DL Suite: Comments

Introduction

DL Suite: Comments is a AJAX dependent module used to serve user comments. It brings flexible functionalities along with AJAX to make things seamless and easy to integrate. In fact, this module is used throughout my web site as not only to allow user comments, but as a contact form as well.

Features

The main feature of this is of course this uses AJAX to peform and user interaction for both the frontend and the backend. No page reloads as everything is done via AJAX.

Captcha is used (thanks to DL Suite: Support) to provide an extra layer of security to prevent spamming of the database. That, in combination with admin approval, provides another layer of preventing unwanted information on your web site.

Dynamic editing allows you to simply click on a field and edit it on the backend. Both the username and comment can be edit. But even before the editing, the comment will be sanitized so that invalid or illegal characters and HTML will be stripped out.

Where to Get

You can get DL Suite: Comments either with Subversion by exporting it using the following url:

http://svn.cmsmadesimple.org/svn/dlcomments/tags/[version]

Just replace "[version]" with the version you want. You can also download it from CMS Made Simple, by clicking here.

  • How can I put the module on my website? What is the best code, which I can to write on my page, and it'll enable to me send a comments and put it automatically on my website?? Please answer. I can't do that :( my mail: iza_ciekawa20@op.pl I made a code as: {cms_module module='FormBuilder' form='DLComments'} but it isn't correct. When I can to send comments, error was appeared: 'syntaxa error'.

  • to Izabela: You use it by calling the tag {DLComments} and not the FormBuilder. Refer to the Usage Manual (though it is a little outdated, I haven't have time to update it) for more information on the usage. To have it up automatically, make sure you are using the latest version and configure the settings to be as such.

  • To Andrew: Can you please add this as a feature request to the forge at CMS Made Simple. I am really busy right now and haven't had time to work on any of these as you can see from the lacks of updates to my site. Once I have time, I'll add it.

  • I recently installed v2.0 of DL comments. On the admin panel when I bring up the DL Suite: Comments page I get this notice: Notice: Undefined index: group in cmsmadesimple/modules/DLComments/DLComments.module.php on line 500 Took a look at the code but too new to this module to sort it out. Any suggestions would be appreciated

  • To GKD: I think you mean version 1.0 right since 2.0 has not been released. Anyway, it seems like you have the error level of your PHP set to strict so you are getting this error. An easy fix would be to just lower your error level. However, this error shouldn't really be happening. If you can, can you provide some kind of backtrace?

  • hi.. I installed your DLComments module...and it blew out the graphical admin interface....now I can't even pull up the modules interface...here's the error message (browser) ERROR: The CGExtensions module could not be found. Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/www/vhosts/earthsaversclubforkids.com/httpdocs/cms/modules/DLComments/DLComments.module.php on line 38 Problem is....because the DLComment mod was downloaded and installed...I can't remove the offending mod (DLComments) through the server panel or FTP... (because the permissions are set as "www" ... any suggestions/help on solving this...? (root access will likely be next)... ;-) Thanks, Dennis

  • To dcaff: Strange thing on CGExtensions because I don't use that. Have you installed any other modules? As for the other function, are you using PHP version 5.2+?
