Allow user to edit their own comments (not only ...)

[Bodyworks]

Hi together,
i need a MOD to allow users to edit or delete their given comments. Not only restricted to comments concerning their own pictures, like in control panel possible.
Users might correct their type mismatches, when they are recognized after posting. Up to now there is no possibility to correct their comment or to delete it. Only admin can do that.

I think this is a little effort to do that but i'm not familiar to php.  
Could anybody give me an advice?

It would be great to alter comment_bit.html in that way:

Code: [Select]

{if allow_user_editcomment}{user_editcomment}{endif allow_user_editcomment}

There also should be a section in admin control panel to switch this functionality on and off.
Section: Allow users to edit/delete their comments generally.

Thanks a lot.

Ooops,
this is really a very complex MOD which i don't need, because i won't give registered users that amount of freedom.
Would it be possible for you V@no to extract the neccessary pieces of code in member.php to manage what i want.

Thank you in advance.

then, try this:
open /member.php
find 4 times:

Code: [Select]

$user_info['user_id'] != $comment_row['user_id'] && $user_info['user_level'] != ADMIN
*this is just a part of lines, all u need to find
replace with:

Code: [Select]

$user_info['user_id'] != $comment_row['user_id'] && $user_info['user_id'] != $comment_row['comment_user_id'] && $user_info['user_level'] != ADMIN
*as I said above, this should be found/replaced 4 times

open /details.php
find:

Code: [Select]

     elseif ($is_image_owner) {
        $admin_links .= ($config['user_edit_comments'] != 1) ? "" : "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."member.php?action=editcomment&amp;".URL_COMMENT_ID."=".$comment_row[$i]['comment_id'])."\">".$lang['edit']."</a>&nbsp;";
        $admin_links .= ($config['user_delete_comments'] != 1) ? "" : "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."member.php?action=removecomment&amp;".URL_COMMENT_ID."=".$comment_row[$i]['comment_id'])."\">".$lang['delete']."</a>";
*there is another part very simular to this, make sure this is the one
replace it with:

Code: [Select]

     elseif ($is_image_owner || $comment_user_id == $user_info['user_id'] && $user_info['user_level'] >= USER) {
        $admin_links .= ($config['user_edit_comments'] != 1) ? "" : "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."member.php?action=editcomment&amp;".URL_COMMENT_ID."=".$comment_row[$i]['comment_id'])."\">".$lang['edit']."</a>&nbsp;";
        $admin_links .= ($config['user_delete_comments'] != 1) ? "" : "<a href=\"".$site_sess->url(ROOT_PATH."member.php?action=removecomment&amp;".URL_COMMENT_ID."=".$comment_row[$i]['comment_id'])."\">".$lang['delete']."</a>";

Hi V@no,

I changed all code as you told but it doesn't work.
The Links (edit / delete) appear in comment box (like admin_links), but when the user who has posted the comment clicks either on edit or delete, nothing happens. Only the screen is refreshed.

There must be a mistake.
Have you any idea?

All code changes are well done and in general-settings 'edit and delete of comments' is allowed.

But this is my reason of this modification:
1. user edit own comment under his own image: OK
1a. user delete own comment under his own image:  OK

2. when a user try to edit or delete a comment under an image of another user:
when clicking the edit or delete link, the site refreshes to the index-page

3. I don't like the function that I can edit or delete comments from other users under my own images.

I like that users can edit or delete their comments under every image, but not comments from other users under their own image and I thought this is possible with this mod? Am I wrong?

actualy that how it works by default...
members can edit their own comments under any images, as long as its allowed by the settings.

Hm, i have done the MOD and get the same result as Bodyworks write above 
Is there a change in the chmod´s of files or directories on the server  required ?

kind regards

[V@no]

did u changed 4 lines in member.php as discribed?
please post the complete changed lines from your file.

[Volker]

Yes, I´ve did it by search and replace - think it will be correct ?

Here is the complete code of my member.php :

[REMOVED]

[V@no]

sorry, I didnt ask for entire member.php
just the 4 lines u were u supposed to change. nothing more.

[Volker]

okay, it was my fault to post the complete code  sorry for that and thanks for removing 

But it seems that I´m not the only one hwo has problems with that MOD. I´ve replaced the code in the members.php 4 times and I change the details.php
After that it display the right functions, so I think it´s a good basis 
But for the user the ability to execute is still missing, so I think there is something more to do. but what?

[V@no]

but what?

trust me, nobody knows untill u show the lines u've changed in member.php

[Volker]

I´ve done it exactly as it is described...
In my member.php it is Line 59, 96, 141 and 189

here the code off the full line (4 times exactly the same)

Code: [Select]

  if (!$comment_row || $comment_row['user_id'] <= USER_AWAITING || ($user_info['user_id'] != $comment_row['user_id'] && $user_info['user_id'] != $comment_row['comment_user_id'] && $user_info['user_level'] != ADMIN)) {

I think the code works well, cause it shows the edit-and-delete-command in the comments to the user. But if a user klick on "edit" nothing happen....
