Hey Joe,

I was wondering if it would be possible to add a feature for the blog in the comments section such that the comments authors avatar shows up beside the post as it does in the forums.

Many blogs use this and I personally think it helps make comments more visually friendly. If its possible it would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Yeah, I should have specified I was talking about the internal comment system.

Thanks for your quick response again, I appreciate all the work you put into the mojoPortal community, it's a great service.

This setting is per post in the blog. You can enable or disable it in the blog edit page for a post.

If you want to turn it off on all existing posts you could run a query:

UPDATE mp_Blogs

SET ShowAuthorAvatar = 0

Hope that helps,

Joe

Yes since html content is just one item its a module setting there but for the blog we wanted to give more control per post. Similarly the map settings which used to be module settings in the blog are now per post making it possible to be more creative with maps in posts instead of all posts using the same settings.

Best,

Joe

Sorry but I don't have a way for you to set defaults.

Hi Jamie,

I've already implemented in the source code repository config settings for each of those checkbox defaults. You can find them in BlogConfiguration.cs near the bottom of the file. I've also set the default defaults to false for some of those such as show avatar instead of true like they were.

​So, if you build your own from source this is available today, otherwise it will be in the next release.

Best,

Joe
