How to highlight author comments?

    am not sure how to go about doing this but I want the comments that I make in my own posts to be distinguished from the comments that other people make. Is there a way to go about doing this? Thank you for your help in advanced.

    Thanks for posting about this! I found that there’s a bug in the Origin theme preventing the comment classes from displaying normally, and you need those in order to highlight author comments using custom CSS. I reported the bug to the theme team.

    Once the problem has been fixed, you should be able to style comments by the post author using custom CSS like this:

    .bypostauthor {
    	background: yellow;
    }

    Change “background: yellow” to something else.

    Someone will reply back here to let you know as soon as the problem with comment classes in the Origin theme has been fixed.

    Thank you for explaining this to me! I thought that this was just not something that the theme itself came with so I was wondering if I could work around that. Turns out asking questions does pay off.

    Thanks again and I hope this gets fixed soon!

    We fixed the bug that Sheri reported, so you should be able to use the CSS outlined above.

    Enjoy the theme!
