[Bug 1940798] [NEW] Comment notification doesn't take you to the comment

 

Public bug reported:

When comment moderation is turned on, you are not taken to the page
comment itself any more but are left at the top of the page. Since the
notification doesn't mention the content of the comment, it is difficult
for the portfolio author to know which comment is to be made public when
there are multiple comments.

The URL is something like view/view.php?id=27&showcomment=180 and
/view/view.php?id=27&artefact=163&showcomment=181 for a comment on an
artefact, but you don't jump to the comment.

To replicate:

1. PersonA creates a page and includes an image that allows comments.
2. PersonA shares the page with PersonB and makes sure that in 'Advanced options' comments are set to 'No'. The comment permissions can then be set for this person individually. Check the box for 'Allow comments' and 'Moderate'.
2. PersonA also shares the page with PersonC, allowing comments but not requiring moderation.
3. Log in as PersonB and leave a public comment on the page and on the artefact. You see "This comment is private. You have requested that this comment be made public."
4. Log in as PersonA.
5. PersonA received 2 notifications: 1) The comment itself, 2) The notification about making the comment public.

Expected result: Clicking the link in the email that is to take you to
the comment takes you to the comment.

Actual result: The link only takes you to the page but not the comment
or the comment on the artefact.

A separate bug report is filed for moderating comments.
