feature request, blog owner reply to comment from adminsuite

Would it be possible to make it so that when I approve a comment and if it needs a reply that I could reply to the comment from within the admin suite instead of having to go back to the blog, find the entry, scroll down to the comment form, type my comment, go back to admin suite, approve my comment. Much easier if I could just type the comment directly in admin suite.

Cheers

Carl

Sorry; I'm being facetious. I was just thinking I want the same thing myself.

Unfortunately, the approve thing is a link, not a form with a button. It works in GET mode, so it can't pick up a comment.

That said, we could add an "Approve and Reply" option. Or even change it to a form with a button, so the reply textbox is sitting right there, with each comment. I'll add it to my to-do list, if Garvin doesn't whip the fix out first.

It's a very nice option! Sadly, as Judebert said, it would require some work. :)

Since 1.1, the comment panel should contain a link to each frontend article for which a comment was made, so it's much easier to click on that link to add a comment on the frontend...

Hopefully the race timer only starts after 1.0 release :-D

Best regards,
Garvin
