Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I actually think this might be an Advanced Forum thing, but if it's not let me know: I mentioned it in this thread in the Panels issue queue: http://drupal.org/node/488644
Basically, we have a panels system task handler to override comment/reply/% and display the comment form within our forum. it works perfectly in terms of showing the form, and if you post a comment, it correctly posts to the database and will appear in the forum, but you're not taken to the thread after posting, the comment form itself reloads.
So I guess what I'm asking is - is this something that can even be done, or do I have to wait until advanced forum 2.0 version is more stable (we're supposed to go into beta with our site in the next 2 weeks)? I'm assuming the redirect is happening with advanced forum, but I'm not really sure.

michelleThere is currently no redirect on comment submission in AF and I'm not adding new features to 1.x, so this would have to go into 2.x. To be honest, I'm not even sure this is something AF should handle... This Panels/Comments integration is pretty general, not forum specific, and I think any special re-directing should be done either along with the integration code or in something outside of AF.
I'll leave it active for a while, but I suspect this is going to be a won't fix unless you have a good reason why AF should add the redirect.

friolator commentedthanks for the quick response - what do you think the rough timeframe for a beta of 2.0 is looking like? I'm trying to decide if it makes sense for us to start thinking about moving to that & nodecomments this summer before we launch in the Fall. We're doing a small beta program for a few weeks before a soft launch in August. If you think it might be stable enough for moderate usage in August, maybe it just makes sense for us to begin switch over now
We should be able to do everything we need to within Panels once AF 2.0 is out and replies are node-based.
Thanks!

michelleMy goal is to have 2.0 or at least RC in September so I can start porting it to D7 ASAP. I can't make any guarantees... This is all unpaid work done here and there when the kids are occupied so stuff often takes longer than I like. But I'm really trying to make that goal... Mostly because I'd like to stop working on AF and actually finish the site that spawned it and keeps taking a back seat to it. :)

friolator commentedunderstood - and thanks for all your work! It sounds like your schedule and ours are more or less the same, so maybe it makes sense for us to seriously consider implementing AF 2 sooner rather than later.
One other general question - assuming we're on AF 2 before drubb is done, would we have a fairly straightforward upgrade path to that, because drubb is based on AF 2? Ultimately, drubb is where we want to be.

michelleWell, DruBB is mostly just auto configuration stuff. It helps you set up the forum and sets settings for you. So you don't really "upgrade" to it. It's more like utility to jump start setting up a forum.

friolator commentedAhh, ok. thanks!

michelleDoesn't sound like there's any reason for this to get added. Just need to get 2.x cruising along so people can have the nodecomment goodness. :)
