Description

[Tom Ellins [:TMZ]]

Go to any kb article and scroll to the comments at the bottom. Click the detach post icon --> Error. 

After a talk on IRC apparently this should be disabled for article comments.

Should this really be 1.4.1, or 1.4 proper?

Comment 2

[Tom Ellins [:TMZ]]

When we were talking about this in sumo-dev I asked and it was suggested I put it in 1.4.1

Comment 3

It doesn't have a patch, only affects forum moderators and frankly we don't have the bandwidth for it in 1.4 since that's going out on Thursday.

Comment 4

[[:Cww]]

We'll let people know not to use this feature for now.  Trying to triage down the number of 1.4.1 bugs.

Might i ask, what happens if you try to detach a comment from the KB?

I *think* this is the right page; Tanner added (and I confirmed) that loading https://support-stage.mozilla.org/tiki-view_forum.php?locale=en-US&comments_threshold=0&comments_threadId=446874&comments_offset=0&forumId=&openpost=1&comments_detach=1 (while logged in or out) yields:

An unexpected error has occurred!
