I am not sure where to post this but here goes.

1. How can I hide the "empty" comments field?
2. How can I have blog posts from EasyBlog post into EasyDiscuss?

Thanks in advance.

Current subscriber of EasyBlog, EasyDiscuss, and Komento
Hi there,

How can I hide the "empty" comments field?

Did you meant this sections http://take.ms/XAALN? If yes, you need to do some customization at this path components/com_komento/themes/wireframe/structure/default.php by removing codes below and paste them at this path templates/current template/html/com_komento/structure/default.php * template override

[gist type="php"]
<div class="o-empty">
<div class="o-empty__content">
<i class="o-empty__icon fa fa-comments-o"></i>
<div class="o-empty__text t-lg-mt--md"><?php echo JText::_('COM_KOMENTO_NO_COMMENTS_POSTED_YET'); ?></div>
</div>
</div>
[/gist]

2. How can I have blog posts from EasyBlog post into EasyDiscuss?

Currently, it is not possible to achieve this as both different are different purpose where Easyblog are for blogging and Easydiscuss are commonly use for asking question and etc.

Thanks for your understanding.

I find it odd that you say that considering that Mark answered a previous post of mine EasyBlog posts into Kunena Forums

Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Do you mean you would like those Easyblog blog post show in Easydiscuss discussion page?

If yes, that is possible to achieve this, what you need to do is enable this Content - EasyDiscuss plugins then configure import Easyblog post into Easydiscuss, you can refer on my attached screenshot below.

So when the user publish a new blog post, it will automatically create a discussion post into Easydiscuss.

I was actually referring the the exact opposite. EasyBlog > EasyDiscuss

Make a blog post that would automatically appear in the forums. The only reason why I want to be able to do this is because of the drag-n-drop layout of the blog posts.

Hey Michael,

I believe what Arlex has pointed out above is what you are trying to achieve unless I misunderstood your original question on part #2. If I understand correctly, you want the blog post to appear in EasyDiscuss, is that correct?

If that is the case, you need to enable the "Content - EasyDiscuss" plugin and ensure that com_easyblog is allowed as per the screen shot that Arlex provided. Once that is done, the blog post would be added into EasyDiscuss as a forum post whenever a blog post is created.

Mark Thank you for your response. You are correct in your assessment as to what I meant. However, I was also interested in a category to category posting not just a single posting. Even though what he suggested will work and I would just have to move the post to the appropriate category manually which is not a big deal. Either way it will allow me to take full advantage of EasyBlog's posting format (Tables, Columns, Sections) from within EasyDiscuss.

Hey Michael,

Unfortunately it isn't possible for EasyDiscuss to auto generate posts from EasyBlog based on a category to another category replica because there is no way to generate an interface to map categories from EasyBlog into EasyDiscuss categories.
