Comments
Would it be possible to post pictures too ???
If they're hosted elsewhere, sure. To use the embed plugin anonymously would require further programming.
Matt, I use this one also, and I am wondering...I know your busy and all, but is it possible that you can tell me how I can add a link to the code for someone to be able to register, like this:
These comments are moderated. Your comment will not be visible until reviewed by the content owner. You may also Register for an Account at this website and join for Free.
You can extend the comment view - I don't remember what view that is offhand but if you look at what views this plugin extends you should be able to find it easily enough.
This works well for photos, videos, files, blogs, bookmarks, events, news, pages, polls.
How can I extend it for Questions?
@elgg!gal, I was able to do that by using the Moderate comments plugin (which I suspect you already use) and then modifying 'mod/moderated_comments/languages/en.php' and look for 'moderated_comments:moderated_notice' and modify the string there.
If you aren't familiar with this sort of thing you should backup the file before altering it and if you use any double quotes you have to escape them first with a backslash like so \". It worked great here and I was able to add a link to register without issue. :)
