Comment Workflow

Comment Workflow closes comments if the node state is changed to the last state of a workflow and re-opens comments if the state is changed from the last state.

Comment Workflow will make these changes if:

• Comment Workflow is enabled for the node type
• The node's comment setting is Read only or Read/Write (Comment Workflow will not alter a Disabled comment setting)
• A workflow with three or more states (including creation) is assigned to the node type

Dependencies

1. copy the comment_workflow directory and all its contents to your modules directory
2. enable the module: admin/build/modules

Developers
The node content type form has become cluttered with all of the additional settings introduced. Comment-related node content type settings could be grouped in it's own fieldset, comment_options. This module includes a code block to create the fieldset if it does not already exist and move the Default Comment setting to this fieldset which will make the form more intuitive until a standard arises. Feel free to copy the code block into your own modules.
