Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
The comments form is only displayed in the “txp:permlink /”. Where can I put a link labeled “Comment” in the main page? This is what I am thinking about:
<a href=”<txp:permlink />”>Comments</a>

Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
Hi Alexandre, great to have you back ;)
I’m not really experienced with comments but I know there’s a txp:comment_permlink tag, have you tried it? Maybe reading that page is a piece in the puzzle re your question.

Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
I’m not sure how this theme is organised and what article forms are used, but in a default installation the tags that display the comments are only in the single article form, and not in the article_listing form. That’s why you don’t see them on an article list page. I guess that if you copy the comment tags from the single article form to the list form it will do what you want.

Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
I just did some digging for txp themes and found this – very well aged – one.
After a quick test run (latest version seems to be here), I noticed, that the search form is not working. Just getting a blank article as a result page. Maybe some TXP updates broke it? Here is the original code:
<form method="get" class="searchform" id="searchform" action="<txp:site_url />" role="search">
<div>
<label class="screen-reader-text" for="s"></label>
<input type="text" class="search-input" name="q" id="s" />
<input class="searchsubmit" type="submit" value="Search" />
</div>
</form>
Another thing, I’d like to give a try, is adding comments. Any hints, what’s the best way to do it?

Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
Oh, that’s quite old and I just saved it from oblivion by putting it on GitHub. It definitely needs reworking in more respects than just this.
You can find plenty of tips in the default theme, which is also documented with inline <!-- comments -->. You’ll have that already on your site but if you want to review it all in one place, the v4.8 default theme is on GitHub. Here are txp forms specific to comments and search results and the search_display and search_input forms are here.
Also check the tag documentation. For example, here are the overviews of comment tags and search_tags.

Re: Minimum Theme for Textpattern
Thanks for the tip. The default theme might give me some ideas. What other issues did you notice?
My skills here are limited though, maybe someone can step-up and save that beauty from the dust?

By the way: Jakob provided a quick fix for the search, available here.
