user comment module: is this really all there is?

Issue Summary

Judging by the issue queue, this module doesn't work well and is not maintained
(last commit was 26 weeks ago). Is there an alternative way to do the following:

Supposing you have a site where you've given some managers in a company their own blogs.
Authenticated users can post comments to the blogs. How can the managers edit and delete
comments on their own blog through the front end (like they can do with nodes)?

The core content management -> comments approval page is very inadequate for multiple blogs.
How does everyone manage??!

Thanks for any solutions or ideas.

bump

I've seen the 'comment as node' module.
That may have solved the problem, but it looks terribly buggy.

Honestly, do most drupal sites really allow perhaps dozens of bloggers and authors
into the admin backend to moderate comments? Frankly I find that astounding.

#2

I'm curious if you found any solution to this Anti :) I'm wondering the same thing myself about how to allow node authors the ability to moderate only their own comments, instead of the entire site's

#3

No, I never did. I just can't believe that people can't moderate their own blogs.
I've said this, time and time and time again, for all drupal's genius, there is a hell of a lot of silliness also.

#4

i thought this module is what it's all about? node author are able to edit/delete comments in their own nodes.

#5

Good luck with it.
Looking at the issue queue and commits, I certainly would install this on a live site.

And even if you do get this module working, it is still ridiculous that drupal doesn't
have proper, stable comment moderation built into in core.

Sorry for lag responding to this. Some users rewrote the module to fix a lot of the bugs and it's now the 6.x-2.x-dev branch.

#7

Thanks for your work on it.
Would you say it's stable enough for a live site yet?

#8

@-anti- it was tested by the community and seemed to be fine when I installed on a vanilla drupal installation (see issue here: http://drupal.org/node/469478), but your particular case may vary depending on what modules and theme(s) you have installed, so I highly recommend installing it on a test version of your site before rolling out on production.
