The comments apply to news, events and blogs, is there a way to extend these to maybe attach them to a page, or content block or even a custom control?

Hi Kristian,

The PageData has a property comments, so theoretically it is possible to have comments for pages. You should have custom control that gets/sets the comments. You can get the current page from the SiteMapBase.GetActualCurrentNode and then call PageManager to extract the page node. The PageNode has a property Page which gives you the PageData object over which you can set comments. Note that the group pages do not have PageData.

Cool, the comments per page takes care of one of my needs, but I also need to be able to attach comments to a custom control any be able to manipulate when it is visible and to who. Is this possible with the comments or is this something I should wait for the forums module to be available?

Hi Kristian,

There aren't granular permissions for comments. You can choose only between registered and anonymous users and you can approve the comments before they get shown on the website. Of course it is possible to customize the comments view a bit to achieve your goal.

All the best,
