566219 - Tweaks to "project comments" page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Websites Graveyard :: drumbeat.org, defect)

Description

[Matt Thompson]

e.g. http://drumbeat.trellon.org/dbl/project/fight-against-badware/comments

Move "add your comment" box below existing comments
* When there are comments on the page already, move the "add your comment" box BELOW comments. So that you read the other comments first, then add your own.
* Remove "input format" option for normal users. Confusing to humans.
* "Notifications." Are notifications set to send by default? This wording does not make it clear to the user. 
**Notifications should be set to "off" by default. Opt in to receive notifications on comment threads. "[ ] Please send me notifications on this comment thread."

Make WYSIWIG editor less complicated for comments?
* Can we turn off some of the dizzying array of toolbars for entering comments? 
* Just leave the formatting and hyperlinking one on, and turn off the rest

Tweak text for anonymous users
* "Login or Register to post a comment". 
* Change to: "Log in or sign up to post your comment

- To tweak the page for "login/register", you can use hook_form_alter() in the custom module to modify this form.  (more info at http://api.drupal.org/api/function/hook_form_alter )

- Users don't have permission to subscribe to notifications at the moment, so it's already disabled.  If you're interested in implementing this feature, we would recommend http://drupal.org/project/comment_notify

- WYSIWYG editors are tied to Input Formats in Drupal.  To change the WYSIWYG buttons available for Filtered HTML - http://drumbeat.trellon.org/dbl/admin/settings/wysiwyg/profile/1/edit
To change the buttons available for Full HTML - http://drumbeat.trellon.org/dbl/admin/settings/wysiwyg/profile/2/edit

- You can hide Input Format by having only one input format site wide... or by hiding it in CSS.  We will implement the latter option.
