[Zope-CMF] Administering CMF discussions

Tue 22 Jan 2002 02:59:22 MET

Hi Tres and the others,

I now upgraded to the final version of CMF 1.2 on my server, but I still
can't get the deleteReply thing to work. I tried the script you provided
last time, but that didn't seem to work:

   ## Script (Python) "discitem_delete"
   ## parameters=
   ## title=Delete discussion item
   parent = context.inReplyTo()
   talkback = context.portal_discussion.getDiscussionFor()
   talkback.deleteReply( context.getId() )

   context.REQUEST['RESPONSE'].redirect( parent.absolute_url()
             + '?portal_status_message=Reply+deleted' )

but it fails to get the talkback object, since it requires an argument,
and I'm not sure which argument I should specify. I tried container and
context, but both didn't work. Also the value I get for parernt is weird
since I get the discussion item itself, not the object it was a 
discussion item for.

Am I doing something wrong here? If so, what should I do differently?
Can you please give me instructions where I should could look else, since
I kind of urgently need to have this thing working...

Thanks in advance.

Pieter
