ok here is my problem.
I'd like my users to only see just the subject and summary of a new WP article and then redirect them streight to the forum for complete reading and commenting.I dont want them to open the full article in WP but rather in SP.
What do you suggest in order to force them to go straight from the summary of an article to the complete one on SP and commenting there?
Thanks a lot for your help in this one
Not sure how to answer. I assume this is a blog linking related question.
The title of the topic says 'disabling WP comments' but then the post content asks something else... So - if you want to disable WP comments then can you do that either in the blog post itself when you create it or you can turn them off completely in the WP admin (Settings > Discussion).
And the SP blog linking plugin includes the option to display a link to the forum topic.
So can you explain further what you are really asking for?

Sorry for not being clear on the title.
What I really need to do is forcing users to bypass alltogether the WP full article read so that they have to go to the forum for finishing reading. The way WP is setup right now doesn't allow to do that as far as I know. As a matter of fact when you land on the home page where all summeries of articles are displaid, once you click on one of them youre are redirected to the ful WP article to complete reading.
I know I can have a link saying that you can actually further discuss the article in the forum, but it is mandatory, infact they can decide not to click on the forum link and rather go to the WP full article instead..
I'd like do convoy all the traffic and activity streight into SP from the article summary.
Sorry for my English being so bad but I hope I did make a point.
Thanks for your time
OK - I understand.
This would require editing the WP theme templates to remove the current link to the blog post and replace it with a link to the forum topic. There are template tags available for this - notably:
spBlogTopicLink($postid, $show_img);
which could be utilised for this. This requites the post id to be passed in which is available within the WP template post 'loop'.
