Then I can give you the specific css for that admin as it is *not* the ID but instead its the username that appears as a class in the css for the post.

NEWSCAST seems to change the comment background rotatory. Uff, my English is not so good ... in German: abwechselnd, egal, wer kommentiert, Autor oder User, wird der Hintergrund desjenigen Kommentars hellgrau, wenn der nächste Besucher kommentiert, wird der gleiche Kommentar des Autors weiß usw. You can see it live here in the demo: <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/themes/newscast/2010/03/06/why-doesnt-apple-rebrand-to-banana/" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/themes/newscast/2010/03/06/why-doesnt-apple-rebrand-to-banana/</a> The background colour of the comments is always changing there.

' comment-author-'.$id : ''; ?> <li <?php comment_class(); echo $author_id; ?> id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"></code></pre> and Devins code should work. colorit2 on "Highlight author's comments in NEWSCAST" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/highlight-authors-comments-in-newscast#post-80818 Tue, 23 Oct 2012 19:42:15 +0000 colorit2 80818@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, I have used this CSS <code> .commentlist .comment-author-1 .comment_content { background-color: #a882bd; } </code> ID 1 is my (author) ID, but it has no effect at all. Are you sure, that no PHP file needs to be edited for the class .comment-author-1?

You can use a bit of css to style specific author comments and no need to modify the php files. Try adding the following to your style.css: <pre><code>.commentlist .comment-author-yourid .comment_content { background-color: #a882bd; }</code></pre> Change yourid to your username and it should modify your comments.

Unfortunately I can't find any similar code parts in NEWSCAST's files, where I can add this functionality as mentioned in this tutorial at point <a href="http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/55-most-wanted-wordpress-tips-tricks-and-hacks/">9. Hightlight Author's Comment »»</a>. I have looked at loop-comments.php and comments.php, but I can't find any similar to change this. I have created my CSS for it: <code>.autorkommentar { background-color: #a882bd !important; }</code> The tutorials suggests to look in the comments.php for something similar like this: <code><li <?php echo $oddcomment; ?>id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>"></code> to replace it with this: <code><li class="<?php if ($comment->user_id == 1) $oddcomment = "authorstyle"; echo $oddcomment; ?>"></code> But I cannot find any code like the one I should search for. Can you please help me out? Thanks a lot.
