It would be nice to have a new setting for timeline comments.

Add a setting in the admin control to allow the admin the ability to specify how many comments load each time the user clicks "See previous comments..." it appears to load 10 at a time by default and I can't see a way to adjust this. I can specify how many load initially, but not when clicking the button above.

Thank you
Hi James,

Thanks for your suggestion. We will see what we can do with the setting. For your information, in EasySocial 4.0 we've revamp the EasySocial settings to keep it simple. Sometime too many settings might confuse users.

Anyway, thanks again for your feedback and your suggestion.

Hello. Try this option “ Total Comments To Display Initially” like on a screenshot.

Thanks @User.

I already had that one set to (5) which is good for the initial amount. I want to adjust the amount that load each time you click on "Show previous comments...". I can ONLY get ES to display 10 at a time. I even thought this might be related to Joomla Default List and it isn't so I'm not sure other than it might be hard coded into the javascript.

But thank you.

Hi James,

Currently there is no option for the number of comments load after click on the 'see previous comments...'. I will logged this into issue tracker and we will see if we can add reuse the Joomla default list setting or not.

Thanks and have a nice day

Thank you Sam.

If I could make a recommendation, I would not rely on Joomlas list length. I would create your own setting. I say this because in other areas of ES the list length is used and in those cases we typically want it longer, where as with the comments, we would typically want it to be fewer.

Thank you,
James
