SID-01051: Remain on page after included comment thread page is updated

Hi, I have a TWiki page, lets call it the CURRENT page, that includes, with the %INCLUDE{}% function. , a page with a comment thread plugin. The problem is, is that when I leave comment, I get redirected to the included page instead of remaining on the CURRENT page. So the question, is there a way for a user to remain or be redirected back to the CURRENT page upon leaving a comment in this fashion?

Also, keep in mind I would still want to be able to view the included comment page directly at any time without being re-directed.

Thanks,

Greg

Use the redirectto parameter to the save script, see TWikiScripts

Thanks, does this require creating a custom comment template then?

Since my included comment topic doesn’t contain a form, I tried placing the redirect in the comment plugin but with no luck:

%COMMENT{type="tableappend" name="redirectto" value="%BASEWEB%.StayOnCurrentTopic"}%

Yes, you need to custom CommentPlugin template. The BlogAddOn does what you want, e.g. post to a different topic and redirect to the original topic. We have installed that add-on in our twiki.org Blog. The relevant topics are Blog.UserCommentsTemplate and Blog.BlogPostViewTemplate.
