Is there a way to get rid of "Your website URL" field in the post comment form without making changes to cms/code/sitefeatures/PageCommentInterface.php?

Hi

Go the PageComments class and delete this field in the Contoller. So this field won't be visible for anyone. I don't have enough time, to give you the whole path.

I'm looking for a solution without doing any changes to the code. Introducing solution in code is not ideal since it might disappear upon next update.

Hi mango,

I read currently my last post and I have to detect, that my statement was very difficult to understand. Sorry. What I mean is that
you can write in your Page.php file or another php file. So you can overwrite the pagecomments, because you have a relation with methods on other class.

Best regards,

Pascal

Pascal, thanks for the pointer, I now understand what you mean. I guess I'll have to learn a bit more before overwriting pagecomments' behaviour. For the time being I'll just use CSS to display:none it.

Thanks again.

I have a project where I need to upload text content to some pages of an unfinished site, while developing the rest of it. My concern is that when i update the site, will I overwrite all my content. Is there a way I can prevent this?

Thank you in advance!

i always use this to remove the URL field....

#CommenterURL {
display:none;
}

or you can :

1 - Create a file mysite/code/PageCommentInterfaceWithoutURL.php :

<?php

class PageCommentInterfaceWithoutURL extends PageCommentInterface{

	function PostCommentForm() {
		$form = parent::PostCommentForm();
		$fields = $form->Fields();
		$fields->removeByName('CommenterURL');
		$form->setFields($fields);
		return $form;
	}
}

?>

2 - and add this function in your Page_Controller class in mysite/code/page.php :

function PageComments() {
	if($this->data() && $this->data()->ProvideComments) {
		return new PageCommentInterfaceWithoutURL($this, 'PageComments', $this->data());
	}
	else {
		if(isset($_REQUEST['executeForm']) && $_REQUEST['executeForm'] == 'PageComments.PostCommentForm') {
			echo "Comments have been disabled for this page";
			die();
		}
	}
}
