Plugin Discussion - Discussions

Back to main page

Is it possible to send info about new post to users who subscribed? How can I configure it with e-mail system or XMPP communicator?

I second that. Something similar to the folded plugin (folded) would be perfect. As it is now, the discussion box sometimes simply looks much larger than the article to be discussed.

You could provide a patch for such function and create pull request on github. Due to a lack of developers it's not possibly to implement all wishes. — lupo49M. S.

I second this question. Currently there are lots of pages listed with zero comments. Can I somehow list only pages with comments? Currently I use

{{threads>*}}

I have discussions embedded in my pages. A normal pages shows header, then the page content, then the discussion area, and below that I have the tpl for “profile”. The problem I am having is that a member logs in. So they see the discussion area without the email and name area, and the username shows up in my display below via the PROFILE.

IF there member enters a comment. The page refreshes. but now the URL shows; /doku.php and it doesn't show any comments, and the PROFILE area below is showing “login” as if the system doesn't know that the user is logged in. If i then click the SHOW PAGESOURCE link, the page source is shown, and once again the PROFILE shows that the user is logged in, and now the input box appears for discussion (the previous content is not there). But if I add comments again, it goes back to showing as if the user is not logged in. There seems to be some missing data exchange between the basic part of the system, and the discusson plugin. Is this know? and what can I do to fix it? Cheers! RichGriese@gmail.com

If I remove the ~~DISCUSSION~~ code the Input Form still appears.
One can get rid of it by manually deleting the data/meta/(path)/pagename.comments file - is this really how it is meant to be handled? ( Bernd )

I second the problem, had to remove the pagename.comments file also – especially nasty as it happens on the main start page, after I touched the config file. David – http://www.dkriesel.com
Correction: The comments file is even rebuilt at page reload. Seems do be some small bug. Any suggestions?

Same problem for me, as of January 11th, 2011. - Wan

And me, too, I was experimenting with the setup to decide if we wanted to implement, then changed my mind and removed all of the tags. Instead of deleting the “data/meta/(path)/pagename.comments” pages, I uninstalled the plugin for now. I presume I will have to manually remove the “data/meta/(path)/pagename.comments” pages from the filesystem, but do not have easy access. Is there a workaround? -Rick

It would be helpful to be able to enable discussions automatically for specific namespaces, instead of an all or nothing approach.

Adding ~~DISCUSSION~~ to the namespace's template seems to work fine

I had the problem, that even though I inserted ~~DISCUSSION:off~~ into a page, the discussion box appeared. The problem was solved by removing the .comment-file of the page. It can be found in the data/meta directory.

I do not like it, that the discussion plugin adds the IP-adress of guests to their username and this ip adress is visible to everyone! I think this is a serious privacy issue! Where in the code can I stopp this?

----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<dokuwiki@chimeric.de>
    (reason: 550 5.1.1 <dokuwiki@chimeric.de>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual mailbox table)

Apparently not: https://github.com/dokufreaks/plugin-discussion/issues/57#issuecomment-3274714

Posts are rejected when no email or an invalid email is set.

Is it possible to change this behaviour and to make E-Mail a non-required field?

Go to /lib/plugins/discussion/ folder end edit script.js file.

Remove this part of code or comment it:

if (isBlank(form.mail.value) || form.mail.value.indexOf("@") == -1){
    form.mail.focus();
    form.mail.style.backgroundColor = '#fcc';
    return false;
} else {
    form.mail.style.backgroundColor = '#fff';
}

this is a great addition. unfortunatly i must update manually, for whatever reason the plugin manager fails (latest dokuwiki). should the position of the Button be hardcoded? anyway, Thumbs UP
