[CMS] Use original thread for comments
Developer Last Online: Sep 2014
As of 4.1.11 this functionality is included in vbulletin. So you no longer need this mod.
What does this do? This is a really simple hack that sets the thread for article comments to be the original thread for any thread that is promoted to an article. What can I use it for? This mod has two major uses: 1. If you have a wealth of information in your forums and you want to promote it into articles, this mod allows you to retain the rest of the thread as comments in the cms while adding any new comments as replies to the thread; essentially allowing it to function as both a forum thread and a CMS article. 2. If you want to use multiple fourms for CMS comments. This is a fairly none obvious use case, but probably a popular one. If you have three sections in your cms (for example) and want each section to feed into its own forum, the current cms dosn't allow you to do this. With this mod installed, you can. Instead of creating your new article directly in the cms create it in the forum you wish to use for comments. Write your article as the first post of the thread and promote it to a cms article. Fill out the extra information needed (eg publish date) and save. Comments will be saved into the original thread, in the forum you created it in. Installation Vb 4.0.1 and later 1. Import product Uninstallation 1. Disable the plugin "set thread id" Full uninstallation 1. Move threads that have been promoted to articles into the vbcms comments forum. 2. COPY the threads back to their original forums 3. Remove product Steps 1 and 2 are needed to retain cache functions on the comments threads. Without them new comments will not appear on the article.

That would be a fix, however it means that when users post to the original thread through the forums; the cache isn't cleared and new comments aren't added to the article.

I have posted to both the original thread and the article and the post still shows on both sides except that the text is hidden in the CMS. Smilies always show.

Mine works fine except for the tons of double posting everywhere. No blank text.

Is anyone getting the double posts AND blank comments?? It's weird because I only have the blank comments but not double and triple posts.

I'm struggling to reproduce the double/triple posts; it could be a conflict with another mod; what else do people have installed?

Carnage, I have SStabs vbsoporte, auto-backup, and vsa Chatbox installed, along with dartho's mobile styles. I can't tell you specifically if any of those are causing conflicts, but I can't tie any issues to them. Upgrading to 4.0.5 helped a great deal with my issues, but I was still seeing a lot of error messages on post and the occasional double. Turning off your mod alleviated this problem. I have a hard time living without it, but have managed to replicate the functionality by turning off the vb CMS and using a vbadvanced portal instead.
Only other tidbit I can contribute is that the double posting happens FAR more often in Internet Explorer 8 than in any other browser, according to my user reports. It seems to happen much less frequently in Mozilla and Webkit browsers, but doesn't completely go away. |

How about the blank posts? Can we at least get a resolution for that?
