Comments visible only to registered

[Lumino]

Hello!

My problem in Joomla 1.5:

1 - to show the articles to all users.
2 - to write and read the comments only to registered users.

Solutions?

With the current version of JComments and Joomla 2.5 you can configure what you desire in the backend permissions.  I'm not familiar with running JComments on 1.5 but you could wrap the div with class jc in tpl_index.php as follows.

Code:

<?php
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
if($user->id)
{ ?>
   <div id="jc"> // existing code
    ...  // exiting code
   </div>  // existing code
<?php } else {
    echo "You must be registered to view comments.";
} ?>

Add the first part above div id="jc" in the file and the last part after the closing div.

It does not work. Maybe I was wrong to enter the code.
Also I can not see the link to add comments.
You can modify the original code?

Code:

<?php

(defined('_VALID_MOS') OR defined('_JEXEC')) or die;

/*
*
* Main template for JComments. Don't change it without serious reasons ;)
* Then creating new template you can copy this file to new template's dir without changes
*
*/
class jtt_tpl_index extends JoomlaTuneTemplate
{
function render() 
{
$object_id = $this->getVar('comment-object_id');
$object_group = $this->getVar('comment-object_group');

// comments data is prepared in tpl_list and tpl_comments templates 
$comments = $this->getVar('comments-list', '');

// form data is prepared in tpl_form template.
$form = $this->getVar('comments-form');

if ($comments != '' || $form != '' || $this->getVar('comments-anticache')) {
// include comments css (only if we are in administor's panel)
if ($this->getVar('comments-css', 0) == 1) {
include_once (JCOMMENTS_HELPERS.DS.'system.php');
?>
<link href="<?php echo JCommentsSystemPluginHelper::getCSS(); ?>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<?php
if ($this->getVar('direction') == 'rtl') {
$rtlCSS = JCommentsSystemPluginHelper::getCSS(true);
if ($rtlCSS != '') {
?>
<link href="<?php echo $rtlCSS; ?>" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

I can't copy your code without it all showing up on one line, so I'll describe it specifically for the posting you made.  Insert the following code right after line 51 and before <div id="jc">.

Code:

<?php$user =& JFactory::getUser();
if($user->id)
{ ?>

Add the following code after line 87 and before <?php.  This is line 87 before the addition of the above code.

Code:

<?php } else {    echo "You must be registered to view comments.";} ?>

I do not have access to a 1.5 machine to test this, but it should work.

Nothing. It does not work.
Thanks tbritton.

Seems all correct. Articles are visible for everyone, only registered are allowed to read and write comments.
