Extension talk:LiquidThreads/LQT Archive 1

user manual?
Is there any information about how to use some of the features described, such as the different thread views ("flat, nested, sorted by date, subject, etc." -- I see how to change the sorting, but not how to switch between flat and nested, much less what other options might be available)?

Also, is it possible to transclude views of a discussion thread or topic list -- some possible uses:
 * table of all discussions on a given page (possibly with a maximum length)
 * list of all comments by a given user
 * table of all discussions or comments tagged with a given category
 * more complex queries (all comments by a given user tagged with a given category)

I see that transclusion can be done with specific threads using, but  does not exist (I would have expected it to show all threads for that page, in some format or other).

ForcePreview
If ForcePreview is installed parallel to Liquid Threads, it is not possible to save posts as anonymous user! --hollosch 01:11, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Mark as Read
Using MW 1.16 and LT 2.0-alpha r75373

When going to a message that is flagged as a new message. If I respond to the message it still shoes the thread as unread. This is true in both editing location ie in Special:NewMessages and Talk:???

I would have expected the message read flag to be cleared once I had responded.

Name signing code
Should the name signing code be disabled on wikis with Liquid Treads on all talkpages such as Gamification wiki, and on sites like this one, be disabled in threads? --MyrtonosTry liquid theads 12:15, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Marking an LT comment as "patrolled"?
I can't figure out how to mark a LiquidThread comment as patrolled. Any hints? -- Chris Hennes 19:37, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

A requested feature -- to facilitate discusion about pictures
My users keep asking to use LiquidThreads to discuss an uploaded picture.

Typically here is what I do:

for a .jpg uploaded as say, "File:mypic.jpg", I click on the discussion page and then click the [Add header] link and then add the picture as the sole content of the pictures talk page like this:



It would be great if LiquidThreads could detect that it is an image talk page and actually show the image without having to include it manually - for each article.

I would imagine that the behavior could easily be switched on and off using a global variable in LocalSettings.php near the line that includes the extension.

Regardless, Thanks for a great extension! --Rkevans 03:56, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

SVN tag for mw 1.16 compatible version
Could one of the devs please generate a tag from the last version of this extension that is compatible with the REL_1.16 tree of mediawiki?

It would make my and my update-script's life much simpler. Thanks! --Clausekwis 18:16, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

LiquidThreads not loading correctly
I am getting LQT to load as an extension on my MW 1.16 install, it is showing up on the versions page.

The problem I am having is when I click the add a discussion link it just bounces up and down and then nothing happens, I can go to the link directly though and everything works and allows me to add a thread.

When I try to reply to that thread though again I just get a quick bounce up and down and then nothing.

I did see on IE I am getting an error saying Permission Denied jquery.min.js

To be honest I have no idea where else to go with this or how to fix it.

Is there a way I can only allow users to add comments trough the LT?
I noticed that users can start discussions trough "Start a new section" in the tab menu, is there a way that i can limit my users from adding comments trough default MW way? So that they can only add discussions or comments trough LiquidThreads
