OK guys, JA Wall is inspired by Pinterest. Great. So I’d love to see is something that’s now missing, but will fit JA Wall naturally – Comments icon/counter just next to Hits at the bottom of every item box. Please see attached image and do tell me this is possible 🙂 be it with JA Comment or K2 comments – makes sense to show comments count there, right? You know the way Pinterest shows Likes, Comments and Repins right at the same spot under every item picture.

And, of course it could be a link to the comments, like I have such now on my Teline IV setup where I use JA Comment.

Thanks and Regards,
Martin

Oh my, I haven’t even looked at K2 items – they show coments counter there – GREAT – and it’s linked – AWESOME. So it appears only Joomla content items do now show comments count.

So now the only question is if JA Comment icon/link can be placed there.

Thanks!

Hi and yes I’ll be happy to, but I think it will be easier for you to look at the attached image (above or the new one I’m attaching here) – I placed a small comments icon to illustrate thinking this function is not available.

Later I saw that K2 items actually show Comments: # in the item footer next to Hits.

I also saw that Row 23 in template.css shows

.article-info,
.article-hit,
.jac-add-button {

These are the elements that show in every item/box footer. So seing jac-add-button there I thought JA Comment ADD Button icon can be placed like in the picture I’m providing above and of course to be a link so once you hit it you go to the comments inside the article/K2 item.

Please let me know if my explanation is good and thanks for your support.

P.S. – here one more image for more details:

Please ignore the above post – for some reason I haven’t had JA Comment installed.

So here what – see attached image here – JA Comment icon and add comment show at K2 items, but right over the intro text. How do I place them next to hits in the footer ot the item? My idea is that I feel it’s more natural to comment once you’ve seen at least a little bit of text (like the intro), not before – like it’s set with K2 Comments counter/link that you guys put there in the item footer.

Plus it has the same issue as I had with Teline IV – when you click JA Comment Add comment it opens the K2 item but at the begining – does not anchor to the JA Comment box – I am not sure what the fix what, but here the thread

Thanks

Actually I had a ticket before and here the sollution:

<blockquote>I changed all “ja-contentwrap” anchors in “/components/com_jacomment/themes/default/html/comments/getbutton.php” file
from:
<?php echo $links.”#ja-contentwrap”; ?>

to:
<?php echo $links.”#jac-wrapper”; ?>

When you go to article item page, the page will be scrolled to comment form.</blockquote>

But you guys could fix this in the component for everyone 🙂

Thanks

OK guys, so looking at my Post #5 don’t you want to help me :)?

It’s just to put the JA Comment icon where you otherwise you put K2 comments icon in the item footer next to item hits (like in Showcase view)

As I really prefer JA Comment having much more features than K2 Comments 🙂

Sorry for the delay just because we were not working at the weekend, i see that you are wanting to move the Ja comment icon to the item footer area, it can consider a custom work but if you pm me your exact k2 url where those icons are being seen, the admin account as well as the FTP info I will try to do it for you.

If I’m not mistaken, there’s a simple fix or hack for that. Go to com_k2/ja_wall/category_item.php, look for

<div class="comments-link">

There you remove the block of code that’s generating the K2 comment anchor and replace it with the code from ja_social that’s generating the “Add Comments” link. Because there’s a if parameter that triggers the code, see below

<?php if($this->item->params->get('catItemCommentsAnchor') && ( ($this->item->params->get('comments') == '2' && !$this->user->guest) || ($this->item->params->get('comments') == '1')) ): ?>

You will need to enable comment anchor in the K2 category to get the “Add Comments” to display. Or alternatively, you can just delete that if parameter and the “Add Comments” should show up on all K2 category items.

There I was, looking exactly at this code – Thanks for confirming my thoughts – now I need to find the code for Add Comments link and put it there
