Version: 7.x-1.x-dev » 8.x-1.x-dev
Status: Active » Needs work

Created a development release for this so changing the version here. Changing the status to Needs Work as some code cleanup is required as suggested by @boobaa and @czigor.

Reviewed this project from a task in GCI.

1. This module produces an error on PHP7. After enabled User may alter this field from comment, the add new comment form become disappear. From the recent log messages...
Warning: Parameter 1 to comment_alter_form_comment_form_alter_after_build() expected to be a reference, value given in Drupal\Core\Form\FormBuilder->doBuildForm() (line 1052 of /core/lib/Drupal/Core/Form/FormBuilder.php) #0

2. In PHP5, after submitted comment form with making some changes to the field, the node becomes inaccessible and gives
Fatal error: Class 'Drupal\diff\EntityComparisonBase' not found in /modules/comment_alter/comment_alter.module on line 423

Hi Boobaa, anchal29, Thew :) Thank you all for your contributions

Thew :) Welcome to the Drupal community. And thanks for reporting those two errors in your comment #5 above.

I hope the following helps. For a faster response time and facilitate communications I suggest to create one new ticket per bug report or per topic. In this case I suggest to create two new tickets. One per PHP version and its respective error. New tickets for the Comment Alter module can be create at https://www.drupal.org/node/add/project-issue/comment_alter

If you're not familiar with creating new tickets there is a documentation at https://www.drupal.org/node/73179

I just created the following two tickets. Feel free to edit them to your liking:

  1. PHP7 error at https://www.drupal.org/node/2843584
  2. PHP5 error at https://www.drupal.org/node/2843586

Hi

Do folks still have time to work on this project. I've recently used this module for a client project and have discovered a few issues, patches for which are now in the issue queue, and I'm interested in contributing to the D8 porting where possible...
