Comment API Not Working

(Yet another post for my RSS folks, thanks to Phil for bringing this to my attention).

It would appear that Comment API isn’t working in Community Server.  The number of comments are displayed correctly, but the actual comments aren’t (and you can’t post from readers that support comment posting via the Comment API).  Aaaargh.  Once again, I’ve pinged the folks over at Telligent and hopefully will have a fix soon.  In the interim, just use the site itself if you feel inclined.

I was having trouble posting comments at all last week, and I couldn't even let you know via the "contact me" thing... (I emailed root@jaysonknight.com, but no idea if it worked.)

Anyway, here's what I tried to say:

I have to say I prefer the old site. The new one's a bit bland, and the non-resizing content area looks horrible on my WXGA monitor -- there's a lot of whitespace either side, and it's distracting. The adding of comments (it being non-functional aside) is sub-optimal, too; clicking the "Comments" link from the main page takes you to an anchor at the top of the comments, requiring scrolling up to see the "Add a comment" link; I prefer the old school "Show all the comments, and have the 'add comment' bit at the end" -- the present situation means a lot of scorlling up and down to read comments and post a response, and there's no way of seeing the comment you may be responding to without opening a second browser window.

Yeah, yeah, everyone's a critic! :D

Interesting stuff...I hadn't noticed that. I agree with you (and I don't know why telligent chose to do it that way...i could almost live with the having to scroll up, but not showing comments while replying is just flat out dumb). Thanks for the info, I'll ping the folks over at CS and see what's up.
