Support

Hi Lisette,

Thank you for your interest in the wpDiscuz – Widgets addon.

First of all, I may suggest you check out the wpDiscuz – Media Uploader addon. It has a built-in filter, it can filter the comments with attachments. Please check it out here: https://gvectors.com/product/wpdiscuz-media-uploader/ However, it should be warned that it filters the comments only for the current post.

Secondly, it’ll add the following feature in the wpDiscuz widget addon. We can show only the comments with the attachments, but the attachments won’t be embedded just comment content.

Hi, installed the 7 beta version, it’s fantastic, really! It beats all the most popular plugins like cackle, disqus etc. I have two questions:
1) Will the plugin always remain free or is the “big money” waiting for us as the cackles did once they reached so many customers?
2) I would like to make a simple slider (rotator) of the last comments on my homepage, how can I make it?
Thanks so much for your work! You are fantastic!

The wpDiscuz plugin will stay free.

2) I would like to make a simple slider (rotator) of the last comments on my homepage, how can I make it?

You should use some other plugin. I’ve found the following two plugins, please check those:

Hi Woxx,
This is a “Most Active Comment Authors” so it’s being counted based on number of comments. But there is no comment history list.

Widget:

1. Most Voted Comments – statistic based on wpDiscuz comment likes/votes. It gets all data from first day of wpDiscuz plugin installation.

2. Active Comment Threads – statistic based on number of replies to parent comment. It gets all data from first day of WordPress installation. All data are built-in WordPress data.

3. Most Commented Posts – statistic based on number of posts’ comments. It gets all data from first day of WordPress installation. All data are built-in WordPress data.

4. Active Comment Authors – statistic based on number of user comments . It gets all data from first day of WordPress installation. All data are built-in WordPress data.

A Single Site License is not for WordPress multi-sites installation with subdomains. It may work for subdirectores but not for subdomains. However please try to do a network activation. If the single activation on the main site will work for all subdomains then all is good.
