Thanks a lot for working on this @SantosGuillamot! I've tried this with my "threaded comments" settings unchanged (which previously got me 3 nested placeholder comments in the Site Editor). This is now up to 7. IMO, that's too much from a UX point-of-view (and it takes up too much space); after all, they're just placeholders to exemplify a concept 😅 (Also, the heading still states "3 comments" -- it should probably reflect the real number.)
|
Yeah, I thought about that too but I wasn't sure. I have just limited it to two nested comments. Anyway, I believe it still makes sense to keep three top-level comments to show the full experience. After all, it is how the posts will look like.
You're right, although I'm not sure how this should be handled. The first thing that comes to my mind is to read here the EDIT: I have just pushed a commit to show what I mean. It works, but we have to keep it synced with the logic changes made to the Comment Template placeholder. |
|
Thanks Mario, this is much better! There's a few minor tweaks I'd still like us to make:
TBH, I think we can just leave it at 3. This allows us to hard-wire the Comments Title placeholder back to "3", and gives us the following configurations if I'm not mistaken: Threaded (
Threaded (
Unthreaded:
I know it doesn't reflect each and every possibility, but I don't think that has to be the goal for a placeholder. Curious to hear your thoughts! |
|
Thanks for the feedback 🙂 Right now, the maximum number of comments is 5, including nested comments. I created a limit at 3 nested comments so no more levels should show. But I was still adding 2 top-level comments if the pagination setting allows it. Anyways, if it feels there are still too many I can remove the other top-level comments as you suggest to always show 3 comments at max.
Not sure about that. Imagine you have the pagination setting set to 2 comments per page and no nested comments, it would have 2 replies for example. To be honest, I don't have a strong opinion in this regard, so we can go your way. |
Yeah, I thought it was to illustrate that there might be more top-level comments. I think one such top-level comment would be enough to illustrate though, and at the end of the day, I don't even think that it's strictly needed at all.
Yeah, TBH, I'd rather save more space on screen 😅
Not sure I'm following 🤔 Doesn't the Comments Title block show the total number of comments (across all pages)? Or are you saying it would be confusing for the user if the Comments Title says "3 Comments" but we only show two because of pagination settings? 🤔 That's a fair point. I'd go as far as to say that only 2 comments per page seems like a bit of an edge case (I'd assume most people would want to show more). However, it might make sense to adapt the Comments Title block logic to reflect the number of comments the user sees in that case 👍
Thanks for bearing with me! 😊 |
|
Okay, I've just pushed a commit to match the UX you defined 🙂 I believe both the comments and the title are working with all the settings. Let me know if there's something not working as expected or missing. |

tl;dr for triage: This PR is for editor parity with the changes made to the frontend of the Comments block in #44351, to reflect the discussion setting for comments threading (i.e. render comments unthreaded when the setting is disabled). With threading enabled, we'd always show three nested placeholder comments in the Site Editor; with threading disabled, we'd only show one (but still say "3 responses" in the Comments Title block placeholder). With threading disabled:
In the editor:
With threading limited to two levels:
With threading limited to three or more levels:

Respect discussion settings in the new Comments block while working in the Site Editor. We are loading some placeholders, and they should follow the discussion settings as much as possible in order to reflect the frontend output. Co-authored-by: Bernie Reiter <[email protected]>

What?
This Pull Request aims to respect all the discussion settings in the new Comments block while working in the Site Editor. We are loading some placeholders, and they should follow the discussion settings as much as possible. We decided to show 3 comments (to not overload it with too many comments), but in some cases it wasn't working properly.
Why?
Depending on the discussion settings, the UX right now is a bit weird, so I suggest a new way of handling it to prevent this. For example, at this moment, if the "Enable threaded (nested) comments X levels deep" setting is disabled, just one comment is shown (this code).
How?
I refactored the code a bit and changed slightly the UX. With this I aimed to provide the following workflows:
For this, we have to read the
pageCommentssetting.per_pageis less than three and it is enabled.In this case, I wasn't sure if we should limit it to three levels. The max for this option is 10, and I thought it could make sense to show the user how it would look like if the levels is too high.
