I would love to have a simple comment embed plugin, like Hyvor.
Features needed:
- Moderation
- Rating options (5 Stars and Emoji Reactions)
- Social Login (Google, FB, Apple)
- Rich Schema support

@Philip_Matthew happy to see you on the forum, welcome!
Thank you so much for describing your idea and the features you’d love to see in such a widget, I really hope we’ll get around to the Comments widget one day ![]()
i agree
Yes please buil widget for comment please
You should also add to the comment widget the option to react by emoji, like or dislike, star, and reply to the comment. It would help share the experience between buyers and consumers as they could know if the item is good or not. It would also help making a “chat” for a google site as people could respond to each other or chat to each other. It would also be good to be able to @someone and add a picture to show what it looked like when it arrived. It would be nice to have moderation to the comment plugin also so it could show a Moderator, Admin, and Owner on the side of the name/email of the comment.
Hi there and welcome aboard @GalacticNetwork ![]()
Thank you so much for sharing your vision on the Comments app!
I agree that having all those features in the app would be fantastic. We’ll try our best to consider them once we’ll start working on the widget.
We promise to keep you informed about any progress here ![]()
Alr thank you so much
Hi Everyone! I also have been waiting for a Blog/Comments widget, and have been using Disqus. I noticed the first post for this widget was from 2021, so I can see the frustration the members go through. We’ve figured out a way to build a form and have the information go directly to a members email account, and we’ve figured out a way to grab information from another site and bring it to our email address. So though I have absolutely no coding experience, it seems like we need to figure out a way to either keep the information submitted within the widget on the site, or have to automatically sent back to Elfsight and then sent back to the widget, no different then when we click publish and it automatically updates the widget on my site.
Since this is apparently an important widget for the members, maybe it would be helpful if you explained why it’s been difficult to create this type of widget and what would need to happen to complete the program, especially since there are other companies who already have a Comments widget.
Just a thought.
Hi there @Trainerw ![]()
A huge thank you for your interest and help!
You are absolutely right! Some of the available apps offer more advanced features compared to what’s expected of the Comments widget.
However, you see, since we get a lot of requests, we have to be picky and choose the most popular requests first.
We do realize the high demand for this app, but, currently, we have even more popular requests such as Appointment Booking and Blog apps, that’s why the Comments widget is not released yet. I am really sorry!
This year, we have plans to actively develop new widgets, and we’ll prioritize them based on the number of votes they receive. Once we receive any news from our dev team, we’ll definitely share all details in this thread.
Once again, thanks a bunch for pointing us in this direction, it’s much appreciated ![]()
You could have to do a simple HTML and php script that when they click the post or send button it posts it and sends it to the php to save it.
Thanks a lot for the idea, @GalacticNetwork! We’ll make sure to pass it over to the devs ![]()
we need this for reviews that can be posted from the website
It seems like the “Comments” widget is just a wish, not a reality.
@user11397 @Phil1 thank you for your comments, guys!
Absolutely understand you, but I’m afraid I don’t have any updates on this widget at the moment ![]()
There are some serious impediments hindering the entire widget development, and right now we, unfortunately, cannot focus on them due to other important tasks. We discuss this topic periodically within our team. However, as frustrating as it may be, we’re unable to provide a satisfactory solution right now ![]()
We do see your interest in this widget, and we’re really grateful for all the comments and ideas you’re leaving here. But I fear we’re currently running short of resources and have to delay this widget development for some time ![]()
A widget at which people can comment with their name on a site
Hi there @Nadiashahid ![]()
Glad to say that we already have such a request in the Wishlist! I’ve moved your comment to the related discussion, where we’ll post all the updates ![]()
Thanks a lot for your input, that’s much appreciated!
The comment widget should be just like the project huddle and example from surefeedback service.
A huge thank you for providing your vision, that’s much appreciated!
We’ll try to consider your suggestions when working on the app. We’ll keep you posted on any progress here ![]()
@Max
Y’all should take example from your rivals (POWR or CommonNinja). Like take all of these concepts and like combine them to make something better than their comments combined. You guys would be a hit because people would be talking “oh POWR stinks you should use Elfsight!”. - EugeneSaysHi (Galactic Networking Employee)
Hey @GalacticNetwork thanks for the suggestion! ![]()
You might be right, who knows! I’ve shared your comment with the devs just in case ![]()
