Display only certain amount of wordpress comments

Im trying to figure out how to in wordpress display only first two comments and hide rest and add button that reveal all these hidden messages if needed. Pagination give me only two msg per page and thats not im looking for. Can someone give me an idea how I can this achieve or point me to articles about this?
Thanks

here is a plugin that should do the job: https://wordpress.org/plugins/comment-load-more/
It is a bit outdated (3 years ago) so you should check if the code is still valid and compatible.
In " Settings > Comment Load" you should be able to set the number of desired comments to show first.
Indeed, in this guide - http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-easily-lazy-load-comments-in-wordpress/ - you will find how to lazy load all comments. Probably, with some modification, you can adapt it to your need as well.
Cheers!

// This function hide comments if is there more than two and add show more button
function fds_comments () {
var commentWrap = document.getElementById('comment-list');
var commentChilderns = commentWrap.children;
for (var i = 2; i < commentChilderns.length; i++) {
commentChilderns[i].style.display = "none";
}
commentWrap.innerHTML = commentWrap.innerHTML + "<button id='more-comments' onclick='fds_all_comments()'type='button' >Show all comments</button>";
}
//This function reveal all comments (used on SHOW MORE btn)
function fds_all_comments(){
var commentWrap = document.getElementById('comment-list');
var commentChilderns = commentWrap.children;
for (var i = 0; i < commentChilderns.length; i++) {
commentChilderns[i].style.display = "block";
}
}
// problem: comments hidden after submit
// solved: This additional code reveal comments after SUBMIT
window.onload = function() {
var reloading = sessionStorage.getItem("reloading");
if (reloading) {
sessionStorage.removeItem("reloading");
fds_all_comments();
}
}
// function used on SUBMIT button
function fds_all_on_submit(){
sessionStorage.setItem("reloading", "true");
document.location.reload();
}

How do I display an image file as part of an array with text in javascript?

Basically I am trying to find the most efficient way to simply add an image to each question. The text works fine if I just use that. But the images don't display and I am new to Javascript. Any help would be appreciated.
I have declared an array as follows: it should have an image for the question, an array of answers for the choices, and an answer.
var questions=[
new Question("http://path/hombre.jpg",["man","day","weather","time"],"man"),
new Question("http://path/day.jpg", ["year","thing","part/portion","day"],"year"),];
Here is the function that populates the questions in the app. There is more code in js and html of course however I would like to know if there is a command or shortcut i can use to display the image along with the other text as part of a question. Here is the code for the function that works fine if it is text only:
function populate(){
if(quiz.isEnded()){
showScores();
}
else{
//show question and try to put the picture here
var element = document.getElementById("question");
element.innerHTML = quiz.getQuestionIndex().text;
//Show Choices
var choices = quiz.getQuestionIndex().choices;
for (var i=0; i< choices.length; i++){
var element = document.getElementById("choice" + i);
element.innerHTML = choices[i];
guess("btn"+ i, choices[i]);
}
showProgress();
}
};
};

try this:
element.innerHTML = ('<img src='+choices[linkPosition]+'>');
element.innerHTML += choices[restOfContentLocation];
Or however/wherever you store the image path. I'm a bit unsure of where the problem is but try this.

Javascript that changes HTML code

Is it possible to make javascript to when you enter variables to add code to html..? I don't know English too good, so..I'm going to draw it!
Also, I don't want it to change everything, but I want it just to add that
info to the list..I have premade HTML page with linked CSS.
If you have any questions, please ask me, just help me.. :(
I know HTML and CSS, java..Not even a little bit.. :/
If you are here reading this, THANK YOU! <3

You have many options to add html to your page through JavaScript.
1) Simply create a div with an id
<div id="enterTextHere"></div>
2) Inside of your custom.js file or inside of <script></script>, you can use many different methods
Method 1 : Using innerHTML
var desiredElement = document.getElementById("enterTextHere");
desiredElement.innerHTML = "<p>I added text!</p>";
Method 2 : Using JQuery.append
$("#enterTextHere").append("I added text!");
I'm sure there are many more but without your specific code to reference this is the best I can do. Please use this link for your reference. It also has a lot of good information for the rest of your HTML journey. Enjoy! w3schools

Maybe something like this can help:
HTML:
<table class="table"><tr id="update-table"></tr></table>
<script>
(function(){
var updater = (function(){
function updater( options ){
this.table = options.table;
this.cells = this.table.querySelectorAll('.cell');
this.num_cells = this.cells ? this.cells.length : 0;
}
updater.prototype.update_element = function( index, value ){
this.cells[index].innerHTML = value;
};
updater.prototype.add_element = function(){
var td = document.createElement('td');
td.setAttribute('class','cell');
this.table.appendChild(td);
this.cells.push(td);
this.num_cells++;
};
return updater;
})();
window.updater = updater;
})();
var table, a, count = 0;
table = document.getElementById('update-table');
a = new updater({table:table});
for(var i = 0; i < 5; ++i){
a.add_element();
a.update_element(i,'info'+i);
}
</script>

