Forum replies to replace comments section

I like the ability to feed individual posts into the Forum for discussion. Has an extension for the inverse been implemented yet?

I’d like to be able to replace the native WP comments section with the comments section already created by the plugin which adds a new topic with text to the forum.

Hello @matthewbartlett

Currently it is not planned to let the forum “replace” the comment-section of blog-posts because they are two entirely different things. However, if you want to include a certain topic at the end inside of a post you can use shortcode-parameters as shown here:

https://asgaros.com/support/topic/extend-shortcode-to-show-specific-content-only/

With some coding-experience this process can also get automated so that after a post-creation a new topic is created, the ID is getting fetched and the required topic-shortcode is appended to the post.

I have a weird issue happening.

On my members forum, I want to have support topics for each of the Modules in each of my courses.

On my lesson pages (created with LearnDash & Elementor) I want to display the topic for the appropriate course/lesson/module.

I can get the correct topic to display. However, if a user replies to the topic from the lesson page, the comment doesn’t post and they are redirected to a url that doesn’t exist.

To sum up:

I have a topic on this URL: https://reallyeasyguitarlessons.com/members-forum/top/51/

I have this short code [forum topic="51"] on this URL (which displays perfectly):  https://reallyeasyguitarlessons.com/courses/the-blues-guitar-soloing-road-map/lessons/module-00start-here/topic/lesson-01-introduction/

When a user replies to the topic on the short coded URL, they are redirected to this URL which doesn’t exist: https://reallyeasyguitarlessons.com/lesson-01-introduction/top/51/

Hello @jchorba14

This looks for me like the plugin cannot correctly recognize the permalink-settings from LearnDash in case it gets implemented via a shortcode in Elementor. This will be very difficult to debug because its an issue which happens in combination with two other plugins. If I have the chance to reproduce this, I will let you know.
