Having both a 'generic' comment post box and a comment post box in "Leave a rating' has proven to be very confusing to members--and defeats the purpose of my site's galleries and albums--to rate and review. I would think that there would be a core setting to turn off general commenting, but I have not been able to find such a thing.
In the alternate, I edited the xfmg_comment_macros template to ignore that box as shown:
This begins around line 426 and through the end of the template.
Users are now compelled to use the Rate/Review button in order to leave comments. Those comments then appear normally in the position the general comment box formerly lived in.
However, this edit does a predictable thing that happens when cutting out a macro--errors are thrown in the templater.php file.
Any thoughts?
