Read more sooner

Hi, we have hundreds of comments per posts. All comments are without pagination. This is good.

However, I want to shorten the list with the WP Discuz ‘Read More’ button.

But when I enable this, the read more button appears after 50 comments with their comments or so.

How can I make the list of comments before the Read More button shorter? I want to show the Read More button much sooner. I prefer after 1 or two comments and/or subcomments.

How can I set that?

Hi,

Change the value for the number of comments in the in Dashboard > Settings > Discussions admin page. More info here: https://wpdiscuz.com/docs/wpdiscuz-7/plugin-settings/comment-thread-displaying/#comments-pagination-type

Are you referring to the WordPress dashboard, or the WP Discuz Dashboard? Beause in WP Discuz, I cannot find such a setting. And in WP Discussion settings there is no such a value to be set.

But if you are referring to this setting in the WordPress Discussion settings:

“Break comments into pages with 6 top level comments per page and the first page displayed by default”

Then this does NOT work, because this relates to the TOP LEVEL comments.

Often, a first top level comment has 80+ sub comments. So the page will show all of these 80+ sub comments, and then the second top level comment, with all its sub comments.

No, no, no … This is not working.

I need a way to limit the amount of displayed comment, no matter if it’s a top level of sub level comment.

@marky554,

I may suggest you hide the replies using the “Display only parent comments and view replies ∨ button” option. More info here: https://wpdiscuz.com/docs/wpdiscuz-7/plugin-settings/comment-thread-displaying/#display-only-parent-comments-and-view-replies-%E2%88%A8-button

Ah, that is indeed a good solution. Thank you very much!

However, I tested it and the text string “View Replies” is not translated, while it IS translated in the translation file.

The text string “Hide Replies”, IS translated and does work correctly.

How can I translate the text string “View Replies”?

@marky554,

You can find and change the phrase in the Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Phrases > Comment admin page.

This FAQ also should be helpful for you: https://wpdiscuz.com/community/f-a-q/how-to-translate-wpdiscuz/
