Supplementation Features doesn't work well

Don't know if it is even a bug or I'm just too dumb :).

At least I found out that with the Moin 1.6beta there is a discussion / comments / supplementation feature (http://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/DiscussionAndOrCommentPages). So I configured my test site http://home.heavy.ch:8080 with

   supplementation_page = True
   supplementation_page_name = u'Kommentare'
   supplementation_page_template = u'KommentareVorlage'

Now I can click on the button comments (or in german Kommentare) and adding automatically a subpage like /discussion (or i defined as /Kommentare). I found out the following problems:

1. two comments
   the menubar tarts to makes two buttons (text links) for comments;

   • first always with the english name Comments and a link like http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy# ( wrong);

   • second with the local name (in my example german) Kommentare goes to http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy?action=supplementation ( correct)

   • maybe this has something to do, that a changed the supplementaiton_page_name or I'm using a german translation, don't know, but I tested it with the moderne and the SimpleMente theme.

2. only for logged in users
   if a user is not logged in; the link http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy?action=supplementation goes to a empty page; but the direct link http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy/Kommentare works.

   • first it seem that maybe the rights to view this site are not checked, but it doesn't matter. I even could set the acl of the comments-page to All:read, and still got this empty page. So i believe that it's only working with a logged in user!

Steps to reproduce

Create some Discussion... and see. Maybe this features is not ready yet so I'm to early with the bug report

Example

• http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy/

• http://home.heavy.ch:8080/Heavy/Kommentare

See ScreenShot with the 2x comments buttons

See ScreenShot with the empty page:

Component selection

• Action supplementation
• or just a bug in the theme coz' they're not ready for this new feature....

Details

Workaround

• not using the discussion features

  looks like the namespace is used twice in german for your example. try the default please.

  • Sorry but't I don't know what you mean. It's refer to this this link http://moinmo.in/FeatureRequests/NameSpaces ?

  • also here i see two links 1. Comments and 2. Discussion but maybe that's wanted and is not a bug.

Discussion

• also I did not found any information in the HelpOnConfiguration Section. But in the ChangeLog I found just some note. So I'm so really sorry if I picked something too new out (what is maybe not yet supported)... but I was so "happy" with this cool features; so I needed to try it out.

  see here HelpOnConfiguration/SupplementationPage please help fixing documentations on MoinMaster.

  • Ups! Sorry Sorry my fault; just searching for disscussion or comments.

  • what's about my second problem with the empty link for not registred users? it's also some misconfiguration by myself? thx for your helps!

    • you're right; it works in this wiki so this bug report could be removed or marked as not a bug.

The 'Comments' link is for toggling inline comments. Click it when you read this. Like this one!

You should rather not use 'Kommentare' for the supplementation page (or users will be confused like you were), but rather 'Diskussion' (or anything else).

BTW, the 'Comments' link in THIS wiki here is correctly translated to 'Kommentare'.
