For the future we plan to upgrade to the latest codebase for CommentLuv, but what other features is wished for?

This is what I am thinking.

  1. Make the function work for registered users
  2. Let this function work for individual nodetypes: #251858: Select content type for comment luv module
  3. Controlpanel for controlling general features with the possibility to choose what field to collect url-information from (as shown in RealName)

There is several questions regarding this, should all settings be set from the controlpanel or just the general options and let the options regarding each nodetype and each registered users be set in nodetype-settings or user-settings?

Do you have any ideas for new features? or how do you want things to work or be done?
Please come forward.

If you would like to commit some code it would be welcomed, so please help us make this module even better.

I've actually fixed the registered user thing (at least for my site). The only thing that is required is a profile field called profile_blog.

I am reviewing right now the features of the module and I am re planning the roadmap, I am going to create a 6.x-2 branch because I think I am going to change the basics of the module.

The roadmap:

- Make the module independent from external tools (both magpie & commentluv.com) by changing the feed parser to the feeds module (http://drupal.org/project/feeds)
- Both anonymous & registered users must be able to include their feeds.
- Module config page for basic settings such content type enabling/disabling.
- Jquery support to autodiscover the links.

If you have any suggestions about this, please feel free to comment them here :).

pcambre - a good direction to take the module in - more independence would be an excellent start.

There is now a 6.2 release rewritten from scratch (as soon as the system gets it), you can grab it now from CVS.

Now there is no need to download any external tool, feeds module gathers all the information :-D.
There is an admin settings screen where you can select the content types that are enabled for this feature and also if there is a nofollow link added and the length of the text to show.
If you want to change the appearance of the commentluv information displayed in the comments, now there is a tpl.php you can put in your theme.

Tests and feedback are appreciated.

Roadmap from now (TODO list)
-----------------------------------
- Support for registered users, profile & content profile.
- Jquery Support (as soon as you get out from the textfield of url, last post is gathered)
- Twitter support.
- Views support (?)
- Update comments support. Now you can't edit this links and will be desirable.

I am not backporting this release to Drupal 5.

Now there is support for profile, so urls provided by authenticated users are used.

pcambra or lomz,
I installed commentluv and feeds as instructed. Everything went fine and the user had an option of choosing whether to use commentluv or not. However, when I submitted the comment, commentluv did not work and there was nothing which said something like "the last post by %$#%$ is blah, blah".

I'm using Acquia Prosper theme on my site smartsingh.com and I think probably the theme doesn't support changes to comment format.

I have disabled commentluv for now. I'm not really a developer. Could you help me?

By the way, this is really a great way to spread luv :)

adheesh I'm guessing it doesn't work anymore since it's not maintained. I've made no changes to the comment format, and just installed this, and it doesn't work either.

The feeds module may have changed since last updated this one, I'm not being able to mantain this no more so any help would be highly appreciated.

I am closing this issue, as it's for a Drupal version that isn't supported anymore.
