Quip not displaying comments in front end!

Hi,

I’m hoping someone can help as I am a bit stuck. I’m a newbie so please be nice!

I have set up a test blog site by following the tutorial at: http://rtfm.modx.com/display/revolution20/Creating+a+Blog+in+MODx+Revolution everything seems to work and I can even post comments and see them in the manager but they are not displaying in the blog itself or and the comment count is showing as 0 everywhere on the front end!

The blog post template code is:

[[$pageHeader]]
<div id="content" class="blog-post">
<h2 class="title"><a href="[[~[[*id]]]]">[[*pagetitle]]</a></h2>

<p class="post-info">
Posted on [[*publishedon:strtotime:date=`%b %d, %Y`]] |
Tags: [[*tags:notempty=`[[!tolinks? &items=`[[*tags]]` &key=`tag` &target=`48`]]`]] |
<a href="[[~[[*id]]]]#comments" class="comments">
Comments ([[!QuipCount? &thread=`blog-post-[[*id]]`]])
</a>
</p>

<div class="entry">
<p>[[*introtext]]</p>
<hr />
[[*content]]
</div>

<div class="postmeta">
[[*tags:notempty=`
<span class="tags">Tags: [[!tolinks? &items=`[[*tags]]` &key=`tag` &target=`48`]]</span>
`]]
<br class="clear" />
</div>
<hr />
<div class="post-comments" id="comments">[[!Quip?
&thread=`blog-post-[[*id]]`
&replyResourceId=`123`
&closeAfter=`30`
]]



[[!QuipReply?
&thread=`blog-post-[[*id]]`
&notifyEmails=`[email protected]`
&moderate=`1`
&moderatorGroup=`Moderators`
&closeAfter=`30`
]]
</div>
</div>
[[$pageFooter]]


The blog post chunk is:
<div class="post">
<h2 class="title"><a href="[[~[[+id]]]]">[[+pagetitle]]</a></h2>
<p class="post-info">Posted by [[+createdby:userinfo=`fullname`]]
[[+tv.tags:notempty=` | <span class="tags">Tags:
[[!tolinks? &items=`[[+tv.tags]]` &key=`tag` &target=`48`]]
</span>`]]</p>
<div class="entry">
<p>[[+introtext]]</p>
</div>
<p class="postmeta">
<span class="links">
<a href="[[~[[+id]]]]" class="readmore">Read more</a>
| <a href="[[~[[+id]]]]#comments" class="comments">
Comments ([[!QuipCount? &thread=`blog-post-[[+id]]`]])
</a>
| <span class="date">[[+publishedon:strtotime:date=`%b %d, %Y`]]</span>
</span>
</p>
</div>

You can see in the code the blog home page is id 48! have i missed something?!

Cheers

I’ve never used threaded form, but is this resource ’123’ really exist ?

Hi tkfm,

Thanks for the reply. Its actually set to 2 now which is the "Reply to Thread" page with the following code on:

<h2>Reply to Thread</h2>
[[!Quip]]


[[QuipReply]]

Quip wont actually output anything in the front end however the comments are all there in the back end!

regards,

Sam

Thanks for the reply splittingred,

I’m sure that it isn’t a bug and something has just been missed! Any chance I could pay you to log in and have a look?

Do you have a URL we can look at? I had a similar issue and it was due to the default CSS that comes built-in to QUIP that was causing it to not be visible on stage - this class meant that it did not render in Chrome of Safari... Would render in FF and Opera though... (all on a Mac btw)

ol.quip-comment-list li {
    list-style-type: none;
    position: relative;
    margin-left: 0;
}

Hi dubbs,

the URL is: http://www.eastdevonbusinessforum.org.uk/latest-news/ that would make sense but I am working mainly in FF and still doesn’t work (on a mac)

Cheers, Sam

There are no comments added to the posts? Is this the issue that comments can not be added, or that they can be added but are not visible?

They can be added and are shown in the the manager/components/quip but quip will not show anything in the front of the site!

You have moderated and approved them though yeh? I.e. to approve them to be OK to render on the site? I just posted one - awaiting moderation approval...
