Serendipity Forums

I'm using the Comments Plug-in. I'd like to add a link for a new coment to the current entry. How can I do that?

Hi!

You mean you want to fetch the most recent blog article, and then link to that?

You must then eihter create your own plugin or modify the existing one, to use serendipity_fetchEntry() / serendipity_fetchEntries() to get the most recent entry, and then print out it's links in the generate_content() method of that plugin.

No, I just want a link to the same comment entry screen that a user gets when he clicks on the comment link in the bottom of an entry window.

Thanks,

Hi!

But if a user is already there, he must only scroll down to enter a new comment?! Why clutter the sidebar plugin with yet another link, if it actually refers to the same page? I'm not fully sure I understand what you want to do yet.

Regular comments are not a plugin. The sidebar comments ARE generated by a plugin. Is that what you are referring to?

Can you provide a URL to your site and verbally describe exactly where you want that?

In the right sidebar I have the Comments Plug-in. Right now there are no comments. I'd like to have a link in it to allow the reader to access the comment entry window.

Thanks,

Thanks for the link.

Comments are entry-specific, not "site-wide". If you want people to make non-entry-specific remarks, you might look into the shoutbox plugin.
