Question [Merged topic] KunenaDiscuss plugin for K 1.5.x

I have following problem:
if article was comented in forum via discussbot, by default this post(s) shows in all views, like frontpage, category view etc.
Is there any workaround don't show posts if article have -=readmore=- (whats typical for frontpage or blog layout), but show only post count.
Posts show only if full article viewed, like a standart commentary system.
Now i just comment out lines from ~1020 to ~1100 started with $id = $post->id; but this way it dont show posts at all.

Any help?

P.S.
with -=posts=- i mean QuickPost of course

Kunena discuss plugin (Joomla 1.5 NATIVE)

Highly inspired/based on Kunena Discussbot (C) 2000-2006 Two Shoes M-Factory, (C) 2007-2008 ObjectClarity.com!
Supports nearly all functionality.

Rewritten nearly at all places; to support more features in new Joomla 1.5 and Kunena 1.5.4.

Requirements: Joomla 1.5, Kunena 1.5.4+

Highlights:

* captcha
* MyBlog integration
* Joomla 1.5 design, language files
* Links to profiles (Kunena, JomSocial, Community Builder, Clexus PM)
* Links to avatars (Kunena, JomSocial, Community Builder, Clexus PM)
* SEF urls
* Languages: en, cs, de, gr, gb, es, fi, fr, it, lv (by murmins), nl, ru, sk (by me), sr (by kmilos), sv
* Simple upgrade, just install over, it just works

It's really early stage. I am releasing it in version 0.2 alpha to be clear.
This work starts this weekend, when I can't climb, because some business critical problem occurs.
This plugin still needs much work. Therefore any testers will helps a lot.
I am still rewriting old code, so there isn't time to test that much. If you find anything strange, be sure to report it. Hopefully it go through alpha in 1-2 weeks. In this stage, I am eliminating all code, which is not needed in J1.5 native plugins. Beta stage needs your help - testing it in different environments. If this stage won't resolve all issues, there will be rc stage. If not, stable release will follow. Then I can add new features to it.

So this is the plan. Here's 0.2 alpha:

This seems to be just what the doctor order. Thanks for your contribution, Jerry. I'll certainly give your test version(s) a try on one of my test sites within the next few days.

When I discovered that the ObjectClarity Discussbot was not J! 1.5 native I gave it away completely - I uninstalled the plugin and I disabled the integration setting in the Kunena control panel. I opted, instead, for !JoomlaComment - although released as a "beta", it's very well constructed - from compojoom.com . Although !JoomlaComment lacks integrability with Kunena it does have message threading (in the commonly understood sense of that term). A discussbot, integrated with Kunena, may not suit every website - I'm not even sure I'll go back to using one - but it's good to hear that someone's rejuvenating this old favourite for the J! 1.5 / 1.6 world.

Thanks Jerry, will try it when I get a chance.

In the meantime, could you please add the attached Serbian translations as well?

Also, have you had a chance to look at the small fixes I suggested for OC's discussbot:

Good work jerry!!!

Will it be compatible with the old tags in articles already for the object clarity discuss bot?

If not prob not too hard to do a search and replace in the database for the new tag that has to be put in the articles.

Thanks again and look forward to it.

Yes, it is fully compatible with the old tags. Only first installation needs your backend settings from ObjectClarity bot. It should work also in parallel with ObjectClarity, but ONLY ONE can be enabled at a time.

- fixed all bugs reported by kmilos, thanx
- fixed some other bugs
