Okay, my B2 is installed in a separate directory to my main site. I have the blog as a PHP include on the index file of the main site, but when I click on 'comments', it'll display 'page not found' because it's trying to look for 'commentspopupwhatever.php' in the directory my main site is in.

My question is; how/ where do I edit the settings so the comments link to the b2 directory?

Thanks. If you need the code, just ask Smile

Using the include causes these sort of tricky tricks things.. Let's see..

Maybe you should activate the b2commentspopup in an alternative fashion? How about an ordinary <a href=""> link? I thinK

Code:
<a href="/yourdir/b2commentspopup.php?p=<?php the_ID() ?>&c=1" target="_blank">link</a>


the_ID is the number of the post, you see, and as long as this is kept within the b2loop.

To open as a pop-up (and I'm merely idling here) you could do this:

Code:
<A href="javascript:;" onClick="OpenBrWindow('/yourdir/b2commentspopup.php?p=<?php the_ID() ?>&c=1','Comments','toolbar=no,location=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes','400','350','true')">


Now, the last three variables: width, height, the pop-up is centered acc. to screen (true/false).

(if you use this last one, remember to add this in the <head>)

Code:
<script language="JavaScript1.2">

/*
Open Centered Popup Window Script-
© DHTML Shock (www.dhtmlshock.com)
To add more shock to your site, visit www.DHTML Shock.com
*/

function OpenBrWindow(theURL,winName,features, myWidth, myHeight, isCenter) { //v3.0
  if(window.screen)if(isCenter)if(isCenter=="true"){
    var myLeft = (screen.width-myWidth)/2;
    var myTop = (screen.height-myHeight)/2;
    features+=(features!='')?',':'';
    features+=',left='+myLeft+',top='+myTop;
  }
  window.open(theURL,winName,features+((features!='')?',':'')+'width='+myWidth+',height='+myHeight);
}

</script>


I stole the idea from http://www.dhtmlshock.com

Thanks for your reply.

Does this mean I have to do it manually for each entry, or does it automatically detect the ID if I put <?php the_ID() ?> in there?

Sorry, I'm a b2 newbie.

Whatever variable written to be inside the b2loop which is PLACED within the b2loop will be co-ordinated with the data in the designated databases.

In other words: the id will change for each post by itself:)
It's wonderful, isn't it?

I'm not sure wether this is the best solution, I see it as an alternative solution. Should work as good as anything, tho.

(The b2-loop is the cluster of codes concerning the actual print of the blog. Variables and such can be found at http://cafelog.com/readme.html)

It's not working...

Code:

Posted at <?php the_time() ?>. <A href="javascript:;" onClick="OpenBrWindow('b2/b2commentspopup.php?p=<?php the_ID()

?>&c=1','Comments','toolbar=no,location=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes','400','350','true')">Comments</a>

Seems to work just fine to me???
You're using the comments_popup_link, right? "My" script don't count comments but yours do. Stick with it!

Should change the look of the template, though:)

I tried other options myself, and changed the script. But the code you gave me, didn't work.

Thanks anyway

Strange. Thought it would.

It wasn't a traditional solution, though. Just wanted to see wether it worked or not. And it really should.

I just saw on another page that some versions of the b2commentspopup.php don't allow direct linking. Mine do. Yours may not. Which should explain why it didn't work.
