[Done]: position of the "comment input form"

[jester-head]

hey!
first of all the link refering to my gallery: http://rempersschar.cwsurf.de/coppermine2/index.php

i wonder how to get the input form stay fix above the postet comments and not below the postet comments.
i don't want to have to scroll down all the way to the bottom of the page to post a comment.

i found a threat dealing with this problem, but sadly it is for cpg version 1.4.x.
i compared the codes of cpg 1.4.x and 1.5.4 and unfortunately i had to realise that the codes differ from another.

i hope someone can tell me how to do this.

You have removed the Credits - "Powered by Coppermine" - read your docs about support for galleries without the credits link visible.

Additionally, the pop-up advertisements make your pages difficult to navigate.

[Joachim Müller]

No "Powered by Coppermine" footer -> no support (see http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,55415.msg270635.html#msg270635). Bye.

The section of the docs that explains how to modify the footer contains a warning in big bold letters as well as the file itself where you perform the modifications that you mustn't lightheartedly change the footer or remove it, so I don't believe you. I consider your excuse to be lame and will therefore not support you further.

Keep on misbehaving and you'll earn yourself a ban in no time. Merging your new thread with the existing one.

[jester-head]

ok, what else than saying "sry" can i do?

is there any chance to get some advice concerning my problem(s)?

General suggestion (no answer to your question): we have a config option Sort order of comments. I think we should place the new comment form accordingly (latest comment on top -> form above the comments; latest comment at the bottom -> form below the comments).

[jester-head]

i know about the config option.
you "want" to have it this way:

PICTURE
latest comment
input form
comments postet before

right?

i would like to have it like this:

PICTURE
input form
comments

you understand what i mean? is that possible? how?

[Αndré]

you "want" to have it this way:

PICTURE
latest comment
input form
comments postet before

right?

No


I want it that way:

Sort comments ascending

PICTURE
comments
input form

Sort comments descending

PICTURE
input form
comments

My message was more a note to myself instead of giving you a solution I'd like to hear some opinions of the devs.

[Joachim Müller]

I think we should place the new comment form accordingly (latest comment on top -> form above the comments; latest comment at the bottom -> form below the comments).

Agreed

[jester-head]

ok that would be fine ...

is there a chance that you tell me how to do so?

[Αndré]

If someone (probably me ;D) has committed the solution to the svn, you can checkout the changes. You'll find the changes in one of the next versions of cpg1.5.x (probably 1.5.8).

[jester-head]

ok, thx

[Αndré]

Added feature in r7668.

[jester-head]

ok, but can you please tell what exactly you mean with "r7668" ?

[Αndré]

Revision 7668 of our svn.

[jester-head]

thx again

[jester-head]

hmmm, now i'm very confused....

the first thing i wonder about is the file size. the old files had a size of about 200 Kb. the new ones have a size of almost 1 MB.
but ok...
i downloaded the files and placed them accordingly to the folder structure....
but now the "shock":
when i try to visit the gallery (http://rempersschar.cwsurf.de/coppermine2/) not my gallery opens but a "surceforge site" showing the content of the new files, i think...
what has happened, respectively what has gone wrong?

[Αndré]

Obviously, you have done something wrong. If you don't know how to apply changes, wait for the next release.

[Joachim Müller]

Read the documentation before asking questions and lightheartedly applying stuff you don't understand.
