Disable and hide comments

[Marie Sauvage [EBM WebSourcing]]

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)

Hi all !

I'm trying to disable comments from all users (guests and logged users) and then to hide the useless comments zone at bottom of pages.
I've seen there is some options in the wiki.cfg file but I'm not the server admin. Is there a way to do that without having to modify the config file and reboot xwiki ? I don't find anything in the administration space.
I've thought to change the layout and remove this zone but I don't find it's a "clean" way to do, and maybe later we'll want to reactivate comments...

thanks for your help,
Marie.

Hi Marie,

You need to change the XWiki.XWikiPreferences class like this:

1. Go to <server>/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=class
2. Add a new property called showcomments of type String Class
3. Go to
<server>/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=object&classname=XWiki.XWikiPreferences
and write no in the showcomments field

That's it, the comments are gone. If you want to re-enable comments,
replace the "no" value with "yes"
If you want to disable attaachments, too, do the same with a property
named showattachments.

Just for your information ->

After following Sergiu's steps, you can show comments on selected pages using #set ($showcomments=1) in the wiki editor of that page...

Would be great if you guys could summarize all this on xwiki.org.

I'd put it in the existing configuration guide (in the Admin space).

WDYT?

Any volunteer?

Thanks

I'm already working on the groovy and velocity tutorial (connecting to a database). Let's see how it works out...

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)

Hi again !

unfortunately, there is still a detail : the top menu "Show" still gives access to a comment page with this url : <my wiki>/bin/view/Main/?viewer=comments&
Can it be hidden with parameter or only by modifying menu ?
thanks,
Marie.

The same steps can be applied for hiding the left panels and displaying them at will on specific pages but there is problem with the display.

Try turning off the 'display the left column' in <server>/xwiki/bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=object&classname=XWiki.XWikiPreferences and then placing #set($showLeftPanels=1).

Or even the other way round by turning it on and placing #set($showLeftPanels=1).

A little fine tuning might help a lot... Any suggestions ?

Hi Marie,

I think the only way to do it is to modify the menu.

After turning off the panel for one page, there appears a blank column in the panel's place. It wouldn't have appeared if the panel was turned off for the entire wiki. I tried changing the css file but it wouldn't even budge. Will it be a good idea to create a css file exclusively for a page or is there an easier way out ?

ok, thank you, I did it by commenting the right part in the menuview.vm. So it won't be difficult to go back.
