DiscussIT plugin

[Paul]

Hi

Sought a threading feature for comments and found this -
http://habariproject.org/dist/plugins/discussit/

Install DiscussIT at Habari-0.7alpha but it seems that plugin have an
incompatibility issue, I do not see any chanes after activation, maybe
with theme or other plugins...

Does someone use it? Is it works?

[Paul]

Maybe is there another solution to get threading comments?

Hi Paul

Sorry about the delay in responding to this, I completely forgot about it until you reminded me in another thread.

I've tested this plugin and it works.  What's not clear is how it works and what it's meant to do and how it does it.

Essentially, all the plugin does is link "@commenter_name" within a comment to the last comment by "commenter_name" being referenced by the @.

You can see it in action by doing the following:

1.  Comment on a post using the name "Bob".  Submit and approve the comment.
2.  Comment on the same post, but this time include @Bob in the comment and use a different commenter name when submitting the comment. 
3.  Approve the comment and then check the post again.

You should now see the "Bob" part of your "@Bob" should be a link to the previous comment made by Bob.

You can check the "parenting" and "childrening" of the comments by opening the comment in which you put @Bob in the comment editor and select the "Discussion" tab.

I'd say this whole plugin is far from intuitive and could certainly do with some enhancing and documenting. 

HTH

Oh, many thanks for explanation, but it's not that I'm looking for :-(

I saw another plugin: "Threaded Comment" - Threaded comment for
habari

http://gopherwood.info/2009/01/18/threaded-comment-0-0-1

But link doesn't works now, maybe you have a copy?


P.S.
Can you maybe add this explanation to the Readme.txt with the
DiscussIT plugin? It will help a lot to new users.

Sorry, I don't have a copy of this plugin. Try contacting the author of that site.  The site is still alive, just the link is dead.

Re updating the discussit plugin: I'll do it when I get a chance.  You may want to log a ticket at https://trac.habariproject.org/habari-extras referencing this discussion so I don't forget (or so someone else can make the change if they've got the time)
