TOPIC: Write comment as one link line and not as full box

If you get the full box to write the comment then you have opened the article. You have to go to the categorie blog layout or start page layout to see the line "write comment".
Do you understand what I mean?

Hi Daniel, nice to meet you and thanks for your quick reply.

Well, I'm sorry, but I'm really really really newbie with Joomla and modules and my English isn't so good. :0)

I didn't get what you meant. I'm sorry about that.

Did I open the article? Yes as an administrator I've created the article. Did you want to mean it? If I access the site from other computer withou being logged as adm or user, to Write a comment shows as the full box and not as a single line as shown in the Demo. I'm not sure if I've done in the right way. I mean, when I wrote the article, in the end of it I've added the code {joscommentenable}. Is it the right code to add in the article to show as single line or there is another code for single line?

Where do I find "Category Blog Layout" that you've mentioned? What do I need to do exactly over there?

Thanks in advance for your support.

Look here:
demo.compojoom.com/ - this is the start page. The start page shows a list with the last articles. And there you can also see the write comment button.

This here:
demo.compojoom.com/the-news/45-joomla-co...portal.html#JOSC_TOP

is the article page - you can see the article and all the comments.

What you need is a page from type - frontpage, blog layout and so on.
Now better?

Hi Daniel, here is the way I have by using the code {joscommentenable} into the end of the article:



And here, is the way I'd like it was:



So, how do I need to set at the end of the article to get this single line instead of the full form box? Can't I use the code {joscommentenable} into the end of the article for this single line I want to?

Thanks in advance.

if the article is open you will have the form there. And in your case the article is open.

Make a new link to this article, but instead to make the button of type = article, use blog layout.

Hmmm, almost we got... :0)

Should I use "Frontpage Blog Layout", "Category Blog Layout" or "Section Blog Layout"?

I've tried all them, but the ONLY problem is that I don't get to select the specified article (only one) that I want to show there. It is showing a link for several articles, and even I get rid of these links, it doesn't show the specific article as I get to set/pick when using "Article Layout".

Any tip how I would set just one article to show in the blog layout? Another different tip?

Thanks again buddy.

Well, yea. That is a problem. They show all the articles in a category. Perhaps you can make a new category only for this article?

Man! I'd like to have 1% of your wisdom and knowledge on these stuffs. :0)

It worked great Daniel. It's so annoying to be newbie. I'm sorry for bothering you so much today and thanks a lot once again for all your help.

That new category exclusive for this article was the right solution! ;0)

Have a great day!

Hi.

I've just changing comment system on my site (JomComment to !JoomlaComment - cuz your mod latest comments is giving me more abillity to customization).

And I have some problem with layout. How to make visible count of comments posted in article in category blog layout? Cuz now it's only link to write comment without number of comments.

Thanks in advance.

Well, it seems to me that your template use a background picture for read more. This background picture is too small for "write comments(numbre of comments) that is why you see only write, the other text is on the second line.
You should make the background picture for readmore bigger and this problem should disappear.

Thank you, you have right

This is a serious problem. Creating a category just for a single article is not a good answer. You need to put this single line link in ARTICLE LAYOUT view. Or give the user a choice, like JomComment does. Please fix this soon. The comment form is much bigger than most articles and it is not necessary for most users. Great script, which I will love when it's fixed. TIA

Steven, what are you talking about? DId you want to start a new thread or what? Article layout view and single line link. I absolutly don't understand you. Please post some screenshots with explanation.

Hey Steven,
I suppose that this comment is from you extensions.joomla.org/extensions/contact...89/details#rev-46495 Please try another template and you will see that the comment form can be hidden!

Hi Dan, in response to your email, I am talking about the subject of this thread. A single line at the end of the article linked to the comment box, and NOT the whole comment box displaying at the bottom of the article. I'm saying article layout view should be the same as you have it set up in blog and category views: just a single line at the bottom of the article, not a big form. At least give me a choice. Most users don't need the comment form, so to put that big form after every article is not necessary and a real distraction. I hope I explained it better this time. I like the way you've got the sliders set up but I'd really like a minimal link.

This, in article layout view:

Telling me to change templates or create a category for every article? Seriously?

try one of the mt slide templates.

Okay, JomComment doesn't do that either. I was looking at it in blog view. The sliders is a good workaround but since this is the second request for this feature, please consider adding to future versions. Thanks.

Daniel,

This can all be done in a template, right? If it can, I might look into creating it - but I don't really understand what the request is

Regardless, a new version was only recently released so this wouldn't be for a while at least.

Yep, you can style the template to look like the one of jomcomment. I don't think that it is such a problem at all.
Hm, Jonus if you wish and if you have time you can make the same template as jomcomment has These guys deserve to be punished for not willing to cooperate with us

Yeah, I could make one similar but better Also, the logo for their website - it's similar to a design I have for a Windows "Power tweak tool" software i've been working on. It's purely coincedence, but i'm going to grudge against them for it
