Comments in Photopost

Mee-n-Mac · 01-11-2006, 02:11 PM

Is there a control to allow/disallow comments on specific pictures in Photopost ? I was going to comment on DCR's Turkey Vulture pic (as mcdude had allready done) but when I click on the "post reply" button I don't get a box to enter my text, all I get is a "rating bar" with radio buttons to click on. On some other pics (w/o pre-existing comments) I do see a text box (the "quick reply" box) to enter comments and still on others I see no box nor any post comments/reply button. Is this controllable by the poster or have I discovered a bug ?

ps - I was/am logged in as myself.

It seems to be affecting all of dcr's pictures but I'm not sure why yet. I'll update this thread when/if I figure it out.

The problem is fixed and you should now see the full "Quick Reply" box at the bottom all Photopost image pages.

The problem was buried deep in the category permissions. This gave me an excuse to clean up all those permissions. Thanks for pointing it out.

Hi Don:
Now when I click on "See This User's Gallery" nothing comes up under each photo....no rating, no number of views etc. etc. Interesting....McD

Is the "View" (top right under the search box) set to "Gallery"? It sounds like it's set to "Thumbnail".

I'll do some checking to make sure I didn't change the default view style when I tweaked the category settings yesterday.
