Edit Comment

The LikeMinds iOS Feed SDK empowers members to edit their own comments, allowing them the convenience and flexibility to modify their shared thoughts and responses within the application. This feature enables users to refine their comments, correct any mistakes, or update their opinions as needed, enhancing the overall user experience and ensuring accurate and up-to-date discussions.

note

Community Managers can also edit the comments of other members.

Steps to edit a comment

1. Create a EditCommentRequest object using EditCommentRequest.builder() class by passing all the required parameters.
2. Call editComment() function using the instance of LMFeedClient.
3. Process the response LMResponse<EditCommentResponse> as per your requirement.

// object of EditCommentRequest
let request = EditCommentRequest.builder()
            .postId(ENTER_POST_ID) // post id of the comment to be edited
            .commentId(ENTER_COMMENT_ID) // id of the comment to be edited
            .text("Updated text") // updated text of the comment
            .build()
LMFeedClient.shared.editComment(request) { response in
    // response (LMResponse<EditCommentResponse>)
    if (response.success) {
        // your function to process the response data
        processResponse(response.data)
    } else {
        // your function to process error message
        processError(response.errorMessage)
    }
}

note

Same function can be used to edit a reply as well. Just pass the id of the reply as comment id.

note

You must send the text as it is if you don't want to update it, otherwise the text will be set to empty.
