Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records AJAX Comments version 2.08 as active, updated 18y ago and tested up to WordPress 2.3.

Overview

About this plugin

More than that, it checks if all fields filled correctly, and also makes sure to avoid comment duplication, and has flood protection capabilities as well.

Probably one of the best ways you could spice up your WordPress Blog with AJAX; readers love it! Must see for yourself.

This plugin works well in all major Web browsers, and uses discrete AJAX.

That means if JavaScript disabled, it’s using the original comment posting method.

Ajax Comments known to work well, with Authimage plugin, but I rather suggest Akismet, as it is free for personal use.

Features:

us Fade In/Out Effects make readers happy * works with AuthImage captcha word verification plug-in to prevent comment spam * still works traditionally if browsers don't support JavaScript (or have it disabled) * uses existing theme code to match styled comment threads when producing new comments * 25-second server timeout ensures readers aren't left hanging * works in current versions of Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera, Netscape, and Safari.

Recommendations:

* perfectly compliments any well-styled comment form design-don't design without it * best when moderation is off (seems more real-time) and AuthImage is installed (self-moderation is the best moderation)

Known bug

0 stops working properly if you

1) installed.

And we got another report, that it also stops, when you have SpamKarma activated.

We are working on a solution.

AuthImage Integration

  • Open ajax-comments.php and uncomment lines: 92, 152, 153.

-

php from your /themes directory and use the following code (mostly just the ids) for AuthImage to appear in your comments form:

>

">can't read it? </p> <p><input name="code" id="code" type="text" class="text" tabindex="5" /></p>
