New Extension: Goto Comment

Responding to a request in the EE forums, Cody Lundquist (CodysPlace.com in the EE forums), put together a simple, yet useful, extension called Goto Comment. The extension automatically scrolls down to the last submitted comment, so the commenter is greeted with the published version of the comment they just submitted. You have to place a single EE tag inside your comment entries tag pair and the extension does the rest.

I’ve tested this extension and it works as expected. I haven’t tested it, however, in every possible situation (e.g. with comment approval turned on). I did notice that it produces an empty anchor tag, which will probably not pass validation tests.

Great idea! I’ve tried it but it seemed to have a problem with entries that have not been commented yet. I git an error message about an undefined comment_id.

Sounds similar to this extension by Matthew Pennell.

I wish to applaud the goto comment idea for it definitely makes communication very easy. I would however wish you would test extension for different circumstances before suggesting it for use this would be of great benefit to all of us. Thanks
