Not sure what you have in mind, but I am looking for a way how to make a view of comments for only one content type ("wallpaper"), and I can't seem to get it - there are no filters accessible in the Vieews 2 interface for that.

Do you think that cold be possible using this module, since it makes comments into nodes?

tommytom: columns? i'm not sure I understand what you mean. database columns? layout columns?

Noira: This indeed can be done in views 2.
- create a new comments view
- add an argument for Comment: Node, label it something like "Parent node".
- add a filter for Node: Type, select "Parent node" in the relationship drop-down, and select the node type you want.
- continue configuring the view as necessary.

I need to create a content type that enables to write comments not in one comment box but in 4 different comments boxes.

For example you have a node about a song and you want that people can write comments about the lyrics in the song (first comment box) or the beat (second comment box) or about the artist (third comment box) etc...

with Autocreate Node Reference it's possible to create a content type that autocreates (for example) 4 new nodes with comments but it doesn't display the new nodes in the parent node, it shows only links to the subnodes.

do you know what I mean ?

Now I know it's possible to do it, but how to display the full node instead of the links ?

Maybe sombody know another module that is better for this issue ?

I'm still not sure what you are trying to achieve, but from what I gather, the only way you could do this with nodecomment is to add a textfield for each of the textareas that you need to your comment node type, then conditionally display them in the node template.

I have a VERY similar issue. I would like to display comments in 2 columns. So that the user will see a forum topic and choose to comment on the left or the right.

Thank you in advance

Roger, imagine you have a content type for debating an issue. You will have to have 2 comments columns so user can add Pros (to the left comment column) and Cons (right comment column) comments.

maybe it would work by cloning the comments module . Then nodes could have more than one comment box.
Do you think it could work ?
