Extension_talk:DiscussionThreading also has similar discussions about this extension. Should the two pages be combined?

Lost Replay Tab --Dtsig 20:56, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Have updated to 1.10 (all went well). The updated the DiscussionThread as described using the 'canned' files. Reply tab has been lost. All we see on the right is EDIT oh my

Please Ignore --Dtsig 21:25, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
It turns out that the 'sectionthreadingon' flag was moved before the actual extension. Not sure how it could have happened but .. It works great. Thanks for the modified installation

An Example?
Is there somewhere I can see this extension running? Thanks.--Rovo 20:34, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Internationalisation for spanish
Nice extension.

'es' is not listed in the "need to be add" in DiscussionThreading.i18n.php, but if enyone is interesting in it, here it is.

$wgDiscussionThreadMessages['es'] = array(                 'replysection' => 'respuesta',                  'replysectionhint' => "Respuesta a este tema",                  'threadnewsection' => 'nuevo',                  'threadnewsectionhint' => "Empezar un nuevo tema"        );

Doesn't work
Hi

I cannot see a link for edit, what must i make?

thx

RE: Doesn't work --jdpond 16:43, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Until the release of 1.11, you have to manually patch the file "includes/Link.php". You can also download the already patched file if you are working from versions 1_9_3, 1_10_0, or 1_10_1, (see instructions in DiscussionThread Article), but if you do not have one of these versions, you will have to manually patch the file based on the manual patch instructions.

If you have already done this, you may need to flush the cache on your browser (ctrl-f5 on MS Explorer) or force the recompilation of the Link.php module by touching your localsettings.php file. If it still isn't working, see instructions about manually recompiling at the bottom of DiscussionThread Article.

German Translation
$wgDiscussionThreadMessages['de'] = array(        'replysection' => 'antworten',         'replysectionhint' => "Auf diesen Eintrag antworten",         'threadnewsection' => 'neu',         'threadnewsectionhint' => "Neuen Eintrag erstellen" );

CSS tip to make reply body match title? - LNick 19:04, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
I used the CSS tip at the bottom of the article to indent the headings of replies, and I like it very much! However the body of the reply isn't indented. Does anyone have a good CSS trick to do that as well? Or perhaps this could be an enhancement for the extension.

Disabling Edit Thread
Is there a way to disable editing threads? Or at least only allowing the user who created the comment to edit it?

Disabling Edit Thread jdpond 22:40, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
The only way I could think to do this would be to use something like LockDown (by Duesentrieb). You would still have the issue of positively identifying the original author of the Thread unless you wanted to do a fairly complex history search against the database. Could become and administrative nightmare. Is this a nice to have or can't live without it?

Disabling Edit Thread
We would like to use this discussion thread like a forum as it is the only extension I could find that adds this kind of feature to the "Discussion" tab. We want to prevent users from being able to edit each other's comments, just add replies or create new ones. If I have to turn off the edit completely for each reply, and if that would be easier, that would be fine.

Not working in 1.12
I recently upgraded to version 1.12 and then installed this extension but it only adds tildes to the subject line which automatically adds author and date, but no links or threading are visible. Has anyone else had problems like this?

Re: Not working in 1.12 --Danbrice 04:38, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

 * I had it working in 1.11 and upgraded to 1.12 and it's worked fine in both. Since I started with 1.11, I didn't need to do any of their patching either.

Example
There is no example link..this is quiet a intensive extension. It would be nice to see it. Especially, as there are so many comparable extensions and I do no know what I want yet..thanks!--Jorgusch 12:39, 18 June 2008 (UTC)

Not working in v11.0
In LocalSettings.php, I needed to add

in order to remove the error on line 50 relating to wfLoadExtensionMessages. This is contrary to the instructions about v11.0

re: Not working in v11.0 --jdpond 04:55, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

 * I've checked this out extensively using the trunk (I don't have a copy of REL1_11) and can't replicate the problem in the most current release. If I can verify the issue, I'd like to change the documentation. Is anyone else having this issue?
