Jcomments select field

Also another approach would be what blog template does ...
It has parameters for showing fields.

Instead of adding to a template position with drag and drop, the xml (item/category layout) of the template have parameters for choosing which fields to show ...

So you could duplicate blog template,
and a few more parameters for fields of your choose and then allow template configuration to the frontend form.

This way the frontend user will be able to select what he wants to be show.

REMEMBER to remove template parameters for obligatory fields, e.g item title, since these will always be shown.

so maybe, selecting individual parameters to show would be more preferable than selecting groups of parameters to show in the frontend (this is a new feature)

e.g. the create pathway automatically is a parameter that should not be shown in the frontend

and yes, the parameter allow/disallow comments, is an important one and we must not allow to select commenting system ... (in 95% of the cases).

Any other parameters you would think should simplified in the frontend?

maybe remove the sliders too? I am thinking of this because we are to release final version, and easy of use in frontend is important.

I come back with my request about comments system.
Just to allow author to choose Yes / No for comments.

This has been added in latest version for frontend content edit form
