Like delicious bacon, this piece of Wordpress hackery is tasty! Mmmm....
Some of my posts have a lot of comments. I wanted to be able to browse my site and, should I stumble upon a suspect spam comment, be able to easily exorcise it. The method I used to use entailed trying to search for the specific comment in the Wordpress back end. This proved tiresome if there were a lot of spamy comments, especially if there were a lot on one post.
With a little research, some basic PHP I picked up, and a beer I coded up this little ditty which saves me a lot of trouble. Essentially, it provides me with a quick link to the comments of the current post I’m reading. There I can easily check off one or more comments as spam / edit them / do whatever. Simple and easy.
< ?php if (current_user_can('level_10')){ /*if user is an admin, then make the correct link*/ ?> <a href="<?php bloginfo('wpurl');?>/wp-admin/edit.php?p=< ?php the_ID(); ?>">Edit Comments</a> < ?php } /* end of if statement */ ?>
I marked the code up a bit so that hopefully someone starting out with php can use and understand it. Also make sure that if you are trying to cut and paste this into your Wordpress theme you arrange it so the question marks are beside the angle brackets without a space separating them.
Nota bene: the edit comment link only appears up when the admin is logged in.
You can choose where you would like to place this chunk of code, for myself, I added it to the sidebar of the single.php file.

Projekt. Transpiduum.
Das Projekt „Transpiduum“ ist die Präsentation aller Projekte der gleichnamigen Künstlergruppe im Internet. Anders als üblich, gibt es keine bestimmte Website als wichtiger Knotenpunkt der Selbstdarstellung, sondern alle Informationen werden auf öffentliche Blogs sowie Forenbeiträge ausgelagert und mit Stichworten (Tags) versehen. Durch die einzigartige Referenzierung des Namens „Transpiduum“ in den Suchmaschinen, kann der Leser alle relevanten Informationen im Internet finden. Es wird bewusst von einer direkten Anlaufstelle in Form einer Homepage oder eines eigens für die Künstlergruppe erstellten Blog Abstand genommen. Allein das Wissen der Leser über die Existenz der Gruppe ist Refernzierung genug.
Suchmaschine: Transpiduum

Link Building is one of the most significant aspect of the off page optimization process and is a major determinant of the popularity of your site. For search engines, back links or links pointing to your website indicate that you are ‘hot’ in the online marketplace.
