Also, on some apps, Komento appears above the main menu.

OK. I found out that if you create a new item after Komento installation, it places the comment section under the description element. If you install Komento into a preexisting Zoo install with items already added, the comment section will be placed above the main menu. This will cause problems unless you are installing Komento over a fresh install of Zoo.

Even with a fresh install, it would be helpful to move Komento into different element positions.

Hello Matts,

Can you take a look at the plugins / extensions manager and see if Komento plugin comes after any of the zoo content plugins? This does seem like an issue with the ordering though.

I have the following message in Zoo, after a installation

Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /var/www/web1611/html/100R/components/com_komento/komento_plugins/com_zoo.php on line 290

Hello Eugen,

Do you mind to fill up the site details in the form? We'll take a look on your site, thanks

I have the same problem, like Matts. I think, the problem is in Blog application that most of us duplicate the textarea where the content is in. In the first div there is a short teaser of the article and in the second div is the rest of the article. The comments form will be inserted right after the first div, in the middle of the article. (Edit: I just saw, that the comment form is also added after the second div. There are 2 comment forms in my article.) I cannot leave this for long (it's a live site), but you can have a look at it here: http://www.wowzoo.de/mop/news/item/mop-neue-wildtierfamilien

I provided all neccessary informations in the site details tab. Thanks in advance.

I also like to change the position of the comment form, cause it will be inserted before the related articles and they should come first.

Oh, I nearly forgot to mention that there should be an option to chose whether to show the username or the real name. Currently the link to Jomsocial profile is correct and working, but it shows the user's real name.

Ok, I will shut down Komento again. On application frontpage (like http://www.wowzoo.de/news) I get a white page with following error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function getParams() on a non-object in /.../components/com_komento/komento_plugins/com_zoo.php on line 192

Hello Noemi,

I'm sorry for this late reply. After some inspection, Komento do not seamlessly integrate with multiple textarea in a Zoo item, at least for now. My suggestion is to insert {KomentoDisable} to the textarea content of those you don't need to avoid duplicating Komento.

We'll try to seek a better solution on this issue. Any suggestions or ideas are welcomed.

Thank you for looking into it, Jewei. It is at least a solution and I am thankful. I can insert the code quickly in PHPMyAdmin. Edit: I tried it now and if I insert the code in the first text element, then comments will be disabled for the whole article. And I can see the code {KomentoDisable}, normally it should be not visible.

I'm sorry, but Komento is still not usable for me. 1. Profile link shows real name instead of username. 2. For some unknown reason the comment form will not be duplicated now (yey!), BUT after a new import of the comments, they appeare twice. As I wanted to delete the duplicates in backend, the comments site shows only the table headings but not the comments themselves. 3. Comments are still above related articles. I don't like that, but the first point is more important for me.

Hello Noemi,

Let me look into your site, again. We'll try out best to facilitate your request. I'll update you again shortly

P.S. Meanwhile, forget the {KomentoDisable} solution. I've just modify it so Komento only load at the last textarea.

Hello Noemi,

Regarding to the real name /username issue, are you sure you wanted to show the Joomla username instead? We actually intended Komento to show real name because if we expose the login username, it might be a security tread to the users.

Anyway, we'll gladly assist you and provide you a hack if you insist to. No worry

We've fixed point (2), there were 2 comments loaded as com_fabrik, we've remove that and now it works well.

Regarding to point (3) - comments are above related articles. This would not be possible as for now, Komento is attaching to the textarea content.

We'll look into the future if we could load Komento in Zoo as an element. Thanks!

Hi Jewei,
well yes, it is very important for my users, that only the user name will be shown. It's a gamer community, where real names are not important. Most of the users want to be anonymous in public.

Another little bug: The comment count seems to be not correct. Please compare the Zoo comment count and the Kometo comment count. You will see, that there is a difference. It's not only that it doesn't count replies as independent comments, but sometimes it shows that there are comments where actually no comments are.

Hi Noemi,

Sorry for the delay. I've applied a few changes on your site to reflect your requests.

Show username instead of real name:
/components/com_komento/themes/kuro/comment/item/author.php
added line 16:

$row->name = $row->author->username;

Rest assured that this will be added in the integration settings page for you to easily switch between Real Name/Username to display.

As for the comment count bug, I've fixed this on your site, and here are the fixes I've applied:
/components/com_komento/models/comments.php
line 57

if( empty( $this->_total[$component][$cid] ) )

change to

if( empty( $this->_total[$component][$cid] ) )

line 75

$this->_total = $db->loadResult();

change to

$this->_total[$component][$cid] = $db->loadResult();

line 77

return $this->_total;

change to

return $this->_total[$component][$cid];

Hello Jason,
thank you very very much, now it's almost perfect

I found another little bug. Comment count, Hits and Readmore don't work on category pages like http://www.wowzoo.de/news/category/haustiere

Is there a possibility to set the time zone? I don't really know which time it shows, it's not the server time, I suppose. There is a difference of 2 hours.

And a last question: Are there any JomSocial rules for userpoints? I made a quick search in the rules section of JomSocial (backend) and I couldn't find any. The integration in the activity feed works very well.

Hi Noemi,

The time zone is set under:
Konfigurieren -> Server -> Serverzeitzone

We haven't actually got to implementing UserPoints yet but rest assured we will be including this in near future.

I will check on the Category Page issue and get back to you as soon as possible.

Hello Noemi,

I've fixed the logic so now http://www.wowzoo.de/news/category/haustiere also shows the summary text

We'll include this fix in our next Komento release!

Thank you so much, you're great And now the integration with Fabrik but that's another topic

Hi Noemi,

Thanks for the kind words. Glad you enjoy our support so far.
