Comments and rating overall view

Hi!
It seems that RSGallery doesn't have ability to show how much comments or ratings have image in overall view. So I need to check every image from fron-end to see about new comments or ratings.
I suppose it would be useful to have rating/comments statistic in Manage Items section in back-end. Or some notification about new comments/ratings.

Intergrate with JomComment

I believe JomComment is an excellent Commenting system that is used on so many websites that it would be nice to have just one commenting system. it would be nice to see RSGallery more integrated with the website to include using the websites commenting and rating system (even if its something besides JomComment).

On Jom Comments website I found this article for RSGallery2 1.14 but of course the latest release of RSGallery2 is 1.16 and I'm not sure if it matters whether Joomla is 1.0.xx or 1.5.x but its worth a shot

RSGallery2 version 1.14.3 (SVN 649)

* Open up the file JOOMLA/components/com_rsgallery2/templates/semantic/display.class.php * Look for the following block of codes which should be at around line 381 onwards,

Code:

if ( $rsgConfig->get("displayComments") ) {
$tabs->startTab(_RSGALLERY_COMMENTS, 'Comments' );
$this->_showComments();
$tabs->endTab();
}
</per>

Modify it so that it would look as below,

<pre>
if ( $rsgConfig->get("displayComments") ) {
global $mosConfig_absolute_path;
include_once($mosConfig_absolute_path . '/components/com_jomcomment/mambots.php');
$item = rsgInstance::getItem();
echo jomcomment($item->id, 'com_rsgallery2');
$tabs->startTab(_RSGALLERY_COMMENTS, 'Comments' );
$this->_showComments();
$tabs->endTab();
}

Re: Comments and rating overall view

I am attaching a file that when updated will embed jom_comment properly with rsg2. The directions above didnt work well for me using Joomla 1.5x

This attached file replaces the same file inside the semantic template folder. This is for RSGallery2 1.16

For other versions manually change the following:

if ( $rsgConfig->get("displayComments") ) {
         $tabs->startTab(_RSGALLERY_COMMENTS, 'Comments' );
         $this->_showComments();
         $tabs->endTab();
      }

To:

if ( $rsgConfig->get("displayComments") ) {

$tabs->startTab(_RSGALLERY_COMMENTS, 'Comments' );
/** Jom Comment Hacks **/
global $mosConfig_absolute_path;
include_once($mosConfig_absolute_path . '/components/com_jomcomment/mambots.php');
$item = rsgInstance::getItem();
echo jomcomment($item->id, 'com_rsgallery2');
/** End Jom Comment Hacks **/
//$this->_showComments(); COMMENT THIS LINE OUT OR DELETE IF NECESSARY
$tabs->endTab();
}
