ETC: Everyday Thoughts Collected: Threaded Comments

    wow...what a neat thing to try.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Let's hope it doesn't blow up something.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    eh... so far so good ...
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    oh ... wow...lookit the color scheme.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    What if someone leaves a second comment branch?
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    ok... I think this makes me happy but will work on the color scheme if possible.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    but what about to people responding to a comment within a comment?
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    this really kind of rocks.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    a sixth layer?
  • Laura Leigh · 1 year ago
    I'll try it
  • Laura Leigh · 1 year ago
    A second comment on the same comment...?
  • Laura Leigh · 1 year ago
    It looks nice
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    I think we hit the max depth on this one. :) Thanks for playing.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    actually a second comment thread on the same post thread. It's like a tree and This was the second branch. It worked :).
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Do you like the colors? The orange and lime worry me.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    oh and ... thanks :)
  • Brian · 1 year ago
    I know I can count on God, death, taxes, and Randy changing his blog;) It's a great addition! Subtle, yet effective.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Cut me some slack man ;). At least nowadays it's isn't complete overhauls of the blog and just tweaks :).

    with the linear view of comments before, it was so easy for two people to run a thread. My hope is that this will better facilitate conversations within threads.

    does that make any sense?
  • Brian · 1 year ago
    I fully support! And I hadn't even thought about the benefit of opening up the comment thread to multiple, simultaneous conversations, I'm sure that will come in handy.

    Overall, I really like it. I notice no time stamp on the replies. Just an observation. The different colors helps separate out the different layers. If I'm tracking right, my comment should have the lime green border. :-) Okay, here we go... 'Submit'.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    testing another something.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Well, you were lime :). Now you are #457AA6 (deeper shade of blue.) The lime and the orange were freakin' me out. I am working on the time stamp.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    we shall see :)
  • Rock · 1 year ago
    I think it works. It's a good addition
  • Rock · 1 year ago
    The text box starts running into the column shortly after the first few layers. It's not a big deal.
  • B.T.Carolus · 1 year ago
    OK, I too want a time stamp. Plus, we can't edit comments made on comments (noticed an egregious error I made after posting, but alas, it will remain enscribed there forever).
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Ok... I think I can fix the time stamp. The ajax editing (what you had before) kind of worries me. I will turn it back on but if the blog blows up I will make a mean face in your general direction until Jesus makes me repent.
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Ellie, I got the time stamp to work but it doesn't link to is comment permalink like the first layered comment. I hope that suffices. I also turned on the editing plugin. Let me know how it works.
  • B.T.Carolus · 1 year ago
    Comment editing and timestamping. Yay!

    ETA How could the blog possibly blow up when it will have such excellent grammar now that we can all proofread our comments after posting?
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Your fun. I am glad you are Yay'ing :) So far so good and no blog blow ups.

    but for some reason I am not sure my grammar will get any better :).
  • Susan H · 1 year ago
    Yay, to time stamps! Good job, Randissimo!
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    Thanks Susan!
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    I took off the threaded comments because they started screwing with the blog templates :(
  • Cris · 1 year ago
    testing
  • Cris · 1 year ago
    Oh darn I just saw this now. I wanted to try threaded comments in my site
  • Randy · 1 year ago
    that's ok Cris. Other than one little template design glitch (not the plugin's fault) I love the plugin. Very easy to install.
