Enhanced discussion support for Plone

Project description

Introduction
============


plone.app.discussion replaces the old commenting system in Plone 4.1 and is also
available as an add-on product for Plone 3 and 4. It was initially developed as
part of the Google Summer of Code 2009 by Timo Stollenwerk (student) and Martin
Aspeli (mentor).

but no other validation package is installed.

1.0b9 (2010-10-07)
------------------

- Replace the can_manage method with a can_review method that checks the
'Review comments' permission. This fixes
http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/11145.
[timo]

- Fix moderation actions (publish, delete) in the moderation view with virtual
hosts. This is a replacement for http://dev.plone.org/plone/changeset/35608.
[timo]

- Do not show two "login to add comments" buttons when there are no comments
yet. This fixes http://plone.org/products/plone.app.discussion/issues/12.
[timo]


1.0b8 (2010-10-04)
------------------

- Apply the comment viewlet template and styles to the new title-less comments.
This might require integrators to apply their custom templates and styles.
[timo]

- Remove title field from the comment form and replace it with an auto-generated
title ("John Doe on Welcome to Plone").
[timo]

- Fix http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/11098: "Comment byline shows login
name, not full name"
[kiorky]

- Make sure the __parent__ pointer (the conversation) of a comment is not
acquisition wrapped in conversation.addComment. This fixes
http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/11157.
[timo]

- Revert r35608 since this was breaking the comment moderation bulk actions.
The BulkActionsView expects the absolute path of the comments without the
portal url (e.g. '/plone/doc1/++conversation++default/1285346769126020').
This fixes http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/11156.
[timo]

- Use "(function($) { /* some code that uses $ \*/ })(jQuery)" instead of
"$(document).ready(function(){ /* some code that uses $ \*/ });" to invoke
jQuery code.

1.0b6 (2010-08-24)
