Hi!

Maybe I do not have the patience, but I did not find any solution(s) to my problem.

1) Using Joomla 1.5.14 + !JoomlaComment 3.26
2) Using customization of SSlideBoth-emotop HTML with css-blackbg style
3) Altering HTML from the Joomla backend.
4) Altering HTML line #26 from:
<a href="{PREVIEW_LINK}#josc{id}">{PREVIEW_DATE}&nbsp;<b>{PREVIEW_TITLE}</b></a>
to
<a href="{PREVIEW_LINK}#josc{id}">{PREVIEW_DATE}&nbsp;{username}&nbsp;<b>{PREVIEW_TITLE}</b></a>
5) Expected result is not what the given is. I thought that "{username}" would be replaced by the comment authors nick. All I get is "...{username}..."

Question: Where am I doing wrong?
If not - is this a bug => kill it.
If not a bug - advise me.

Regards

The template HTML files are actually not even loaded as HTML, they are templates that are built in realtime. The problem you are facing is that the {previewline}{/previewline} code block of the template doesn't even look for the {username} block, it only does it in the {post}{/post} block. So you'd have to move the {username} str_replace code from the {post} process section of the comment.class.php file to where the {previewline} str_replace function takes place.

I can't look at it right now for you however as we are very close to a new release and I have never looked at JC 3.x (I only work on JoomlaComment4).

To move would result in loss functionality.
Extending functionality is desired.

You tipped me so I got what I wanted. Thank you.

Please move this post to another section and close it.

Code prior fix:
                    $previewline        = $this->_previewline;
/* {PREVIEW_LINK} */
                    $previewline        = str_replace('{PREVIEW_LINK}', $address, $previewline);
                    /* {PREVIEW_DATE} */
                    $previewline        = str_repl...
Code after fix:
                    $previewline        = $this->_previewline;
                    /* {username}       */
                    $previewline        = str_replace('{username}', $item["name"], $previewline);
                    /* {PREVIEW_LINK} */
                    $previewline        = str_replace('{PREVIEW_LINK}', $address, $previewline);
                    /* {PREVIEW_DATE} */
                    $previewline        = str_repl...
