How do I changing comment success message
I need to change the message that says “Thank you for adding your comment. Your comment is pending moderation. It will appear after it has been approved.”
Where can I find this?

In the database: txp_lang table.

FireFusion
Els is right. The strings you are looking for are called ‘comment_posted’ and ‘comment_moderated’.

This I will try later to alter the text message. Another question I’m having is how to style the output text? My intention is to create a shaded message box but where do I insert the <div> tag in what form/page?
Right now, the default submit-success message looks as if it’s another ordinary paragraph to the end of the article.
Thanks for help!

<p id=“txpCommentInputForm”>Thank you for adding your comment.</p>
You have a hook there, could that help you? :)

Re: How do I changing comment success message
Thanks for quick reply! But can someone help me understand the logic here? I mean the message can only be changed from DB end. How would you expect it to parse into the p tag with the specific id=txpCommentInputForm? In fact, if such a message cannot be changed in any page/form template, how would you expect CSS to work with it since CSS is all assoicated with either a page or form…
I don’t think there’s magic here, is there? :)

Re: How do I changing comment success message
Why don’t you have a look at the page’s source code when the posted message is displayed? The id is there, so you can style it :)
