Floating up an idea...create a space to comment on Member Pages.

[Nifty-Chicken]

It's a good discussion and you all are doing an excellent job at fleshing out all the types of things we need to consider.

For now, here's what I suggest: Anybody who wants to have a discussion about their pages should:

1) Create a topic in the appropriate section of BYC about the page.
2) Link to the topic from within your page. Maybe something like: If you have any comments or questions, please let me know by posting here: <link-to-forum-thread>

Does using this type of comment box, as suggested by Whiteconfections, pose any sort of problem for the BYC server? It seems a simple enough add-on.

Something like that should be fine if it gives you the functionality you're looking for. Since it doesn't even touch our systems it wouldn't affect anything on our servers, but we also wouldn't have the ability to do our robust backups or protect against spamming or anything else.

I had it loaded to my page and then took it off to tinker with the settings before reloading it. Now, I can't get it to work to save my life. I got it to work on my husband's BYC page, but not mine. <sigh> So much for functionality! Oh to be computer savvy...

Did you click edit the HTML, then delete from the <--STUFF--> to <--END STUFF-->? Then refill it?

I clicked the "edit HTML" and deleted the <stuff to end stuff> & refilled the stuff about 20 times, literally. I really can't figure out how to get it back, which is frustrating b/c it was SOOO easy to get it in place initially! Should've left well enough alone.

I keep getting the "HTML comment box is loading comments..." error message.

Hi! Does this work for anyone other than me?
Feedback / Comments For Dipsy

Fabulous idea! I was thinking of somewhere people could leave feedback if they didn't buy an actual auction and here it is! Yaay!
Thanks!

I DID it!!!!!

Victory is MINE! (it has only taken me two days to figure out the glitch!).
I had to add a <p> before the HTML comment code that I cut and pasted from their website. I had NO idea what I was doing, I just thought I'd try to make it look like the other lines in the preceding HTML source code.

I think you got it!
