disable jot comments for certain posts

Good morning!

I am creating a site right now based off of the default install with sample site data in 0.9.6 and was wondering if it is possible someway to allow my admins (from the front end) to disable comments on certain posts. We want the capability to allow comments for some posts, but disable comments on others, similar to Wordpress.

Is this possible and how can it be accomplished?

Thanks in advance!

hi,

I don’t know if there is a built-in feature in Jot to achieve this.

I guess you could try to :

create a TV = hasComment
type=> option
option values => yes||no
default value=> no
Attach the tv to the required templates

Create a chunk containing the Jot Call : {{jotComment}}

Then in your template

add [*hascomment:isnot=`no`:then=`{{jotComment}}`*]

:-)

P.S: of course Phx plugin is required

Nice solution man!

I would add the phx statement to [+jot.html.form+], so older comments will still be available.
