Question

How to separate comments and pingbacks to the Twenty Ten theme? (default wordpress theme)

According to the functions.php

function twentyten_comment( $comment, $args, $depth ) {
$GLOBALS['comment'] = $comment;
switch ( $comment->comment_type ) :
    case '' :
?>
<li <?php comment_class(); ?> id="li-comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>">
    <div id="comment-<?php comment_ID(); ?>">
    <div class="comment-author vcard">
        <?php echo get_avatar( $comment, 40 ); ?>
        <?php printf( __( '%s <span class="says">says:</span>', 'twentyten' ), sprintf( '<cite class="fn">%s</cite>', get_comment_author_link() ) ); ?>
    </div><!-- .comment-author .vcard -->
    <?php if ( $comment->comment_approved == '0' ) : ?>
        <em><?php _e( 'Your comment is awaiting moderation.', 'twentyten' ); ?></em>
        <br />
    <?php endif; ?>

    <div class="comment-meta commentmetadata"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( get_comment_link( $comment->comment_ID ) ); ?>">
        <?php
            /* translators: 1: date, 2: time */
            printf( __( '%1$s at %2$s', 'twentyten' ), get_comment_date(),  get_comment_time() ); ?></a><?php edit_comment_link( __( '(Edit)', 'twentyten' ), ' ' );
        ?>
    </div><!-- .comment-meta .commentmetadata -->

    <div class="comment-body"><?php comment_text(); ?></div>

    <div class="reply">
        <?php comment_reply_link( array_merge( $args, array( 'depth' => $depth, 'max_depth' => $args['max_depth'] ) ) ); ?>
    </div><!-- .reply -->
</div><!-- #comment-##  -->

<?php
        break;
    case 'pingback'  :
    case 'trackback' :
?>
<li class="post pingback">
    <p><?php _e( 'Pingback:', 'twentyten' ); ?> <?php comment_author_link(); ?><?php edit_comment_link( __('(Edit)', 'twentyten'), ' ' ); ?></p>
<?php
        break;
endswitch;
}
 endif;

I was google and have tons results, but all in old version. Let me know if can be done.

It depends on the version of wordpress you are using, not on the theme.
