Customize output of comment form fields

[michaeloeser]

I need to customize the output (exactly the labels) of the comment form fields and I´m getting nuts with it.

This is what I have found and adopted and it works:

// Customize The Comment Form
add_filter( 'comment_form_defaults', 'alfons_custom_comment_form' );
function alfons_custom_comment_form($fields) {
    $fields['comment_notes_before'] = '<p>*Die hinterlassenen Nachrichten sind ausschlie&szlig;lich Herrn Alfons Horn zug&auml;nglich.</p><p><small>Mit * markierte Felder m&uuml;ssen ausgef&uuml;llt sein.</small></p>'; 
    $fields['title_reply'] = 'Ihre Nachricht an Alfons Horn';
    $fields['comment_field'] = '<p class="comment-form-comment"><label for="comment">Ihre Nachricht *</label><textarea id="comment" name="comment" cols="45" rows="8" aria-required="true"></textarea></p>';  
	$fields['label_submit'] = 'Nachricht senden';
    $fields['comment_notes_after'] = '';
	
    return $fields;
} 

I also want to rename the "Name" to "Name(s)" but that doesn´t work.
And I want to remove the URL field (that works) and replace it by a simple text field for "Company"

Any help is greatly appreciated.

I think this will help you to edit the labels and placeholders, I tried it in my Sample theme and it worked ok.
