Weblog comment form not prepopulating title field.

I've been using weblog 1.3 on my site, http://hobgoblin.net/php/ and have several users that often comment on each other's blogs. The module isn't automatically filling in the title field on the New Comment form with an "Re: xxxxx". Users are just making up their own titles and it's getting confusing when looking at the Latests Comments Block.

If you reply to a comment, it fills it in appropriately. It's only empty when making a new comment.

My php skills are limited, and I'm only vaguely aware of what I'm doing when poking around inside the code, so some idea of what I need to look for to get this working would really help me out.

Is there something missing in a template? Or is it in the Weblog code somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Figured it out...

For anyone else who's using weblog and is having the same problem, in weblog/comment_new.php this portion:

" WHERE lid=" . $com_itemid . "";

Should read:

" WHERE blog_id=" . $com_itemid . "";

Re: Weblog comment form not prepopulating title field.

hey there,

i have this problem also, but when i look into the comment_new file, all I see is this:

include '../../mainfile.php';
include XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/include/comment_new.php';

can you or someone using weblog 1.3 please post the entire contents of the comment_new.php file?

Thanks.

This is a little late, but if you still need the info here it is. Between those two lines you already have add the following:

$com_itemid = isset($HTTP_GET_VARS['com_itemid']) ? intval($HTTP_GET_VARS['com_itemid']) : 0;
if ($com_itemid > 0) {
    // Get link title
    $sql = "SELECT title FROM " . $xoopsDB->prefix('weblog') . " WHERE blog_id=" . $com_itemid . "";
    $result = $xoopsDB->query($sql);
    $row = $xoopsDB->fetchArray($result);
    $com_replytitle = $row['title'];

So what did I do wrong?
