Hi, I'll write this one last time: Could you please inspect and compare the HTML in the web browser's developer tools? See for example https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Tools/Page_Inspector/How_to/Open_the_Inspector for Firefox.

Hi
Can I ask you to check this on the following site:

https://fa.wikihowzeh.ir/wiki/%D8%A8%D8%AD%D8%AB:%D8%B5%D9%81%D8%AD%D9%87%D9%94_%D8%A7%D8%B5%D9%84%DB%8C

Thank you in advance

I cannot, as displaying a "reply" link requires a login. It would be really helpful if you could inspect (!) the HTML source code (!) and compare between the two (!). See https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Tools/Page_Inspector/How_to/Open_the_Inspector or so

Hi @Mahdi_Alavi_sokot, I had a look at your wiki.

It looks like you have customized the default date format used by the wiki (possibly using $wgDefaultUserOptions['date'] = 'persian';, although I can't check that). DiscussionTools doesn't currently support that :(

I'm sorry, but DiscussionTools doesn't currently support all of the date formats supported by MediaWiki. We've built the tool with Wikimedia wikis in mind, and we only added support for the date formats that they required (and the Persian Wikipedia uses the default date format).

Please try removing the override to use the default date format for the Persian language (or change it to use any format using the Gregorian calendar, where the current year is shown as 2021 or ۲۰۲۱, instead of the other available calendars).

(Also, note that only comments where the timestamp uses the currently configured date format and language can be recognized and have a [reply] button, so you'll have to post some new comments to test after changing those settings.)

Hi @matmarex

Hi @Aklapper

I made the corrections you said

The problem was completely solved

Thank you very much for following up

Thanks for posting

Similar bug report: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Topic:Xz2g921ssplvcxs5

If anyone wanted to add support for one of the unsupported MediaWiki date formats, you'd have to:

(1) Identify the formatting codes used by the date format, for example:

• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/0369df7bf71f1d2c012a44e130da4c4d7d0eede3/languages/messages/MessagesFa.php#418 xij xiF xiY
• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/0369df7bf71f1d2c012a44e130da4c4d7d0eede3/languages/messages/MessagesHe.php#347 xh xjj xjx xjY

Their meaning is documented here: https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/0369df7bf71f1d2c012a44e130da4c4d7d0eede3/includes/language/Language.php#814

(2) Add support for parsing them to DiscussionTools:

• Extend the regexp generator so that it can find the timestamps on the page:
  • https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/DiscussionTools/+/6da23e4d0088d5ac119a7a4c52d90810d9b28985/includes/CommentParser.php#208
• Extend the date parser, so that it can parse the date and time out of the timestamp: (and represent it in the Gregorian calendar)
  • https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/DiscussionTools/+/6da23e4d0088d5ac119a7a4c52d90810d9b28985/includes/CommentParser.php#350
  • https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/extensions/DiscussionTools/+/6da23e4d0088d5ac119a7a4c52d90810d9b28985/includes/CommentParser.php#405

Make sure that you use the same date calculations (except in the opposite direction) as MediaWiki uses to display these formats, e.g.:

• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/0369df7bf71f1d2c012a44e130da4c4d7d0eede3/includes/language/Language.php#1523
• https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/g/mediawiki/core/+/0369df7bf71f1d2c012a44e130da4c4d7d0eede3/includes/language/Language.php#1414
