comments are being moved to be entities in place of annotations with elgg 1.9.

though i am uncertain what other changes are being included.

Thanks RvR & ura soul

i will back with more doubts if any :)

Why commnet cannot see each other for friends

First Iam sincearly thanks for the people who replied in this post

But  i had not recvd a specific anwer for the following question i raised 6 days before becuase studying things from different plugins is difficult

Why some of the river contents in elgg is not supporting comment feature ?

How can we add comment feature for all river contents ?

Why comments are not visible in public, if comments can be see only for the person who commented itself, what is the purpose of this feature ?

I can assure one thing that any doubt arise reg any application can be solved by its developers. I wonder here, there is no developers for giving an accurate answer regarding this question ? any valuable ideas are  appricieated ...

Comments are not available for thewire because thewire have its own feature ( reply to thread )

@Tommy In first, you need to add the comments feature for subtypes (e.g. videolist, thewire). Then comments form will be available via activity/river.

Or customize/overide the annotations

The main reason that all river items cannot be commented is that river items aren't entities. And only entities can be commented.

Example: You have a river item saying "Tommy created a group My group". If you comment it, what exactly are you commenting? Are you commenting the group? Or are you commenting the fact that someone created a group? The fact that someone created a group is not an entity, but just a notification about an action someone performed. So where exactly does the comment go?

Soon after that it's likely to see another related river item: "Juho joided the group My group". Again, there is no entity, but just a notification about an action that the user Juho performed.

Ok, let's say that instead of commenting the action, in both cases you are in fact commenting the group.

You add the comment "Welcome Juho!" to the second river item, the result will be this:

Tommy created a group My group
> Welcome Juho!

Juho joided the group My group
> Welcome Juho!

The comment appears in both river items because in both cases the entity being commented is the same group. Having that particular comment in the first item doesn't make sense.
