# Grav Comments Plugin
2015-09-13 18:32:44 +00:00
The **Comments Plugin** for [Grav](http://github.com/getgrav/grav) adds the ability to add comments to pages, and moderate them.
# Installation
The Comments plugin is easy to install with GPM.

```
Or clone from GitHub and put in the `user/plugins/comments` folder.

# Usage

Add `{% include 'partials/comments.html.twig' with {'page': page} %}` to the template file where you want to add comments.
For example, in Antimatter, in `templates/item.html.twig`:
```twig
{% embed 'partials/base.html.twig' %}
{% block content %}
{% if config.plugins.breadcrumbs.enabled %}
{% include 'partials/breadcrumbs.html.twig' %}
{% endif %}
<div class="blog-content-item grid pure-g-r">
<div id="item" class="block pure-u-2-3">
{% include 'partials/blog_item.html.twig' with {'blog':page.parent, 'truncate':false} %}
</div>
<div id="sidebar" class="block size-1-3 pure-u-1-3">
{% include 'partials/sidebar.html.twig' with {'blog':page.parent} %}
</div>
</div>
{% include 'partials/comments.html.twig' with {'page': page} %}
{% endblock %}
{% endembed %}
```
The comment form will appear on the blog post items matching the enabled routes.
To set the enabled routes, create a `user/config/plugins/comments.yaml` file, copy in it the contents of `user/plugins/comments/comments.yaml` and edit the `enable_on_routes` and `disable_on_routes` options according to your needs.

# Enabling Recaptcha

The plugin comes with Recaptcha integration. To make it work, create a `user/config/plugins/comments.yaml` file, copy in it the contents of `user/plugins/comments/comments.yaml` and uncomment the captcha form field and the captcha validation process.
Make sure you add your own Recaptcha `site` and `secret` keys too.

# Where are the comments stored?
2016-06-03 08:26:16 +00:00
In the `user/data/comments` folder. They're organized by page route, so every page with a comment has a corresponding file. This enables a quick load of all the page comments.

# Visualize comments
When the plugin is installed and enabled, the `Comments` menu will appear in the Admin Plugin. From there you can see all the comments made in the last 7 days.
Further improvements to the comments visualization will be added in the next releases.
# Email notifications
The plugin interacts with the Email plugin to send emails upon receiving a comment. Configure the Email plugin correctly, setting its "Email from" and "Email to" email addresses.
