view=flat

Title:
view=flat

Area:
comment pages

Summary:
Can we get a link to open the comment page into flat view so all the comments are opened? Very useful on the comment heavy posts.

Description:
Right now, we can open comment pages in my style or light style. If we could add flat view, it would make it easier to keep up with epic long comment pages. Right now to do this, we have to open in light style then put the ?view=flat in the address and refresh. A link might save some time. It would be up to the reader to follow where the new comments fit in the overall page but for those who are willing to go there, it would be an easy step.

Regardless if you implement this request, you guys rock. Thanks!

Well, it might take a little while before it's a good idea to implement. Someone else right now is working on moving the current comment pages in talkread.pl into an S2 style wrapped in the site theme, and I don't think I'd want to do this bug until they were finished with that, because it might work off of their changes.

That's okay. We can start with one internet baby and go from there.

I did do most of the work to make a search module for journal styles this weekend. I'm kind of pleased with that! And I'm going to make the site menus available as a module, too, and make polls downloadable as CSV. So maybe there are plenty of internet babies to go around before view=flat!

Wow, there was enough geek sex right there to get a few of us internet pregnant. Well done!
