This macro renders the name of the user group allowed to edit this story as set previously, e.g. contributors, subscribers etc.

If the parameter "as" is set to "editor", the output is rendered as drop-down box containing the several user groups for selection:

<% story.editableby as="editor" %>

Setting the "as" parameter to "editor" this macro renders a checkbox to enable/disable adding discussions (ie. comments) to a story:

<% story.discussions as="editor" %>

Although leaving away the "as" parameter will render a simple output of "yes" or "no" (according to whether the checkbox is checked or not), this functionality might rather be seen as a placeholder for a more reasonable use in the future.

Please note that if discussions are disabled for the whole site in the preferences ("allow comments" unchecked) this site-wide assignment will override the story's discussions setting.

Vice versa, if discussions are disabled in a story this setting will override the general "allow comments" in the site preferences.

To display a link to delete a story or a comment, resp., you can use this macro (please note that there will be shown a confirmation dialog before the story or comment is deleted, though).

The text parameter enables you to customize the default link text:

<% story.deletelink text="remove this story" %>
<% comment.deletelink text="get rid of this comment" %>

Using the image parameter you also can display an appropriate image as eye-catcher for the delete action:

<% story.deletelink image="deletebutton" %>
<% comment.deletelink image="deletebutton" %>

This macro lists all of the top-level comments once added to a story. There are no options available for this macro. The layout of each comment is determined by the corresponding comment skin.

This macro displays the form for creating a comment to a story or a reply to a comment, resp. If the user is not logged in only a link will be displayed. The default link text can be customized using the text parameter:

<% story.commentform text="login to add your comment" %>
<% comment.commentform text="login to add your reply" %>
