Hi,
I’ve installed the comments component. It looks great. One feature is missing (or I can’t find it) –

• How to restrict the feature for a certain category.
• How to restrict commenting for registered users only.

Can these 2 be done?
Thanks,
Yonatan

Hi Yonatan,

You will get all the details about JA Comments at http://wiki.joomlart.com/wiki/JA_Comment/Overview

1. To restrict commenting feature for some categories you need to use the content plugin for JA Comments. The details of the seeting are available at http://wiki.joomlart.com/wiki/JA_Comment/Administration#Content_Plugin_Administration
2. The settings to restrict commenting for Registered users is in the Permissions tab in JA Comment settings, as shown in http://wiki.joomlart.com/wiki/JA_Comment/Administration#Permissions_Settings

Thanks, I got it.
Can I setup a title for the comments section?
Let’s say I want to add: “ask a question” in order to prompt my users to ask questions regarding an article.

Hi,

You can change the text ‘..Comment..’ to ‘Ask a question’ by changing the text from language file. The functionality in this case will remain as it is now but possibly your site users will get a better idea about what they can do with the commenting system on the site.
