JLex Comment Module Bugs (Pagination and Link to Comment)

Outbreaker
Hi,
I found 2 bugs in the JLex Comment Module:
1. When the Pagination option is enabled and someone clicks on a page then the site will scrol up to the top of the page and then the user has to scroll again down to the Module. :(
2. The module is ignoring the jLex Comment setting "Link to Comment (Fragment / Query String)". :ermm:

Pagination is simply for the user to see multiple comments on a module.


I thought this was for diplaying like 8 comments on every 10 module pages. So that people could browse more comments with having a comment list that goes to the bottom of the ocean.



I still don't understand what you mean. :D

Best regards,
Victor Nguyen.

Wait a second this paging option is meant for articles? What's the benefit of that? :blink: I thought this was for diplaying like 8 comments on every 10 module pages. So that people could browse more comments with having a comment list that goes to the bottom of the ocean. :silly:

The problem is if i click a this module page then i also get redirected to a new blog page. :silly:

Strangely, the site should actually reload the requested page's comments.
How can I check them?
I have checked at the home page, download page but everything is working properly.

The link part "/?start=X" is being use by Joomla to go to the next Blog page and the Module is using the same link structure.

Ah,... In case, you need to use "Pagination Prefix" field, example: "start". It will not affect to joomla blog.

Ah now it works. :cheerful: It would be very good to enter "comment" as a default prefix because otherwise is to technical and users will never figure this out and simply think is bugged and give up.

But here are still 2 important thing to add:

1. Adding a Max Paging Buttons option to show the paging like this [1 2 3 ... 10] when the option is set to 3. This option could also be added to the jLext Comment itself, it dose it by default with 4,
2. A way to fix the auto scroll up to the top when klicking on a comment module page. A long time ago i saw that JComments did this with JavaScript to avoid this problem.

All parameters I leave default according to Joomla. I'm not sure if this is good for SEO?

1. Adding a Max Paging Buttons option to show the paging like this [1 2 3 ... 10] when the option is set to 3. This option could also be added to the jLext Comment itself, it dose it by default with 4,
=> I cannot interfere with it. It is using Joomla's default pagination. Only the template override can change it, but it also changes the entire website.

2. A way to fix the auto scroll up to the top when klicking on a comment module page. A long time ago i saw that JComments did this with JavaScript to avoid this problem.
=> I see what you mean but I still haven't found a way to solve it.

It's a bit strange that I cannot find any <a> tag in the module that you sent. I think it comes from the main extension or they may use ajax 8-).

I don't think there will be a SEO conflict by setting the module default comment prefix to "comment". Better than to have some weird paging function. :silly: But all in all the paging option is not really usable when it always scrolls up. JoomGallery has done this with jQuery on it's module. ;)

Below is a live demo on how they did it on thier module in 2009. But i'm think there are many other ways to do it in 2023. :D

They load the whole content and use javascript for pagination. This was not the intention when I added this feature.
If the site has hundreds of comments, I can't use this method.
