New Comment System May be Comming
Nov 11th, 2007 by Brian A. Thomas
I saw All Climbing added a new comment system, I may add that system myself if it works with the iG:Syntax Hiliter plugin that I use. It looks like this will allow for a nicer looking comment section, with a greater range of power for not only myself as the blog, but for you as the user. I may add it, then test it out.
EDIT: I installed the Intense Debate system
The code in the test comment below should look like this, but it seems not to be working with the code highlighter in comments.
C#:
-
public static bool PM
-
{
-
get
-
{
-
return pm;
-
}
-
set
-
{
-
pm = value;
-
}
-
}
Notice in the comments, not only does it show the chsarp brackets and strips the spacing out as well.
This is just a test of the new comment system to see how it handles code with the iG:Syntax Hiliter plugin:
Hi Brian, thanks for writing about us. If you have any feedback for us, we would welcome anything you could offer. josh at intensedebate dot com
Email sent, though basically it amounts to letting the [something] context [/something] pass properly so WordPress sees them, or implement your own coding syntax highligher akin to iG:Syntax Hiliter. The rest I posted on the General Comments section of the ID Forum, and repeated in the email. The last one was to add a Recent Comments plugin, or to allow it to pass through to WordPress's normal recent comments list.
Brian, thanks for the mention in your post. I'm on the fence still with Intense Debate. Trackbacks are critical and until they can incorporate them, I can't fully start to use the system everywhere. Once that gets added though, I'll be implementing it across a couple blogs.