Making dynamically added p elements clickable

I am trying to make the elements clickable. However on clicking any of the <p> elements there is no alert box saying "hello". Please could you look at my code and possibly point me in the right direction?
function createLink(text, parentElement) {
var a = document.createElement('p');
var linkText = document.createTextNode(text);
a.appendChild(linkText);
a.onclick = function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
alert("hello");
};
parentElement.appendChild(a);
var br = document.createElement('br');
parentElement.appendChild(br);
}
var txtFile8 = new XMLHttpRequest();
txtFile8.open("GET", "http://www.drakedesign.co.uk/mdmarketing/uploads/date.txt", true);
txtFile8.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (txtFile8.readyState === 4) { // Makes sure the document is ready to parse.
if ((txtFile8.status == 200) || (txtFile8.status == 0)) { // Makes sure it's found the file.
allText8 = txtFile8.responseText;
arrayOfLines8 = allText8.match(/[^\r\n]+/g);
for (i = 0; i < arrayOfLines8.length - 1; i++) {
createLink(arrayOfLines8[i], document.getElementById("previousResultsList"));
}
}
}
};
txtFile8.send(null);
The script parses a text file online:
http://www.drakedesign.co.uk/mdmarketing/uploads/date.txt
Which is updated weekly and has dates written in it like so:
19/04/16
12/04/16
...
My script separates the text document into each line and stores it as an array. A for loop is then used to show the dates on the screen in a column which looks like so:
The problem is that on clicking each date an alert box is not shown saying "hello" and there seems to be no response at all.
All help is greatly appreciated.

I solved the issue!!
The problem was that I had divs with opacity 0 that were overlaying my parentElement! sorry stupid mistake!

How to populate alt fields with the src of an image for all images on page

I am working on a site that has a page that will have a couple hundred thumbnails. I would like to have the filenames (the src) of the images populate the alt fields. So for example, I currently have the thumbnails as follows:
<img src="images/thumb1.jpg" />
I would like to populate the alt fields with the filename. So, the desired result would be:
<img src="images/thumb1.jpg" alt="thumb1" />
Is there a way I can automatically generate these alt tags using the images src?
Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for the help!

An untested, first guess, would be:
var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
var numImages = images.length;
for (i=0; i<numImages; i++) {
images[i].alt = images[i].src;
}
JS Fiddle demo.
Just to demonstrate how much easier this can be, with a JavaScript library, I thought I'd also offer the jQuery demo too:
$('img').each(
function(){
this.alt = this.src;
this.title = this.src;
});
jQuery-based JS Fiddle demo.
Edited because I'm an idiot...
I forgot to point out that you'll need to wait for the window to finish loading (or, at least, for the document.ready event), so try it this way:
function makeAlt() {
var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
var numImages = images.length;
for (i = 0; i < numImages; i++) {
images[i].alt = images[i].src;
images[i].title = images[i].src;
}
}
And change the opening body tag to:
<body onload="makeAlt">
JS Fiddle demo.
Edited to address the OP's final question:
function makeAlt() {
var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
var numImages = images.length;
var newAlt, stopAt;
for (i = 0; i < numImages; i++) {
newAlt = images[i].src.split('/').pop();
stopAt = newAlt.indexOf('.');
newAlt = newAlt.substring(0,stopAt);
images[i].alt = newAlt;
images[i].title = newAlt;
}
}
JS Fiddle, though I suspect there's a far more concise way...

To get the file name you could add to David Thomas's code...
var name = images[i].getAttribute('alt').split('/');
name = name[name.length-1].split('.')[0];
So that you end up with...
var images = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
var numImages = images.length;
for (i=0; i<numImages; i++) {
var name = images[i].getAttribute('src').split('/');
name = name[name.length-1].split('.')[0];
images[i].setAttribute('alt') = name;
}
(Also amazingly untested)

Here it is, with some simple DOM operations and a dash of regex magic:
var imgs = document.getElementsByTagName('img');
// This will extract the file name (minus extension) from the image's `src`
// attribute. For example: "images/thumb1.jpg" => "thumb1"
var name_regexp = /([^/]+)\.[\w]{2,4}$/i;
var matches;
for ( i = 0; i < imgs.length; i++ ) {
matches = imgs[i].src.match(name_regexp);
if ( matches.length > 1 ) {
imgs[i].alt = matches[1];
imgs[i].title = matches[1];
}
}
See JSFiddle for a demo.

var images = document.getElementsByTagName("img");
var count = images.length;
for (i=0; i<count; i++){
var src = images[i].getAttribute("src");
var path = src.split("/");
var fullname = path[path.length - 1];
var name = fullname.split(".");
var result = name[0];
images[i].setAttribute("alt") = result;
}

I think the real questions you should be asking is will all this actually help my SEO, because I assume that is the reason why you would like your alt tags populated?
There is some evidence that Google is getting better at reading Javascript, but will it run the scrip before it crawls the pages and add the alt text then index the page with that alt text and consider that alt text to provide additional value outside of the keywords it already found in your file names, especially considering that it rendered the script so it will probably know that the alt is just being copied form the file name. Or will Google simply index all the html and not even bother trying to run the javascript?
I would be interested to hear any additional insight others may have on this.
I personally feel there is a low probably that this will end up helping your SEO. If you are using a content management system you should probably be looking at how to add alt text via PHP by taking the variable for the page heading or title and inserting that to the alt text.
Unless you don't care about your SEO and are really doing this for text readers, then forget everything i just said.
