Hey guys. I have a quick post here to announce a bug fix and an extra feature added to SoloHive.
First the bug fix we made was that replies to comments were not being displayed, so we got that fixed. It only displays 2 levels deep to reduce on API calls but we added a "View Full Conversation" link to see the full comment thread on the configured Hive frontend.
The feature we also went ahead and added was a display comments toggle in config.js. What this does is gives the user an option to display Hive comments or not on their SoloHive install.
My partner Claude came up with a summery of the exact details.
v2.1 update — two improvements to comments on SoloHive:
Bug fix — Comments left in reply to other comments were not displaying at all. SoloHive now fetches nested replies recursively up to two levels deep, so conversations are visible directly on the post page. If a thread goes deeper than that, a "View full conversation →" link sends readers to your configured Hive frontend to see the rest.
New feature — A new showComments setting in config.js lets you turn comments on or off site-wide. Set it to false and comments are completely hidden — no API calls are made, nothing is rendered. Useful for creators who prefer a cleaner reading experience or simply don't want comments displayed on their site.
