I've set Comment Form Settings to hide comment section for user roles, and it works fine.
But, I want to display something like below in that hidden section :
"You are not allowed to see the comments."
How can I do it?

Hi,
You can use the wpdiscuz_before_comments hook and display messsage. Just check if the current user has permission to view comments.

Thank you Asti.
Where should I insert the wpdiscuz_before_comments hook?
Please understand that I am a beginner in coding.

@asti Thanks, but custom messages are displayed not only to unpermitted users, but also to permitted users. I want to display custom messages only to unpermitted users.
Just check if the current user has permission to view comments.
The provided code is just an example. You should customize it to suit your needs and ensure it functions as desired.

@asti Thank you. I solved it by adding the following code.
add_action("wpdiscuz_before_comments", function ($post, $currentUser, $commentsCount) {
$user = wp_get_current_user();
$user_roles = $user->roles;
if (in_array(‘role01', $user_roles) || in_array(‘role02', $user_roles)) {
echo "Custom Message";
}
}, 10, 3);
