Comments/descriptions

Post by cousinjay »

So now that I have been pointed to the tiny options button, I'm able to turn on comments. Problem is, it appears that a user can only enter one comment.

Question 1: Is there a way to get rid of the limit on comments.

Questions 2: How can I show the description and comments off to the side of the photo similar to the way facebook displays pictures.

If this can't be done in phoca, is there a plugin that may help? Last option (G-d forbid) is there a replacement to phoca that will do what I want?

Hi,

2) you can e.g. display it with help of Multibox feature:
https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... 7-multibox

1) to display or add more comments for the user, you can enable external comments: JComments or Facebook comments :idea:

ok, so if I understand, to get more than one comment in a thread, I need to install and external program? Ccomments doesn't seem to be an option. I'll take a look at jcomments.

Meantime, I activated multibox (I thought) but it still doesn't seem to be working. I selected yes to enable it and specified a couple of fields to display, but they are not showing up. kept the defaults for all the others.
