How to make all replies stay open?

Does anyone know how to make all replies stay open?  It's difficult to recognize replies because it's collapsed as a default.

.

I prefer to keep them open as the default like this

Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm talking about profile comments and Walls. Sorry

I asked the same question.  Let me know if you get the answer.

the js needs to be onload instead of onklik

view source...find where 1 replies is  the little js that runs it has onclik  find it change to onload.

@mrpowless

Thanks for your reply.  I know what you're talking about but I'm not sure which js file I should look at. It would help a lot.  Thanks

anyone?  I still haven't solved this.

The function is in  /templates/base/scripts/BxBaseCmtsView.php , but  you can't just replace the onclick event handler with onload in this case


function _getRepliesBox (&$a) {
$sContentShow = _t((isset($a['cmt_type']) && $a['cmt_type'] == 'comment' ? '_Show N comments' : '_Show N replies'), $a['cmt_replies']);
$sContentHide = _t((isset($a['cmt_type']) && $a['cmt_type'] == 'comment' ? '_Hide N comments' : '_Hide N replies'), $a['cmt_replies']);
return '<a class="cmt-replies-show" href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="' . $this->_sJsObjName . '.toggleCmts(this, \'' . $a['cmt_id'] . '\'); return false;">'

There is a way to do it

open "/templates/base/scripts/BxBaseCmtsView.php" file and

find
$ret .= "</script>";

replace with below
$ret .= '$(function(){$(\'a.cmt-replies-show\').click();})</script>';

This will do the job

THAAANKS Kevin :)

Thanks Kevin!! It works great but it repeats like 5-8 times.  Look at the image... is there a way to stop from repeating?

Umm, it shouldnt repeat! let me check

Edit:: I checked, works just fine, anyone else tested it??

that's odd.  I use mac browsers, Safari and Firefox.

This worked for me but now I am unable to share a link or post a video on a users wall that already has replies.  If I try on wall that doesn't have replies then I am able to do so fine.

Hi Kevin,

This code works great...thanks for posting.  However, I've noticed that it won't automatically open a reply that is nested in another reply.  For example, if I reply to a comment, it'll load perfectly.  However, if someone replies directly to my comment, then it won't load their comment automatically.  So, it looks something like this:

Expected result:

Comment 1

> Reply 1

> > Reply 2

Actual result:

Comment 1

> Reply 1

+1 replies

Does that make sense?

Anyone find a real way of doing this yet?

Initially keep the reply all open. ?

The solutions below dont work with the PAGINATION ajax, the others pages load will not open replies.

How can we specify to NOT hide the replies ?

Thanks for the help

The easy way was already provided.

There is no other easy way to make it all open...

yea the easy way works for initial reply/comment to wall post as mentioned

it opens automatically but when a reply/comment is made to a reply/comment then it is on a secondary level and does not open.

there must be a way to get the reply's to reply's to open just like the above fix gets the reply's to wall post to open

I can't translate the javascript Kevin??? are you still around??? this might be simple for you....

also was another thing... when you Reply to a Reply the comment box closes automatically but when you reply to a wall post it stays open (this is confusing for members because they may think the post did not go through)

Kevin any help with either of these?

or anyone?

thanks

I don't seem to be able to find a solution to this.  The answers here seem to address the problem after the replies are hidden.  What we need to do is to not hide the replies in the first place then we don't have to force a show toggle.  So where do we go from here?

I've been looking for a fix that will show all comments and replies with no-nesting-hiding for over 2 years. I can't believe that a 'social' script would have this since it inhibits social interaction. Weird.

If Dolphin can't give at least the option to show all comments instead of hiding them away, someone should create a mod. I'd pay for it in a heartbeat. (IF it works)

This was one of the first complaints I received from the test users on the site I am building.  If the replies are nested to any level, you are clicking like crazy to get them open.

I do have to wonder if the developers of Dolphin have spent any time using social networks
