Re: Marking comments as read

Can I understand that you are only showing one comment at a time, even
together with a post?

In case that is correct, then one solution is to specific read all the
ViewedComment records for the post and the user, and ask in the view,
is the current comment in the ViewedComment array of records.
If it is, then show current comment in one colour or whatever you
want.

Another is to include the ViewedComment records in the Comment set
using a hasMany relationship with condition that the user_id equals
the current user. Then act upon it in the view.

Hope this gives you some ideas, enjoy,
John
