Yes,

I am using a LDAP to authenticate

I made this change on asual-entry.vm:

#if ($BLOJSOM_USER_AUTHENTICATED)
.... perform comment FORM assembly
#else
<div class="label">Please <a href="#BlogAdminURL()/?action=page&flavor=admin">login</a> first.</div>
#end

BUT :-)
This send me to the login page and after that I am redirected to admin console.

Hi Igor,
Yes that is the correct variable. You will need to edit the .vm files like ocean-entry.vm and asual-entry.vm where all the blog posts and comment boxes appear (there is a loop that iterates over the array of entries i think).

The authenticated user will not be able the post. I think the default setting (david please correct me if im wrong) is that only the owner of the blog can post entries.

What are you authenticating against? I was using LDAP. If you're using Database there might be a problem - Say person A has written a blog and person B wants to comment. Person B needs to be present in the DBUser table of the database even though he is JUST a reader and not a blog owner!! In LDAP you obviously don't face this issue because the person reading will definitely figure somewhere in the tree just by being a part of the organization or entity that uses the LDAP server...

Cheers,
Shalini

Hi Shalini

thank for your quick answer!
I found this variable BLOJSOM_USER_AUTHENTICATED, I will try to use it.

By edit the templates you mean edit the .vm files for each theme?

On more question: the users that need to authenticate to comment should not be able to make a blog post, and are not supposed to be a blogger, they will be just authenticated visitors, by editing these vm files thing will work like that?

Thanks again!
Igor Regis

Hi Igor,

I had done something similar but unfortunately I don't have the code now. Its very simple.
Just edit the templates so that the comment form is only shown if the person is logged in and not otherwise. You can figure out if a person is logged in by a context variable.. you'll get it from the variable name..i have forgotten.. sorry haven't worked on blojsom in ages!! But look up BlojsomServlet.java and you will see it there just after the authentication is done...

You can actually even put a login form in the templates that directs to BlojsomServlet and then redirect it back to the same page... that way your reader can login and comment....

Cheers,
Shalini

Hi,

I need to force users to get authenticated before make a comment to any post of my blogs, I searched for blojsom plugins that could force authentications for each comment operation, but I haven't found anything.

I read the CommentAPIServlet source code and figured out that it fire comment events, but only after the database operation.

Are there any clue of how can I get it working? How strategy can I use to build my plugin to do that?

Any helps will be welcome!

Igor Regis

Ya i've faced this issue...
There is more than one place you need to check in the BlojsomServlet.java so that it redirects you back to the same page where u wanna comment though... i'm sorry i've forgotten.. :) But look like a hawk at the BlojsomServlet file...
