Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted October 6, 20222 yr I love that you can automatically embed internal links in the forum, however I find that when linking to a comment within a topic, the resulting card is way too complex to navigate. For example when I embed the following internal link which is a comment inside a topic: https://www.logicprohelp.com/forums/topic/129868-beat-mapping/#comment-739162 That looks like this: What I get is this: Which contains no less than 8 (!) different click zones, some of them linking to the same places, and others linking to seemingly random replies in the topic (actual comment I linked to, or first answer in the thread, last answer in the thread, profile of the comment I linked to, profile of the original user...??) If I find it confusing, I'm sure 99.9% of my users can't make ANY sense of it at all - nor do I believe any of these numerous links are helpful. Instead, I'd like to get only one link, the one I posted (the actual comment I'm linking to), with only one title, so that it looks like when I embed a link to a topic: If it is possible, then I would love to know how to do it, and if it isn't, then please move this to the features suggestions? Thanks! Edited October 6, 20222 yr by Jamynee
October 6, 20222 yr If you are comfortable editing templates, this comes from the “embedItem” template in the theme. Shouldn’t be too hard to strip a few things there.

I wish I had more skill to start customizing the embedItem template but right now I wouldn't know what to do with it. Thanks anyway for pointing me in the right direction @opentype, I appreciate it.
