I like it, but needs improvements

  • I am using a very minimal theme that doesn’t have a custom comment template, so I looked into using 3rd party comment systems like disqus but didn’t like how it looked and then I found this one that looks so much better than the built in comment system but yet, uses the built in comment system. Its very easy to customize so it will match the rest of your website. I also like how it looks on mobile, very streamlined.

    However, there is one simple thing that is missing and I think a lot of people have mentioned this but there is no field for commenters to leave their website address that adds a link to their site under their name in the comments. I am very surprised this function wasn’t added originally, because I think its VERY important. But I’m going to stick with it for now and hopefully the creator will update it soon with said function. Shouldn’t be too hard right?

    I would also like the ability to make the gravatars round instead of square to add a more of a unique look, I’m sure it can be done with some CSS coding, but I’m terrible at that.

    Overall, I really like it and just hope future updates make it better.

    Hi Nicholas,
    Thank you for this nice review.

    However, there is one simple thing that is missing and I think a lot of people have mentioned this but there is no field for commenters to leave their website address that adds a link to their site under their name in the comments.

    We’re currently working on this and also on social login feature. We’re planning to release wpDiscuz 2.2.0 next week. This release will come with lots of new functions and features.

    I would also like the ability to make the gravatars round instead of square to add a more of a unique look, I’m sure it can be done with some CSS coding, but I’m terrible at that.

    That’s very easy, just go to Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Background and Colors Tab and put this CSS in “Custom CSS” textarea:

    #wpcomm .avatar {
    border-radius: 50%;
}

    Thanks for a fast reply, can’t wait for the new update. I like social login feature but please keep it simple for guests to leave comments like how it is now.

    Thanks for the CSS code, that works perfect. Exactly what I wanted.
