Discuss This!

AlexisWilke - June 19, 2008 - 22:10

This module allows for a useful connection between story/node content on your
site and forum discussions about that content. For each selected node type, the
module provides a Discuss This! link that will auto-generate a forum topic or
link to an existing one to allow users to discuss the story within the forums
rather than as standard comments.

There are a number of configuration options: the administrator can choose what
content types have the Discuss This! link enabled, and for each of these
content types, a default forum in which to create discussion topics. For each
node, the default forum can be overridden, or alternately a previously-created
forum topic can be selected to link to.

NB: The Drupal 6 version of this module is still under development, and is nearly ready for production yet. There is a problem with the posting that generates an unwanted node if the user is to skip posting his comment...

UPDATE: The D6 development now includes the code to avoid spiders adding posts automatically for nothing. Please use with caution and report any problem you encounter in the issue queue. Thank you!
