    Also, folks, please remember that if you’re testing, you *need* to use a separate browser, as you *cannot* use the same browser that you’re logged into the manager in. It will show you as logged in on the front-end, as, well, you *are* logged in to the MODX system.

      I’m testing by looking on different computers, never mind different browsers and I’m still getting the option to remove each comment. If I get rid of this in a template chunk I won’t be able to remove comments at all as they don’t appear in the backend under Components->Quip.

      I get the same problem of being able to remove the comments on localhost (WAMP) (different browser), but can see the comments in the backend there.

        Can you post your Quip call?

          My Quip call is

          [[!Quip?
          &thread=`blog-post-[[*id]]`
          &threading=`0`
          &tplComment=`blogComment`
          &closeAfter=`30`
          &useGravatar=`0`
          ]]

          and my QuipReply call is

          [[!QuipReply?
          &thread=`blog-post-[[*id]]`
          &notifyEmails=`myemailaddress`
          &closeAfter=`30`
          &useGravatar=`0`
          &tplAddComment=`blogAddComment`
          &tplPreview=`blogPreview`
          ]]

          I’ve played around with recaptcha and moderate in the calls as well (the moderate works fine). I did notice that the form didn’t put my name & email address in on other browsers, so it doesn’t think I’m logged in.

          Comments are posting fine. To be honest, I’m more concerned about the comments not appearing in the back end as then I can take the ’Remove’ out of the template. I have already taken the ’reply’ out of the template, people can add a comment only from the bottom form.

          Thanks for your help.

            I’ve started again from the ’creating a blog’ tutorial and taken away the bits I don’t need one at a time.

            The problem comes when I turn the moderation off. Then when I post a message with an old email address and refresh the page, I’m able to remove all the posts, not just mine. With the moderation on & the comment approved, I’m only able to remove the post I just wrote.

            I’m able to click on delete/approve from the moderation email which goes to the blank components->quip page and see a message up saying it’s done, but no comments.

            I’m very grateful for any help.

              I managed to fix the ’editedon’ error editing some lines in the schema. (also made this changes manually in the table structure) as im new to Modx and dont know exactly how to recreate the table from the schema once its created.
              Hope it helps. Saw this thread is old, but today i had the same problem using 2.0.8-pl and latest Quip version.

              core/components/quip/model/schema/quip.mysql.schema.xml
              (and in the modx db: the modx_quip_comments table)

              Search for this lines in the .xml and update the null value and add default="" to allow null values the first time its created for editedon, deletedon, and approvedon

                      <field key="editedon" dbtype="datetime" phptype="datetime" null="true" default="" />
                      <field key="approvedon" dbtype="datetime" phptype="datetime" null="true" default="" />
                      <field key="deletedon" dbtype="datetime" phptype="datetime" null="true" default="" />
              


              Did some tests and seems to be working ok now.
              Don’t know exactly if this is a bug.
              Prefer someone with more experience to check this and point in the right direction.

              I love the MODx flexibility, kudos for the people creating such awesome CMF.
              Just managed to mount a full site today complete with comments, gallery, blog, phpthumbof, and listings. Only quip was giving me some trouble but finally solved.
