gramener
Integrate with a commenting engine
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It's hard to add commenting on a Gramex page.
Describe the solution you'd like Integrate commento
Describe alternatives you've considered I looked at
The features we need are:
- Users can add comments
- Users can edit or delete their own comments
- Multiple comment sections allowed per page
- SSO: Integrated with Gramex auth
- Self-hosted
- Flexible UI
- Embed at the bottom of a page
- Pop-up against specific components
- Embed as a sidebar / drawer
- Customizable CSS
- OPTIONAL: Customizable display template
- OPTIONAL: Visibility level for comments can be set by developer to Public, Logged-in or role-restricted
- OPTIONAL: Voting / Likes
- OPTIONAL: Threaded comments
Of these, only Commento features SSO. It also has most other features. The two missing features are customizable display template and visibility level for comments.
Additional context
Closing #5 in favor of this issue.
I tried to setup staticman for my personal blog this july, it was overly cumbersome and I couldn't complete it. I wouldn't recommend it.
discourse seems to have SSO, it works well as a forum but not sure as a commenting platform. ex: discussion on a blog post is directed to a different page.
commento seems to have the comments option on the page. we can try this out.
@sanand0 @bkamapantula Need some time to explore these options more. Traditionally I have been using disqus, but that doesn't meet many features we need.
For now, if discourse can be configured to not redirect to a new page, we should use it.
