Gallery 2.0b3 - Remove Album Level Comments

G2 issues go to the G2 forums

Sorry FryFrog - I didn't notice that.

Thank you mindless. And for whoever else would like to know here's some more specifics:

At around line 131 until about line 150 you should see a block that looks like this:

	    if (isset($permissions['comment.add'])) {
		$params['view'] = 'core:ItemAdmin';
		$params['subView'] = 'comment:AddComment';
		$params['itemId'] = $item->getId();
		$params['return'] = 1;
		$links[$item->getId()][] =
		    array('text' => $this->translate('add comment'),
			  'params' => $params);
	    }

	    if (isset($permissions['comment.view'])) {
		$params['view'] = 'core:ItemAdmin';
		$params['subView'] = 'comment:ShowComments';
		$params['itemId'] = $item->getId();
		$params['return'] = 1;
		$links[$item->getId()][] =
		    array('text' => $this->translate('view comment'),
			  'params' => $params);
	    }

change that block to this:

	if (GalleryUtilities::isA($item, 'GalleryPhotoItem')) {
	    if (isset($permissions['comment.add'])) {
		$params['view'] = 'core:ItemAdmin';
		$params['subView'] = 'comment:AddComment';
		$params['itemId'] = $item->getId();
		$params['return'] = 1;
		$links[$item->getId()][] =
		    array('text' => $this->translate('add comment'),
			  'params' => $params);
	    }

	    if (isset($permissions['comment.view'])) {
		$params['view'] = 'core:ItemAdmin';
		$params['subView'] = 'comment:ShowComments';
		$params['itemId'] = $item->getId();
		$params['return'] = 1;
		$links[$item->getId()][] =
		    array('text' => $this->translate('view comment'),
			  'params' => $params);
	    }
	}

You're basically adding this if block around the item links:

	if (GalleryUtilities::isA($item, 'GalleryPhotoItem')) {
       }

And commenting will only be available on individual items again.

I would love to see this as an option for the comment module.

the code in module.inc still looks vaguely like that.. put the "if (GalleryUtilities::isA....." line just above:

if (isset($permissions[$itemId]['comment.add'])) {

put the closing } after the next }

you might also want

if (!$item->getCanContainChildren()) {

instead of the check for GalleryPhotoItem.. this will omit the link for albums only. the previous code would omit the link for movies, etc and show it only for photos.
