RSJoomla! Blog - tutorials, tips & updates about commenting system

The new revision of RSComments (rev. 11) brings the long awaited Joomla! 3.0 compatibility, as well as some adjustments to the component's look and feel and extended import functionality.

The users interaction in the web 2.0 era represents a key factor for your website success.
The social element becomes even more important when you own an event website and you need to allow users to interact with each other through comments.

Therefore, having a comment system for your Joomla! event based website is not something that should be overlooked.

An easy way to achieve this is to use RSEvents!, as a Joomla! event extension together with RSComments!, as a Joomla! comment extension.

How to use RSEvents! with RSComments! ?

We will show you below how to configure RSEvents! in order to use RSComments! as a comment system for events.

Step 1:

In the Joomla! administrator panel, head to Components >> RSEvents! >> Settings >> Events and select RSComments! as the default Joomla! comment extension.

RSComments! revision 7 comes with fresh updates: improved functionality and EasyBlog integration.

1. Option to show the comment form on blocked articles

RSComments! is pretty flexible: you can add comments to any Joomla! or 3rd party page or block certain articles.
In the new revision, if a particular article is part of the disabled Joomla! sections and categories, you'll still be able to use the default RSComments! syntax, which allows you to publish comments on any Joomla! page:
{rscomments on}
