wordpress code for the javascript. I found the problem was in how each comment block was created.

    based off this function in function.php

    //this function will be called in the next section
    function advanced_comment($comment, $args, $depth) {
    $GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment; 
    $PostAuthor = false;
    if($comment->comment_author_email == get_the_author_email()) {
    $PostAuthor = true;}
    elseif($comment->comment_author_email == 'mordauk@gmail.com') {
    $PostAuthor = true;} ?>
    <li <?php if($PostAuthor) {echo "class='authorcomment' ";} ?>
    <?php comment_class(); ?> id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
    <div class="comment-author vcard">
    <?php echo get_avatar($comment, $size='48',$default='<path_to_url>' ); ?>
    <div class="comment-meta"<a href="<?php the_author_meta( 'user_url'); ?>"><?php printf(__('%s'), get_comment_author_link()) ?></a></div>
    <small><?php printf(__('%1$s at %2$s'), get_comment_date(),  get_comment_time()) ?><?php edit_comment_link(__('(Edit)'),'  ','') ?></small>
    </div>
    <?php if ($comment->comment_approved == '0') : ?>
    <div id="moderation"><?php _e('Your comment is awaiting moderation.') ?></div>
              <?php endif; ?><br />
            <div class="comment-text">  
              <?php comment_text() ?>
            </div>
              <div class="reply">
                 <?php comment_reply_link(array_merge($args, array('depth' => $depth, 'max_depth' => $args['max_depth'])), $comment->comment_ID) ?>
                 <?php delete_comment_link(get_comment_ID()); ?>
              </div>
      <div class="clear"></div>
          <?php } ?>
    

    I found the error was with

    <?php comment_class(); ?> id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
    

    By simply removing the “li-” in the id so it forms id=”comment-“

    The reply form now moves on reply.
