I recently came across Easysocial Comments in your docs section.

Can you please explain what is this?

If i implement this on my custom component, would it show a Status update form below the articles?

I'm looking for replacing my facebook comments with ES comments

regards
hi Sunny,

Sorry for late reply to this,

Yes, for example : blog app, you can take a look of this file -> JoomlaFolder\media\com_easysocial\apps\user\blog\blog.php
You will notice using this kind of code is for render the Easysocial comment in the blog stream.

//example
$comments = Foundry::comments( $item->contextId, 'blog', 'update', SOCIAL_APPS_GROUP_USER , array( 'url' => $url ) );


by the way, may i know which Facebook comment are you mentioned that?

Hi Arlex,

I have a component which is custom made and in it i want to include a commenting system, which in turn is integrated with the comentors ES profile, so was evaluating ES comments.

Currently i've implemented Facebook comments using JFBC facebook comments. But this commenting requires dual signing (if the account is not conneceted with users facebook account) and moreover the integration with user feed is not there.

attaching the screen shot of current implementation and the URL in site details.

regards

Hello Sunny,

Ah I see. Perhaps you can try follow the easysocial articles apps and plugins where we do actually render the easysocial comment in joomla articles. You can download the article apps and plugins from our apps page, http:://stackideas.com/apps .

Hope these could help you.

Hi Ezrul,

This never occurred to me, thanks for pointing out. But can i integrate into a custom component instead of article?

The issue i see is that if i enable ES comment article plugin, it will start appearing on all joomla articles. (e.g jreviews which use joomla article as a base).

regards
Sunny

Hello Sunny,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply.

Yes you can integrate easysocial comment into a different component if you follow the documentation correctly.
