Hello Manuel Mueller,

I'm really sorry that delayed of this reply,
Correct me if i getting wrong your meaning here, do you mean that when the user reply from the group discussion, then the user able to view the full content from the stream, but the user will not able to directly to reply from the stream, because that was the stream comment. Check my screenshot below.
May i know which statistics are you mentioned in previous post? perhaps provide us some screenshot regarding this? Please advise.

I could not see what you mean in the first attachment, so I decided to give you two screenshots from me to easier understanding. In this case a answer was given. Usually the topic itself would have statistics at the same places (stream and at the group).

At the second screenshot I did a mistake with the arrow, I meant the visitor counter once up.

Hello Manuel Mueller ,

Sorry for late reply to this,
Oh, I understand your question now, thanks for provide so details for us.
Yes, but that stream is just show 1 of the user answered that discussion, that was not show all the reply in that stream. So the user also will click in that link and see the entire discussion what is the topic discuss about.

If you would like to disable this, you can apply this CSS code in your template css file

body div#fd .col-md-3 {

    display: none;

}

so it will disappear that statistic part from the discussion page.

I think I wasn`t clear enough, so I will try it again. I don`t talk about the answer counter, I talk about the "how much people visit the discussion".

Most discussions or answers are maybe 1 or 2 phrases long and people always see the complete discussion or answer. It doesn´t matter if you start a discussion, you will see the complete thread too, so why should you click a link to it? If you do anyway you will be get frustrated because you click a link for nothing new. You will also feel accredited if you see that just 5 other persons was follow the link into the group. But I`am sure that more of 5 persons read the discussion in the stream and maybe wait if there is an interesting answer. But why get involved to a discussion which just 5 people read?

Would you join a discussion which just 5 people are interested in and spend time to write an answer?! I still think that for statistics should be a disable/enable function in the backend. It will be very good for new Communities which don´t have many users from the beginning and it also would help to get more dynamic into discussion posts in my mind.

Hello Manuel Mueller,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.
Thanks for take your time explained again, I got your meaning now
I will consult this with our developer on Monday, I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Hello Manuel Mueller,

Sorry for late reply to this,
To be frank, we do not have the proper solution regarding with your situation yet, but what our suggestion is truncate the reply content, so force the user have to click "view discussion" and see the entire reply content, so the hits will be increase.
You can apply this code in this file JoomlaFolder\media\com_easysocial\apps\user\groups\themes\default\streams\discussions\reply.content.php

//LINE39

<?php echo strip_tags( $content ); ?>

//Replace with

			<?php $content = strip_tags($content); ?>

			<?php echo strlen($content) > 30 ? JString::substr($content, 0, 30 ) . '...' : $content ; ?>

Hope this help.

Hello!

This is a perfect solution in my mind! I tried to put the same code for to the discussion page, that should be:
JoomlaFolder\media\com_easysocial\apps\user\groups\themes\default\streams\discussions\create.content.php

//LINE44

<?php echo strip_tags( $content ); ?>

//Replace with

			<?php $content = strip_tags($content); ?>

			<?php echo strlen($content) > 30 ? JString::substr($content, 0, 30 ) . '...' : $content ; ?>

Is this the right way?

I would highly recommend to include this into the next ES version, so long blog discussions or answers in the stream will not longer look like my screenshot in the attachment

Hello Manuel Mueller,

Yes, that was correct
I will consult with our developer regarding this, because this code is only hack for you, we have to consider a proper fix regarding this. By the way, thanks for your feedback.
