Christian Johansen	Friday 11 November 2005 6:51:50 am Hi, I've looked at the tutorial for creating a guestbook: http://ez.no/products/ez_publish_cms/documentation/building_an_ez_publish_site/the_guestbook and allthough it comes close, it doesn't quite help me with what I want to do. I want to create the possibility for anonymous users to post a comment to an article/arbitrary object. Can anyone point me in the direction of some tutorial/documentation of this? I've used the built in comment type to add some comments to an article through the admin-interface but I want this functionality on the public site. I don't know which templates to override and such. Also - I don't know how I'm supposed to set the ordering to ascending without manually doing so for each article. So far I have articles and they appear as containers, I thought this way they could contain articles. But I'm kinda lost, yet still I bet this is standard functionality? Any hints?

You can look on design/base/override/templates/full/article.tpl. There already is such code. You will have to set right permission to Anonymous user, for content create and content edit. template for comment edit, you can find in design/base/override/templates/edit/comment.tpl Personal website -> http://serwatka.net Blog (about eZ Publish) -> http://serwatka.net/blog

Hi Christian,

First you will need form which will pass some variables like NodeID of article, ClassID of comment to /content/action module. You can look on design/base/override/templates/full/article.tpl. There already is such code.

You will have to set right permission to Anonymous user, for content create and content edit.

template for comment edit, you can find in design/base/override/templates/edit/comment.tpl
