Simple commenting system.
Download ZIP file and copy it into your system/extensions folder. Learn more about extensions.
The extension adds a comment section on blog pages.
To add comments on other pages create a [comment] shortcut. The following optional argument is available:
opening = number of days from publication after which comments are closed, or 0 (never closed), or -1 (always closed).
To put comments on every page of the site, add <?php echo $this->yellow->page->getExtraHtml("comment") ?> in system/layouts/default.html, after the line <?php echo $this->yellow->page->getContentHtml() ?>.
If you don't want comments to be shown on a page, set Comment: exclude in the page settings at the top of a page.
Content file with comments:
---
Title: Example page
---
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut
labore et dolore magna pizza. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris
nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit
esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt

[comment]
Preventing comments being shown:
---

This page does not show comments.
Layout file with comments:
<?php $this->yellow->layout("header") ?>
<div class="content">
<div class="main" role="main">
<h1><?php echo $this->yellow->page->getHtml("titleContent") ?></h1>
<?php echo $this->yellow->page->getContentHtml() ?>
<?php echo $this->yellow->page->getExtraHtml("comment") ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php $this->yellow->layout("footer") ?>
The following settings can be configured in file system/extensions/yellow-system.ini:
CommentModerator = email address of moderator. If not present, main email address of site is used
CommentDirectory = directory for comments
CommentAutoPublish = if set to 1 any comment is published immediately and the moderator can later remove it; if set to 0 no comment is published unless the moderator approves it (except particular cases, this latter behaviour is much more desirable)
CommentMaxSize = maximum size of a comment
CommentTimeout = number of days after which a comment is permanently deleted if not approved for publication; if set to 0 comments are never automatically deleted
CommentOpening = number of days from publication after which comments are closed; if set to 0 comments are never closed, if set to -1 all comments are closed regardless of publication date (can be used as a maintenance mode while manually editing the comments file); only 0 and -1 are meaningful if the metadata of the page does not contain the published setting; this value can be overridden with an optional argument when using the shortcut [comments]
CommentAuthorNotification = if set to 1, authors are notified with an email of the publication of their comments (useful also as a check on the authenticity of the email entered)
CommentSpamFilter = spam filter as regular expression
CommentIconSize = size in pixel of the icon
CommentIconGravatar = use Gravatar images instead of the internal image creator and fill in the name field, if available in the Gravatar profile
CommentIconGravatarDefault = default image for Gravatar (see the documentation for possible values)
CommentReverseOrder = show comments in reverse order (newest to oldest)
CommentConsent = show a consent checkbox (not required by European GDPR)
