The `notify_moderator` filter makes it possible to override the value for the `moderation_notify` option, which controls whether to send new comment emails to "site moderators", that is to say, the owner of the admin email for the site and the post author if they have the ability to modify the comment.
The `notify_post_author` filter likewise makes it possible to override the value for the `comments_notify` option, which controls whether to send new comment emails to the post author. If the post author is the comment author, default behavior is not to send the notification. Note: enabling or disabling notifications via this hook could also affect other recipients added via the 'comment_notification_recipients' filter in `wp_notify_postauthor()`, if hooked.
Passing a falsey value to either of the new filters will prevent notifications from being sent, regardless of their corresponding option values.
Adds tests.

[34561] instituted the policy of forcing pagination for comments. This strategy
was intended to avert problems when 'page_comments' is set to 0 - as it is by
default - and the number of comments on a given post rises into the hundreds or
thousands. By forcing pagination in all cases, we ensured that WordPress would
not time out by processing unwieldy numbers of comments on a given pageload.
The strategy proves problematic, however, because comment permalinks are
generated using the page of the comment. Forcing pagination for posts that
were not previously paginated would change the URL of all comments that do not
appear on the default comment page.
This changeset reintroduces the 'page_comments' setting and its corresponding
checkbox on Settings > Discussion. A number of tests, which were written after
[34561], are modified to work now that 'page_comments' will, once again, be
disabled by default.

This filter allows developers to modify the output of `get_page_of_comment()`.
As a side effect of this new filter, comment page numbers will always be
returned as integers. Previously, they would sometimes be returned as floats -
eg `float(2.0)` instead of `int(2)`.

The function now uses the following order of precedence when calculating
comment pagination: 1. the 'per_page' value passed in the `$args` array,
2. the 'comments_per_page' query var in `$wp_query`, and 3. the
'comments_per_page' setting from options-discussion.php. This change allows
`get_page_of_comment()` to return an accurate value before the main query
has been run.

Lazy-loading logic is moved to a method on `WP_Query`. This makes it possible
for comment feeds to take advantage of metadata lazyloading, in addition to
comments loaded via `comments_template()`.
This new technique parallels the termmeta lazyloading technique introduced in
[34704].

Previously, the 'page_comments' toggle allowed users to disable comment
pagination. This toggle was only superficial, however. Even with
'page_comments' turned on, `comments_template()` loaded all of a post's
comments into memory, and passed them to `wp_list_comments()` and
`Walker_Comment`, the latter of which produced markup for only the
current page of comments. In other words, it was possible to enable
'page_comments', thereby showing only a subset of a post's comments on a given
page, but all comments continued to be loaded in the background. This technique
scaled poorly. Posts with hundreds or thousands of comments would load slowly,
or not at all, even when the 'comments_per_page' setting was set to a
reasonable number.
Recent changesets have addressed this problem through more efficient tree-
walking, better descendant caching, and more selective queries for top-level
post comments. The current changeset completes the project by addressing the
root issue: that loading a post causes all of its comments to be loaded too.
Here's the breakdown:
* Comment pagination is now forced. Setting 'page_comments' to false leads to evil things when you have many comments. If you want to avoid pagination, set 'comments_per_page' to something high.
* The 'page_comments' setting has been expunged from options-discussion.php, and from places in the codebase where it was referenced. For plugins relying on 'page_comments', we now force the value to `true` with a `pre_option` filter.
* `comments_template()` now queries for an appropriately small number of comments. Usually, this means the `comments_per_page` value.
* To preserve the current (odd) behavior for comment pagination links, some unholy hacks have been inserted into `comments_template()`. The ugliness is insulated in this function for backward compatibility and to minimize collateral damage. A side-effect is that, for certain settings of 'default_comments_page', up to 2x the value of `comments_per_page` might be fetched at a time.
* In support of these changes, a `$format` parameter has been added to `WP_Comment::get_children()`. This param allows you to request a flattened array of comment children, suitable for feeding into `Walker_Comment`.
* `WP_Query` loops are now informed about total available comment counts and comment pages by the `WP_Comment_Query` (`found_comments`, `max_num_pages`), instead of by `Walker_Comment`.
Aside from radical performance improvements in the case of a post with many
comments, this changeset fixes a bug that caused the first page of comments to
be partial (`found_comments` % `comments_per_page`), rather than the last, as
you'd expect.

[34537] hooked `wp_new_comment_notify_postauthor()` to the
'wp_set_comment_status' when a comment had been approved. When performing
multiple actions on a comment in the same request (as happens in
`Tests_Ajax_DeleteComment::test_ajax_trash_double_action()`, and may happen
sometimes in real life too), and when one of those actions involves deleting
the comment, the `$comment_ID` passed to `wp_new_comment_notify_postauthor()`
can correspond to an already-deleted comment. The `comment_status` check should
account for this possibility.

This is part of the project of #33587.
Moving this particular message to the
'wp_set_comment_status' action has the added bonus that the notification is
sent after the comment status has been updated in the database. Previously, a
database error could lead to a case where an approval notification is sent,
but the comment status change fails for some reason.

`wp_allow_comment()` disallows a comment if it matches a comment on the same

developers to circumvent or modify this logic, making the duplicate check

`WP_Comment_Query` now fetches comments in two stages: (1) a query to get the
IDs of comments matching the query vars, and (2) a query to populate the
objects corresponding to the matched IDs. The two queries are cached
separately, so that sites with persistent object caches will continue to have
complete cache coverage for normal comment queries.
Splitting the query allows our cache strategy to be more modest and precise, as
full comment data is only stored once per comment. It also makes it possible
to introduce logic for paginated threading, which is necessary to address
certain performance problems.

[34268] introduced cache priming for commentmeta, enabled by default. To
ensure performance on single post pages - where commentmeta is most likely
to cause performance issues - we disable up-front cache-priming. Instead, we

`get_comment_meta()` is called on the page.

[34106] moved post author notification to a hook, and in the process, missed
the 'spam' check. This changeset restores that check.
To make unit testing easier, the notification callbacks have been refactored
to return values: false when various conditions aren't met (eg, approved
comments should not trigger moderation emails), and the return value of the
`wp_notify_*()` function otherwise.
