[UW] Forum Comments System 2.3.14

Price?
Updated price list! Special Promo Offer to try this odd-on (valid only till the end of this month!) for only: $19.99 (regular price $38.99/year).



*This renewal fee is paid only once and that is when you decide to renew from 3 months or 1 year license to Lifetime license.

Does it work in tapatalk, forumapp or any other programs or applications?
No add-ons will work with TapaTalk unless they add code to their service to allow them to work.

To get a better understanding. Are the comments still posts but displayed in a different way or the completely separate from normal posts (e.g. not stored in the posts database table). Thanks!
Comments are totally different thing. There are stored in a separate table.

Does it support nested levels?
No. But it is possible to comment a comment. It works similar way as in the second level for Facebook comments. A comment will include the user's name you are commenting, plus (what Facebook doesn't have), the back button icon when clicked, will bring you to the commented comment.

You can see it in use here.

Is it possible to comment on the original post (OP)?
For the OP the reply is basically a comment, so no. Also because in this system, from a reply, you can make a new regular thread, where the reply becomes OP and all comments turns into regular replies.

Option per forum use?
By default FCS will allow comments in all forums of a website. But you can disallow posting comments for any forum you want on your website and for any user group.

Navigate to Forums -> Node Permissions (select any forum) -> Select a user group (for example Registered) and you disallow for this group in that forum to post comments.

What will happen once the add-on is uninstalled?
There are two options now:
a. Default behavior. All the comments will be removed. If you want to keep the comments, but not allow other comments to be posted, just use permission settings to disallow comments.
b. You can preserve the data by ticking the checkbox "Don't remove comments data" when the uninstall window pops up:

This way a comment will be converted into a reply with a quote of the reply under which the comment was posted.

Here is an example. This is a reply with comments before uninstalling that FCS add-on:

This is the same reply and converted comments after uninstall:

What is your role in this add-on?
I am a product architect. I am responsible for the functionality, design, user interface, and a bug free experience.
The code for this add-on is and always will be written by several years experienced XF coders. In some other add-ons, a coder releases his add-on and then uses you, the user, to do the bug checking work for him. In this add-on, after the code is written, I spend sometimes several days checking the written code searching for bugs, design flaws so you don't have to be annoyed with many trivial bugs you can find in many other add-ons.
