Title: Guests comments plugin
Post by: datahell on June 29, 2020, 21:51:54
I just released a new free plugin for Elxis CMS named Guests Comments (https://www.elxis.net/edc/public-opinion/158.html) which supports nested comments by both logged-in users and guests. You can download the new plugin from EDC.

Guests comments plugin (https://www.elxis.net/edc/public-opinion/158.html) allows commenting to content articles by site guests. But even if you don't want guests to post comments you can switch off this option and use the plugin only for the logged-in users. The plugin supports nested comments and it works with AJAX requests, so you don't have to refresh the page after posting a comment. Unpublished comments by site guests stay unpublished until a site administrator publishes them. When someone replies to a comment you have made you get a notification email. The plugin has also an anti-flood security feature which allows you to deny repeated comments by a site guest within a configured time frame. The plugin by default asks for name and email but also supports other form elements which you can enable and set as required (phone, website, country, city).

An other cool feature is the automatic integration of the plugin to specified categories without having to integrate the plugin via the editor. This is the recommended method to integrate Guests comments (https://www.elxis.net/edc/public-opinion/158.html) plugin. In plugin parameters just type the categories IDs (comma separated) for which you want to enable the plugin and comments will be enabled to all articles of these categories. Important: The automatic integration feature requires Elxis 5.1 rev2348 or newer.

Special thanks to Chong-Bing Liu for supporting the development of this plugin.
