362524 - Seperate initial description from comments

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

Build Identifier: 

Looking into the source I've noticed that the initial description and the comments are produced by the same code snippet.

[%# *** Additional Comments *** %]
<div id="comments">
[% PROCESS bug/comments.html.tmpl
   comments = bug.longdescs
   mode = user.id ? "edit" : "show"
 %]
</div>

I would like to have it splitted up, which makes the opportunity of i.e. listing the initial description at the top of the page and the comments history at the bottom.

This could be done like this:

[%# *** The Initial Description *** %]
[% PROCESS bug/longdescription.html.tmpl
   comments = bug.longdescs
   mode = user.id ? "edit" : "show"
 %]

[%# *** Comments History *** %]
[% PROCESS bug/comments.html.tmpl
   comments = bug.longdescs
   initial_desc = true | false
   mode = user.id ? "edit" : "show"
 %]

Reproducible: Always

The initial description is just the first comment. If you want to customize your local Bugzilla, you can figure out how to get just the first comment and put it where you'd like.

Questions about that would be best directed to the support list, described at http://www.bugzilla.org/support/
