Instead of hard-coding the scheme and host everywhere, use _path
methods to show relative URLs.
Except that our previous setting of
Rails.application.routes.default_url_options in
config.after_initialize made this moot because Rails inserts that
host into all _path helpers for some reason. So revert that
setting.
But then anything that wants an absolute URL doesn't know the
hostname and the root_url helper throws an exception. So make a
Rails.application.root_url shortcut to pass the per-app settings in
Rails.application to root_url.
Now we can just use _path helpers most places but still use _url
ones where we need them, such as in RSS views and e-mail templates.
when a comment has a few upvotes and one downvote, users tend to
focus too much on the one downvote and edit or reply and debate the
downvote. if more upvoted than downvoted, don't discourage the user
by pointing out the haters
always allow a user to "unvote" if they're previously downvoted, but
after a certain number of days, don't accept new downvotes
there isn't really any benefit in downvoting old stuff that is
already off the front pages or on a dead comment thread, other than
to maliciously strip karma for particular users
The reply link does not work on any page that isn't a story page because
it replies on the fact that a comment_form div exists on a page. That
form is the base comment field present on a story page. Therefore,
removing the link when the story is displayed next to the comment
selects for that case easily.
Closes#36 by virtue of removing the link.
a comment would get posted and then displayed inside the original
<form>. when that comment would get edited, its <form> would be
nested inside the original one, and on webkit browsers, submitting
the inside form would submit the outside one.
- add users.is_moderator and look at that for most things, not
is_admin
- make default user in readme be a moderator
- log moderator actions in story edits, comment
deletions/undeletions (and later, user disabling).
- remove ability for moderators to edit comments, there's really no
reason to.
