Hi,
I'm trying to remove the requirement for commenters to input their email and URL when commenting on items in K2. I found a link elsewhere that suggested I remove 2 sections ( <label class="formEmail" and <label class="formUrl" ) from item_comments_form.php (winfoes.co.uk/joomla-faq/components/3-joomla-components/32-how-do-i-remove-url-field-from-k2-comments -oddly offline as I post this)

This removes the email and url fields from the comment form but comments then can't be posted as it needs text in all fields. Yes, there is text in both visible fields when I try to submit.

I'm hoping someone can help, unfortunately it is on an intranet site so you won't be able to view the live site.

I have attached the untouced item_comments_form.php as txt.

Thanks v much,
William

The easiest thing to do, which will let you add a lot more options, is to install the fox contact plugin. It's compatible with k2.

Thanks Kit, it looks powerful and I will look into it further but I am hoping to stay with K2 comments as I need easy access to the data relating to comments, and K2 does that nicely. I just would like to get rid of the email and url fields...

Holy cow, I just realized I didn't answer your question at all, and answered something else. :blush: I'm SO sorry! As for your question:

You have a couple of options here:

1. Open the file
components -> com_k2 -> models -> item.php

around line number 910 you should see:
