    Hey there,
    I want to create a blog and therefor I need a comment system, so I found Quip.
    Seems to work so far, but problem is, when leaving a message the post only shows 0 instead of the written text. Also on back-end in the threads overview. Any idea what the problem could be? Also I don't know where to change the comment-field names, as E-Mail or Website, cause I don't have an entry in Chunks.

    Please help me.
    Thanks a lot.

    Best regards.

      Quip is VERY old. I highly recommended Tickets https://en.modstore.pro/packages/users/tickets

          Is there any german or englisch instruction for Tickets? I really don't know how it works.
          I just want to add a comment system like a blog system.

            If you go to https://docs.modx.pro/components/tickets/ in chrome, right click on the page and select "Translate to English", might work in other browsers as well but not sure

                Use Google Translate for https://docs.modx.pro/components/tickets/ or contact me via [email protected], I will help to make a basic installation and configuration.

                  But if you want to stay with Quip, what might cause the behaviour? I have the same problem with a 0 in the body field in the table right now.

                    I have tried hard to find out why this happens, and dumped the involved data in the processor and controller at different points. The field 'body' looks correct, but in the table only '0' is stored. On rare occasions I have seen other content, so could it be some sort of race condition? Perhaps from saving both thread and comment? And very few have mentioned this, so perhaps it's a php7.x problem?

                    It's annoying because I have an almost working setup with Quip / QuipReply split to different resources. I don't know if that's possible with Tickets.

                    Update: I turned on mysql logging and '0' was actually stored. No overwrite involved. [ed. note: alipang last edited this post 5 years, 9 months ago.]

                      Tada! I finally nailed this one. The schema is wrong. It could possibly be a php version problem. Change phptype from text to string for "body" in the schema and in the quipcomment.map.inc.php file.
