Joomla Components and Professional Joomla Templates

When?

soon...

Hi,

What I would really like to see is:

Buttons on the comment heading for sorting by Date by userrs (newest/oldest) and Votes (most/least). The default sorting should also be an option for admin (eg. if I like my sites comments to be sorting by most votes by default).

Replies collapsed by default only showing the main comment, and users can open the replies if they like. (less space and chaos).

Good luck with version 4 and best wishes!

Best regards,

About your first suggestion "sorting buttons" - nice feature, but it is not ready for 4.0. It will make it in a next release.

About your second suggestion:
you can make this already. Just use another template

"Yes, it is true! In alpha3 there is an experimental advertisement feature. It was not very good implemented from my side. It is turned per default on, but you are able trough the backend to turn it off."

what steps do i take to turn it off. I love the import feature and want to use your mod but my client will not accept this feature being turned on.

Here you have more info on how to disable them in alpha3:

will the new version be set up so that integrating it into other components will be as easy as with Jcomments or Jomcomments?

Hey cassy, what is so difficult now? You just have to unable the plugins for the components in the backend.

Here an example for docman:

aha! now looks to me like I first need to write a plugin for remository before I can integrate?

hmm! just what I don't consider as attractive. the aforementioned JComments & Jomcomment only require adding a couple lines to remository or any other component for integration. this commenting component however appears to be requiring additional code to being added to the commenting component as well, i.e writing up a plugin

JComment and JomComment are therefore much more attractive. sorry!

We don't have any plugin for remository right now - nobody asked for it in the forum(so far I can remember). That is why there seems to be additional work, but if we have this plugin(as we have one for docman) then the only thing you had to do was - enable the plugin, add 2 lines to the repository template and ready to go.

right! any chance a plugin for remository can be added then? would I need to post something in the forum for that purpose?

I've just added your wish to the wish list:

I don't know when I can start to work on this. I'm currently working alone and there are a lot of things to do for the beta1 and other projects. This is definitely something that we will have

thank you!

Maybe Editor's Note influenced by hidden H4 element?

Well, the h4 element is per default not hidden, but visible!

Read this:
http://compojoom.com/faq/28-remove-qpowered-byq-.html

Yes. This one is really visible and ok:

but this one seems like hidden:

Am i wrong? (!JoomlaComment4.0.0 alpha3; joscomment/comment.class.php; line 410)

#poweredby { display:none; } after parsing invokes the insertHiddenCopyright() function.

This function is never called if the user have not hidden the logo!

ok then :-) But here and here and on your site both of them displayed, even if CSS rule #poweredby {display: none} does not exists:

Is it a bug?

Yep, seems like bug to me. Will try to fix this for beta1.

Added to redmine:

By the way, hidden div#poweredby with hyperlink inside could be even worse for yandex.ru. I'm clueless.
Is it acceptable to completely disable rendering of div#poweredby?

Of course! If it is hurting your web site! I also think that with the next version I will remove the inserthidden version. Who cares? If you satisfied with the product, then you will show the link to our page

Go to the comment.class.php - inserthiddenlink is invoked in one place, just remove it and it should not display anymore.
