Re^2: Finding posts with zero replies.

talexb,
The functionality being requested hasn't been coded locally or offsite. As I noted in my reply, you get no filtering capability with either alternative - only visual cues. Now providing a complete list is only marginally better. What would be optimal would be to add a feature to Super Search that specified the number of replies:

Radio box to select either gt, lt, eq
Text box to specify the number of replies

Now, not being a devil, I doubt this is very feasible as I don't think nodes track number of children. I really like the idea and came up with something I think is better, but still not optimal.

Cheers - L~R

Hmm, well the original question asked about 'finding posts with zero replies', and it seems to me (for example, this post) that it's working as advertised. Alex / talexb / Toronto "Groklaw is the open-source mentality applied to legal research" ~ Linus Torvalds	[reply]

talexb, The finding part in the title was a lead in, the body explained the request better. S/he asked to search and in another node mentioned filtering and/or sorting. I think the intent is obvious - a list of SoPW nodes that have 0 replies. Navigating day by day and then checking each one to see the number next to it falls short of the mark.

From the original post: Is there a way to search the 'Seekers of Perl Wisdom' for posts that have not been replied to? From the title: Finding posts with zero replies. Maybe the coffee I'm drinking is clouding my brain, but I think this is the end of the discussion.
