I use Kunena Discuss 1.7 with Kunena 1.7 on my Joomla Page with Joomla 1.7
(how many 1.7 :laugh: )

I'm very satisfied with the Plug-In

But I can't fix one litte problem.

The Plug-In is shown on Blog Pages like this on my website:
Link

On the Plug-In settings I found an option to don't show Kunena Discuss on Blog Pages. But it doesn't work.

Is there a possibility to hide Kunena Discuss on blog pages like my posted example?

Thanks for all answers!

A screenshot of what settings you're using would help.

Hello sozzled and thank you for your answer.

I made two screenshots of the settings of the Kunena Discuss plug-in. But I use a German language file so I don't know whether the screenshots help you.

On the first attached screenshot you see the whole settings of the Plug-in.
On the second attached screenshot you can only see the bar on the right side of the settings, called basic options.

I think my problem has something to do with the third, fourth or fifth setting of the basic options. In English they mean something like:
View on front pages
View on blog pages
View on other pages

Thank you for all answers

You have wrong setting for "Anzeige auf Blogseiten". You need "Nothing (Nichts)" not "Link".

Hello rich and thank you for your answer. I changed the settings how you described. But it is not the solution for my problem.
I just made a few experiments with the settings:
When there is a subcategory with an own menuentry the cathegory blog is shown without the Discussions.
But when there is a subcategory without an own menuentry the category blog is shown with the discussions.

Example:
My subcategory "Analytische Geometrie" has it own menuentry and the category blog is shown without discussions: Link
My subcategory "Terme" hasn't an own menuentry and the category blog is shown with the discussions: Link

But the settings are for all categorys the same.

Thank you for all your kind answers!

This is a Joomla feature. A blog page is determined by the menu. Pages that are accessed without the menu, are recognized as normal pages.

I had the same problem - the quick reply form was showing on a blog view, which is not recognized as blog because of no menu item (if you have categories showing up on articles as link, try clicking on them - you'll get a "false blog view").

What I needed - to have quick reply form (as well as posts) to be shown ONLY on articles. I have to introduce new option - "Show on Articles", and hack plugin files (description is given below). Result - www.zerno.org.ua .

1. File: /plugins/content/kunenadiscuss/kunenadiscuss.php
Find code:

Code:

$view = JRequest::getVar ( 'view' );
$layout = JRequest::getVar ( 'layout' );
$isBlogPage = ($view == 'section' || $view == 'category') && $layout == 'blog';
$isFrontPage = $view == 'frontpage' || $view == 'featured';
if ($isBlogPage) {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in blog page." );
	$show = $this->params->get ( 'show_blog_page', 2 );
} else if ($isFrontPage) {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in front page." );
	$show = $this->params->get ( 'show_front_page', 2 );
} else {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in {$view}/{$layout} page." );
	$show = $this->params->get ( 'show_other_pages', 2 );
}

Replace with:

Code:

$view   = JRequest::getVar( 'view' );
$layout = JRequest::getVar( 'layout' );
$isBlogPage  = ( $view == 'section' || $view == 'category' ) && $layout == 'blog';
$isFrontPage = $view == 'frontpage' || $view == 'featured';
$isArticle   = $view == 'article';
if ( $isBlogPage ) {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in blog page." );
	$show = $this->params->get( 'show_blog_page', 2 );
} else if ( $isFrontPage ) {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in front page." );
	$show = $this->params->get( 'show_front_page', 2 );
} else if ( $isArticle ) {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are viewing an article." );
	$show = $this->params->get( 'show_article_pages', 2 );
} else {
	$this->debug ( "onPrepareContent: we are in {$view}/{$layout} page." );
	$show = $this->params->get( 'show_other_pages', 2 );
}

2. File: /plugins/content/kunenadiscuss/kunenadiscuss.xml

Find:

Code:

<field name="show_blog_page" type="radio" default="2" description="PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_SHOW_BLOG_PAGE_DESC" label="PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_SHOW_BLOG_PAGE">
	<option value="0">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_NOTHING</option> 
	<option value="1">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_LINK</option> 
	<option value="2">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_REPLIES</option> 
</field>

Insert after:

Code:

<field name="show_article_pages" type="radio" default="2" label="Show in Articles" description="What to display on article view pages">
        <option value="0">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_NOTHING</option>
        <option value="1">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_LINK</option>
        <option value="2">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_REPLIES</option>
</field>

Find:

Code:

<param name="show_blog_page" type="radio" default="2" label="PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_SHOW_BLOG_PAGE" description="PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_SHOW_BLOG_PAGE_DESC"> 
	<option value="0">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_NOTHING</option> 
	<option value="1">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_LINK</option> 
	<option value="2">PLG_KUNENADISCUSS_OPTION_REPLIES</option> 
</param>

Insert after:

Code:

<param name="show_article_pages" type="radio" default="2" label="Show in Articles" description="What to display on article view pages">
