Is there a function which allows us to display the number of comments appearing on each article?
This should be displayed instead of "Write Comment"

example:

2 comments

(and this would be a button link)

If there's not such an option can you create it?

No, right now it is only possible for the read more button.

Of course we can create such function, but first you have to wait a little :)

Maybe you can make an early fix?

With a bit of donation? :P


Also, it would be wise to replace the "Comments" button with just a link-word. This can be an alternative option from Preferences!
That would be useful to reduce bandwidth issues and also seperate comments from "Read More" (which basically redirects you to the same link)

+1 vote for this useful feature. I prefer SSlideBoth-emotop template and the number of comments at the end of articles is the only feature I need.

Or even better, user should have the ability to choose between these two options.

Go to your template
Find the section {readon}
{readon}
	<div class='write_comment'>
		<a href="{READON_LINK}#JOSC_TOP" class="readon">{READON_WRITE_COMMENT} ({READON_COUNT} {READON_COMMENTS})</a>
	</div>
	{BLOCK-preview}
	<div class='comment_preview_container'>
		{preview-lines}
	</div>
	{/BLOCK-preview}
{/readon}
and change it to only
{readon}
	<div class='write_comment'>
		<a href="{READON_LINK}#JOSC_TOP" class="readon"> ({READON_COUNT} {READON_COMMENTS})</a>
	</div>
	{BLOCK-preview}
	<div class='comment_preview_container'>
		{preview-lines}
	</div>
	{/BLOCK-preview}
{/readon}

Sorry, is this from Administrator Panel or from FTP site? (and if it's from FTP which file is it?)

it doesn't matter :)
So, go to administrator -> joomla comment -> contetn settings-> layout - check what template you use.
If you wish you could use the option to modify it from the backend. If you wish you can then modify the template through FTP.

Sorry, I'm already at Layout tab and I don't know where to click to.

Standard template->HTML ?
Your customized template -> HTML ?

And each one of them has many options. What should I choose?


ps. I use yooevolution template ( www.gameworld.gr is the site)

Thanks m8
I wish everyone would have tutorial support like that!

ps. After choosing "Apply" I'm redirected to the original tab, not the "Layout" tab. Try to fix that if you want.
