Comment Settings

There are two types of comment structure in uCoz:

Simple comment structure – where users' comments go one by one as the messages are added.

Tree-like comment structure – where users can answer the comments of other users. In this case new comments are situated under the answered comment. The tree-like structure is enabled by default, to disable it and enable the simple structure, go to Common Settings and remove the checkmark for Use tree-like comments structure.

Each module has separate comment settings: Control Panel -> any module -> Module settings -> Enable "Comments" feature for the current module. If this checkbox is enabled, the possibility to comment entries of this module appears.

It is also possible to set the number of comments per page and the way the new comments are displayed (Top or Bottom part of the page).

Appearance of comments can be changed in Control Panel -> Design-> Design management (templates) -> Comments -> templates: Appearance of comments and Form for adding comments

Codes to display comments

The codes to display comments work in the Appearance of entries and Page with entry full text and its comments templates.

Appearance of entries codes are:

Users, setting permissions for comments

Besides enabling or disabling comments for modules, it is also possible to set permissions for groups to comment.

It can be done in Control Panel -> Users -> User groups -> Set permissions for all groups -> Comments.

Note: When commenting, the system group "Users" should type in the security code (captcha). This option can be disabled for sites with local authorization, though. See more about it here: http://forum.ucoz.com/forum/7-13797-79382-16-1309955294

Limitations: 4000 comments may be added to each entry.

Comments can be rated!

Note:

Comments can be added in modules only (except for Guestbook, FAQ and Tests).

Comments will not work on the pages, created via Page Editor!
