Locate the style attributed to comments

Look in your stylesheet (usually style.css file) style applied to comments. It should look like this:

comment {
background:#3F3F3F;
margin:0 0 6px;
padding:12px 12px 6px;
}

Create a second style for the author’s comments

Now you’ll create a second class that applies to the author’s comments. The simplest is to use the same style with changing the background color. Your style will look like this:

comment-author {
background:#3E3E3E;
margin:0 0 6px;
padding:12px 12px 6px;
}

Locate the loop to display the comments

Then open the comments.php file and find the loop that allows the display of all comments:
Inside is the function that calls the class that stylized comments.

Insert a condition

Just  add a condition for the class how author-created earlier is called if the author of the commentary is also the author of the ticket:

<?php
if($comment->user_id == $post->post_author) {
$class = 'comment-author';
} else {
$class = 'comment';
}
?>
<div>
<?php comment_text() ?>
</div>
