Forum | Appery.io

Hi

I am wanting to build a forum where a user when logged in can post their questions or even write suggestions to a common forum page. In addition, I want other users or admin to be able to answer their questions.

Could you help me out with this please?

Hi Sunita,

Unfortunately we do not have ready solution. You can search online for appropriate approach.
You can read our getting-started document and tutorials, they should be useful:

http://devcenter.appery.io/tutorials/

I have gone through them but of not much use.
I have the basic form to let users put in their messages on the forum, but i want other users to be able to answer/comment on their posts.

Any suggestions please?

Sunita,

Hi Alena,

Thank you for the link. However, this link would only allow me to let users add to the forum.

I want other users to be able to comment on the posts made by users, creating a thread of conversation.

Can you help me out please?

Hello Sunita,

Unfortunately custom app logic is outside the scope of our support, but maybe some of the users will have some ideas for you.

Hi is there anyone who can guide me with this? It is really important for me.

I tried playing around with the DB but of no use.

Any help will be really appreciated!

Hi Maryna!

So i have a chat forum that looks like this :

And my collection in the database for this forum looks like this:

From the first image, a user should be able to type in a reply, and when the user clicks on 'Reply' button, their reply should be listed below the forum message.

I am not sure how to store and list replies for a specific forum message, so that they are displayed together whenever a user visits this page?

Hello Sunita,

Each topic in your DB should be represented as entity in the collection, thus it will have id, which you could use to group messages of this topic.
So whenever user adds new message to the topic, you need to create the message in the DB with the pointer at this topic id.
So next time when user will open topic you could search for messages by topic id
