Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/26966 Post a follow up: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/26966 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: comment.module Category: bug reports Priority: normal Assigned to: Anonymous Reported by: jakeg Updated by: mindless Status: patch (code needs review) We have this problem on http://gallery.sf.net too.. the incorrect redirect url after posting a new comment on a long topic was the case I noticed. I did fix one link in the forum module, see patch here: http://drupal.org/node/31645 mindless Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mon, 18 Jul 2005 15:53:36 +0000 : jakeg When you, as admin, set the default number of comments per page, the links to those comments are not updated as they should be. For example, all links to individual comments still go to /node/x/#comment-x but comment no. x may not be on that page if x is bigger than the number of comments per page. Hence the link is wrong. This includes links from the 'recent comments' block and also very importantly after someone has submitted a new comment, they should be taken to their comment but if their new comment isn't on the first page then they have the same problem. This is a *big* problem if you have discussion/comment threads of more than about 100 posts (some threads on my site are over 300 posts) and hence you can't sensibly include them all on one page. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wed, 27 Jul 2005 20:44:29 +0000 : jakeg bump. I consider this to be quite important. Its definitely a 'bug' and not a feature request as when you click a link to a certain comment you expect to get to that comment, as the # in the URL would suggest. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tue, 09 Aug 2005 08:19:03 +0000 : jakeg bump - can anyone help? Its a major problem for me. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sun, 21 Aug 2005 06:58:32 +0000 : robertDouglass Changing this to CVS and widening the scope. When I set the comments per page at 10, in the CVS version, and then make a node with over 10 comments, I get no pager links to other pages of comments, but rather a useless "moderate comments" button. In short, in my install from yesterday, comments are foobar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 25 Aug 2005 23:49:03 +0000 : tostinni Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/comment_page.patch (1.02 KB) "When I set the comments per page at 10, in the CVS version, and then make a node with over 10 comments, I get no pager links to other pages of comments, but rather a useless "moderate comments" button.

I'll have a look at the comment link tomorrow. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 26 Aug 2005 22:49:52 +0000 : tostinni Regarding the block comment : "When you, as admin, set the default number of comments per page, the links to those comments are not updated as they should be. For example, all links to individual comments still go to /node/x/#comment-x but comment no. x may not be on that page if x is bigger than the number of comments per page. Hence the link is wrong. " In HEAD, it seems that links goes to /node/$nid#comment-$cid so I think there's a mistake here, it should be /node/$nid/$cid#comment-$cid if you want to see the individual comment. But if we want to see global comment thread and move the focus to the current comment, we should consider doing something like node/$nid?page=$pid&comments_per_page=10#comment-$cid $nid, $pid, $cid are variable defining the comment. What do you think about this ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tue, 30 Aug 2005 17:29:51 +0000 : tostinni Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/comment_page_0.patch (2.32 KB) Here comes a new patch, and for the moment, here will stop my contributions. I need help and review because I don't know how to fix the next bugs. What do my patch : - correct the pager_query function to see the list of comment as described in #4 - correct the links on the title of the comment when seeing the comments. Currently they are built like : /$nid#comment-$cid this doesn't work when a page is specified, so we have to look if URL get extra parameters like "page=1" to rebuilt the url link. So I modified phptemplate engine to change the comment theme function in order it takes these parameters. Now I'm still blocked because I don't have any idea how to solve the biggest problems in comment_block and about redirecting user after posting his comment. This is not so hard to tell, but I don't know a clean way to do this : In comment_block, the problem is that when we make the link to last comment, we didn't know the page where the post is supposed to be (this only happen when we have a threaded mode). So we should find it. Yes, but the problem is how... We should do an other query, like the one we made in comment_render and then find the position in thread of the current comment to add the page fragment to the url. It happens pretty much the same in the redirection after writing a comment. Any odeas on how we should make this ? 4.7 is coming... :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mon, 12 Sep 2005 21:18:14 +0000 : killes@www.drop.org The first patch is an obvious bugfix and shoudl be committed. I don't understand the rest of the probem, though. paged coments have been broken for a long time, so it would be nice to see them fixed.
