Comment invite code not working
Hi. Long time listener, first time caller.
I’m running 4.0.2 here: <a href=“http://pr.ag.ma/”>http://pr.ag.ma/</a>
It’s a fresh install and I’ve managed to get most things working how I want them. I’m having a spot of bother with the comment invite code: it’s not appearing inline with the posts. I can create comments successfully when linking directly to the article, the comment is saved and I am alerted correctly, it’s just the invite bit that’s not working, specifically if there are zero comments. I have seen a couple of posts here relating to the same issue and I’ve tried modifying the form code to what was suggested, but it’s not working.
If this is something covered in a previous post, then I would greatly appreciate a link to it, or a pointer in the right direction if it’s something new. I have read the FAQ (including <a href=“http://textpattern.com/faq/95/comment-display-confusion”>this</a>) but couldn’t find anything to resolve this specific issue, or am I missing something obvious?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Cheers.
Pete

Re: Comment invite code not working
Looks like you have if_comments
wrapped around your invite, which will only be true if the number of comments is greater than 0. Remove said conditional. You can use the wraptag-attribute on comments_invite to add some formatting. Or else you can use if_comments_allowed
.

Re: Comment invite code not working
Hi Sencer.
Thanks for your advice: I’ve already tried removing the conditional around the invite and it still wouldn’t work. I tried it again just to make sure and it’s still no good.
I’ve tried removing the glx_if_comments_count tag from both sides of the invite, plus changed the value to -1 to see if that would fool it into action. Unfortunately not.
I’ve also tried replacing the conditional with if_comments_allowed tag with no success. I’ll keep fiddling around to see what works.
Thanks again =)

Re: Comment invite code not working
I am talking about the article-form. I have the impression that you are talking about the comments-forum.

Ah yes! Now it makes perfect sense.
