Originator Comments | Community

In the K2DefaultTaskPageSimple.aspx page, there is a field to show the user the Originator's Comments and then another field for you to enter your own. The comments you enter end up in the SPComments XMLField and then show up in the View Comments History link. This works very nicely, except the Originator's Comments are always blank.

How do you populate the Originator's comments? Should you add a Comments node to the SPComments/FormComments/ XML? Is there a special EventName that this form looks for?

OK. Figured this one out myself. The Originator Comments come into play when you have a SharePoint workflow that you configure to start manually. The screen that the user gets when they start the workflow manually allows them to enter comments that then become the "Originator Comments." Oddly though, these don't end up in the SPComments XML.
