Got that!

Apart from that, can you just confirm if Enquirer gets an email if the answer is updated? If not, then it should be as that would be the only way right now that can tell Enquirer about any change.

The enquirer doesn't yet, but we'll make this happen.

*3 weeks later, after comments to comments get implemented* Now, what do we do about comments to comments to comments?
Seriously, though, I'd just inform everybody on the comment thread that a new comment was posted (including the poster of the original question/answer). Either that, or leave a reply button by each comment. The comment will then be placed at the bottom of the comment list, and only the person who asked/answered the question (which includes those who edited the question/answer) and the person who posted the comment being replied to will be notified.
Either that, or you could make it a nested thread system, with different views (the default view being the non-indented list of comments with newer comments at the bottom).

What's this suppose to do?
I was expecting to be instantly transported (beam me up scotty style) to the dungeon of CP central where I would have to overcome several security features ranging from arrows being shot at my head to laser grids to hordes of ninja hamsters after which I would be able to partake in the top-secret discussions of CP.
Imagine my disappointment when it did absolutely nothing

Go to any question in QA.
On the right there is a menu 'Tools'
In that menu there is a link 'Discuss'
Or am I seeing things I shouldn't be seeing which would indicate there really is such a dungeon
|

|

Ah of course. We'll get that cleaned up - thanks! And no that is not the way to the dungeon .

Crap, back to searching then.
But at least you acknowledged there is a dungeon I'm 1 step closer to the truth

You'll need to pickup the silver chalice and the gold rings before you proceed to the dungeon. Once locked inside, they are the only way out.

Ah a experienced dungeoneer
I shall go pick those up right away

Don't forget to drop the magazine in the lunch room so I can read it between tweeks of the Comments.

Are we supposed to report bugs / suggestions for QA as comments now or just edit the main post?
|
|
|
|
|
Good question. I've been thinking about this for a bit and I think it might be best to just report all bugs/suggestions here. Much more eyes here. I'll adjust the Bug List[^] and Suggestions/TODOs[^] myself.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah but you'll have to adjust the 'report bug' and 'suggestions' links on the QA pages to point here then
|
|
|
|
|
right.
I do want the links to go to those tips/tricks though. I'll adjust the description to redirect to this forum. Hope that works out.
|
|
|
|
|
That's another way to go

I guess you have tried adding comments to an accepted answer. Because it's working fine everywhere else.

It was not accepted as an answer that time.
|
|
|
|
|
Oh okay. In that case let the admin check it (only if it has been logged ).
[Edit]
I am facing the same problem now.
Help soon or I will have to put 'fake answers' again.
[/Edit]
[Edit2]
I think I got it. It might be happening due to slow internet connection. As soon as the normal speed was restored, I could add comments.[/Edit2]

Yes, that could do it. If the response is not received, then the UI is not updated. However, the database should be updated. A page refresh should retrieve the new comments.
|
|
|
|
|
I refreshed the page many times after updation.But it didn't worked.
|
|
|
|
|
No, page refresh was also not working.
In my case, I guess due to very slow internet connection it was failing, but otherwise it is fine.

I just tried to add a comment, and "it worked on my machine"
Do you have JavaScript disabled? There is a known issue with adding comments without JavaScript which has been fixed for the next update.
|
|
|
|
|
I am using Firefox and javascript is always enabled.After that i tried to add comment on some other QA and it was working fine.
