CoComment for CS2007 Made Easy

by DRohm 11. June 2007 16:53

If you don't know what CoComment is, be sure to follow the link and find out. It's an easy way for you to keep track of your conversations that you have on the net (replies to forums, blogs, etc...). Back when I was running CS 2.x, I had CoComment setup with my installation so that users who were posting replies to my site could easily authenticate with CoComment so that it could track their conversations. I never got around to figuring that out for CS 2007, but luckily I didn't have to - Thomas Freudenberg did all the work! He created a dll that you drop into your bin folder and add one line to ~/App_Browsers/default.browser:

<adapter controlType="CommunityServer.Blogs.Controls.WeblogPostCommentForm"

        adapterType="ThomasFreudenberg.CS2007.WeblogPostCommentFormAdapter, ThomasFreudenberg.CS2007" />

The beauty of adding his code to a control adapter is that he just specifies which controls need to be customized.  There isn't a need to modify any blog pages or controls.  Very clean.
