Reply comment

Hello all;

As we know Pligg have the function "Reply" in comments, but if many people reply on one comment, it should be very long. So there is any way we can move the Reply link into even under the sub-comments? Eventhough it is the same form like if we click on the Reply in the parent comment but would be more covenient if there are too many reply comments right?

Thanks

I'm not sure if I am following you right, but let me take a stab at interpreting your question.
You think that by allowing people to reply to a specific comment using the reply to comment function, a lot of sub-comments will appear under that comment. Because of this legitimate second replies that aren't subcomments are being pushed down below the subcomments and are getting missed. So you want to have a way so that when people click the reply to specific comment button it posts their reply at the very bottom, not directly underneath the specific comment?

Digg has this issue, a lot of abuse from people who comment on the first comment of the story just so their comment appears near the top. I think the best way to fight it is to just remove the reply link from the comments alltogether and make users post to the form at the bottom.

Thx for your reply.

But please take a look at this picture

I believve that you want to add a "reply" link to the sub-comments.

Open /templates/yourtemplate/comment_show.tpl, and look for the line <div class="comment-info">

Modify the code as follows (modifications and additions are in red) :

<div class="comment-info">
  {if $comment_parent >= 0 && $current_userid neq 0}
   <a href = "javascript://" {if $comment_parent eq 0}onClick="var replydisplay=document.getElementById('reply-{$comment_id}').style.display ? '' : 'none'; document.getElementById('reply-{$comment_id}').style.display = replydisplay;"{else}onClick="var replydisplay=document.getElementById('reply-{$comment_parent}').style.display ? '' : 'none'; document.getElementById('reply-{$comment_parent}').style.display = replydisplay;"{/if}>{#PLIGG_Visual_Comment_Reply#}</a>
   <div id="reply-{$comment_id}" style="display:none;" align="left">
    <fieldset><legend>{#PLIGG_Visual_Comment_Send#}</legend>
     <form action="" method="POST" id="thisform" style="display:inline;">
      <label>{#PLIGG_Visual_Comment_NoHTML#}</label>
      <textarea name="reply_comment_content-{$comment_id}" id="reply_comment_content-{$comment_id}" rows="3" cols="55"/>{$TheComment}</textarea><br/>
      <!-- {if $Spell_Checker eq 1}<input type="button" name="spelling" value="{#PLIGG_Visual_Check_Spelling#}" onClick="openSpellChecker('reply_comment_content-{$comment_id}');" class="submit"/>{/if} -->
      <input type="submit" name="submit" value="{#PLIGG_Visual_Comment_Submit#}" class="submit" />
      <input type="hidden" name="process" value="newcomment" />
      <input type="hidden" name="randkey" value="{php}echo rand(1000000,100000000);{/php}" />
      <input type="hidden" name="link_id" value="{$comment_link}" />
      <input type="hidden" name="comment_parent_id" value="{$comment_id}" />
      <input type="hidden" name="user_id" value="{$current_userid}" />
     </form>
    </fieldset>
   </div>
  {/if}

It works.
