Second. I don’t approuve hcgtv point of view. Cause TXP has a comment system. It’s a fact. Why don’t try to add some obviously and more usable features on it? If some people don’t use commenting for thier project (CMS). Ok you can avoid comments.

It’s not so much about avoiding comments, as it is opening up the code base to even more options. The core team is rather busy at the moment with basic core functionality, new parser, tags, etc. Comments is a subsystem that will not get enhanced, since it works as stated.

Here are the many comment extensions available to the Joomla! community. Pretty impressive list, some with impressive feature sets, don’t you think?

Maybe I don’t get it, but using an alternative comment infrastructure (IntenseDebate, cocomment, whatever) is not restricted by having a “native” comment system in the core, is it?

I don’t know of any restrictions in the core, do you?

How many alternative comment subsystems exist for Textpattern?

Oh, Matt beat us to it, nevermind ;)

But I’m glad that we have a lot of different kind comment plugins that add features to the existing commenting system.

Including antispam, akismet, non-preview protection, pagination, magic textile, editors and more.

And e-v-e-n more is coming in future ;)

On the public display of replies in context:

I consider the “hover over” approach as used here quite user friendly.

Re: Needed Feature for TXP 4.0.8

I vote for ability to manage categories not by one, but by groups, like it’s done with articles, files and others items of textpattern. For example, it will be very useful if you wanna make complex tree with a lot of subcategories, Currently i have to change theirs parent category by one…
