What is the maintenance status of this module? I am looking at integrating it with Text Review (which would make #559004: A patch to make the module work with Diff no longer necessary), but if this module is abandoned, that won't be very useful.

The planned module updates and fixes have been stalled for a while because of other projects, but the module hasn't been abandoned. I still plan to add Diff integration so that it's present in the Comment Revisions interface (even without Text Review) but it would be an optional feature.

By 'integrating' do you mean that your module would add a link to the Comment Revisions tabs to show diffs on behalf of comment revisions? If so, I can have Comment Revisions note the existence of Text Review and let that module handle it.

By integration I mean that comment revisions would be exposed as text sources to Text Review, so all review methods can automatically be applied to revisions as well.

There is no page to select the revisions to compare yet, but I'm going to add it real soon, so Text Review can fully 'compete' with Diff.module.

Also, what about a Drupal 7 port? I'd hate to have to remove Comment Revision integration from Text Review 7.x-1.x after I just added it for 6.x-1.x.

Kick. It would be incredibly awesome to use comment revisions for Text Review (which means comments can be compared to previous revisions during comment previews, but also on a separate page), but I'm sorry to say I'm not convinced this module is actively maintained or even actively looked at by maintainers.

I added integration, although it might be removed again before the final release, depending on the maintenance status of Comment Revisions.

FYI: I started the D7 port and removed the Comment Revisions integration. Would be great if I could add it back in in the next month or two.

Integration with Text Review should be moved into a new issue - feature request. Lets keep the upgrade simple so that it gets done sooner. Then we can mod it. Thanks

Learning all about Entities for the D7 port, and should have it pretty soon. Some bits of the D7 port will be back-ported to the D6 module. For example, using comment_save() instead of db_query()...

The first thing that impresses me is I see that Entities have Revision functionality already implemented - so really the D7 module should be a pretty lightweight wrapper on the built-in abilities of D7.

Pls advise, any progress or alternative?

Hello,

is there a plan to port this? I my opinion revisons in the forum only make sense if there is a comment revision too.

Best regards
Frank

+1 with Frank on this. Hoping there will be a D7 port soon

I'm working on a port, only views support missing now. I'll share it for testing soon.

Update: Views integration done. A little testing and code review before I share it.

Here is the Drupal 7 port of comment revision module! Please test it, and give a feedback.

I would like to thank the basic idea for attiks, the developer of user_revision module. Meanwhile in porting I've reworked their code a lot of places, but user_revision gives me the idea how to make comment_revision work.

Hello mxr576,

tanks so much for your port... I will test it the next days...

Best regards
Frank

That's what I like about open source, it's not all up to me! I look forward to your test results, and if all is well I'll publish it as soon as possible. I was going to implement the D7 version in the same general way that node.module manages revisions, using the built-in D7 revision system. I got a basic start but never got around to the necessary delving.

Hello thinkyhead,

I installed the module but I did not find the place to configure it :-( Can you tell me where I can find it?

Best regards
Frank

Hello fraweg!

What would you like to configure? This port hasn't got any configure interface yet. After you switch on the module the revision system is working, only permissions needs to be set up properly for user groups.

Hello mxr576

Thanks for your answer! I will have a look on it ...

Best regards
Frank

Hello fraweg!

Ok, I'll waiting for your test results. If the module will work properly we should consider to release the 7.x-1.0-dev version for more test results. What do you think thinkyead?

Best wishes

Hello fraweg,

thanks for feedback! Not afraid to submit bugreport if you found something wrong. :)

However bug reporting would be much more easier if we release the 7.x port. Thinkyhead what do you think?
