Is there any way to remove the "add comment" link from teasers?
I dont think it makes sense for people to comment on something they havent read yet.
Thanks

Comments
brute force way
In comment.module find the section that starts:
if ($teaser) {// Main page: display the number of comments that have been posted.
comment out everything inside of the if statement.
This potentially makes it confusing if the teaser is the entire post, since a user would have to click "read more" to add comments when there wasn't anything more. You could change the "read more" text to be "Read more or add a comment" or something like that.
Well
Well, I was hoping there was a way to do it only if the teaser was not the full post, and in a way that did not involve modifing the core code. I think for now I will leave it the way it is, but I do appreciate your response very much.
Thank you.
No confusion
The users won't know there is no more to read until they're already there. But then they will find the add comment option.
I started with Drupal in 2007 and then my life got stuck...
Try to insert this in
Try to insert this in template.php of your theme:
function phptemplate_links($links) {if (count($links)>0){
if (isset($links[node_read_more]) && isset($links[comment_add])){
unset($links[comment_add]);
}
}
return theme_links($links);
}
Tested with Drupal 6.9 Garland theme.
unset($links[comment_add]); does not work
I have tried this with phptemplate_links (generates errors) and themename_links (no errors but does not change output)... not sure why sorry :-)
Need to clear cache
Parent function works. You just need to flush cache before the function is activated.
Fix
The above code has more than a few error - namely, the function name and no string quotes, here's what worked for me :
function mytheme_links($links) {if (count($links)>0){
if (isset($links["node_read_more"]) && isset($links["comment_add"])){
unset($links["comment_add"]);
}
}
return theme_links($links);
}
you obviously need to substitute "mytheme" with your theme name, and clear caches before this works.
It's nice to be important,
but it's more important to be nice.
An addition
If it is desired to also hide the number of comments (that is displayed instead of the comment add link if the node already has comments) ..
<?phpfunction mytheme_links($links) {
if (count($links)>0){
if (isset($links["node_read_more"])){
if (isset($links["comment_add"])) {
unset($links["comment_add"]);
}
if (isset($links["comment_comments"])) {
unset($links["comment_comments"]);
}
}
}
return theme_links($links);
}
?>
this works
You can use hook_link_alter, but you need to add it to a module, not template.php
here's the code:
<?php/**
* Implementation of hook_link_alter
* Remove add comment link from teaser
**/
function modulename_link_alter(&$links, $node){
if( arg(0) == 'node' && is_numeric(arg(1)) ){
return; // halt if full page view
}elseif( ! empty($links['comment_add']) ){
unset($links['comment_add']);
}
}
?>
css for removing 'add new comment' link in teasers
I wanted to remove comment_add links from teasers too. And found this fix.
This may be specific to my theme (adapted from pixture_reloaded); but with the right first line, this will work in your style.css.
.node-teaser .actions .comment_add {
display: none;
}

Here's what I had to do for the teaser using the Zen page fyi...
I had to go all the way down to the element to control that add comment link...Looks like it's working on all browsers too. You'll also have to do it for the comment summary class; comment_comments
ul.links li.comment_add {
display:none;
}
ul.links li.comment_comments {
display:none;
}
I use the D7 Zen theme and
I use the D7 Zen theme and this is what worked for me. This hides the add comment:
.node-teaser .comment-add {
display: none;
}
And, while I was at it, I hid the 'login or register to post comment' in all my teaser nodes using the css below:
.node-teaser .comment_forbidden {
display: none;
}

Remove "add comment" from teasers not standard???
I agree with akael, comments on teasers do absolutely not make any sense, except in very rare occasions maybe. Shouldn't the comment settings offer this option standard?
Default comment setting:
o Disabled
o Read only
o Read/Write only on node
o Read/Write node & teaser (for those rare occasions...)
Or simply no comments on teasers by default.

I'm having the same
I'm having the same frustration. Not sure whether to leave it or hack around it, but this really should happen automagically or at least have a configuration somewhere. If "Read more appears", then add "new comment shouldn't".
yeah I agree the "add new
yeah I agree the "add new comment" thing on teasers should be an opt-in feature. An Easy fix is just to install the String Overrides module (http://drupal.org/project/stringoverrides) and replace the string "Add new comment" with nothing. That works nicely and doesn't involve any editing that will disappear with the next update...
Absolutely
I've been using Drupal for quite a while now and I've only just come to adding comments to pages. It's incredible that there's no simple way of removing the "add comment" from teasers. I personally can't think of an example where such behaviour would be desired.
you should just give up on
you should just give up on out of the box solution for drupal as they suck and lack options etc. just use views, panels, display suite and make your way hard to whatever you want, thats drupal way, hard but flexible other way just wont give you results you want.

D7 version
Thanks for this module, Jason--I don't know php (yet) and I'm wondering if you have updated this module to D7? I can figure out how to change the .info file by looking at other modules but don't know how to change the function. I'd be very grateful if you could help me. Thank you!
