Create a page commenting block

You can insert a Page Commenting block into a template or variable block. It only requires one XML node:-

<PAGE_COMMENTING>
</PAGE_COMMENTING>

The module can be configured after creation, or automatically upon creation by using additional XML parameters. If they are not used, the configurations in the Default Value column are used. The parameters should be contained within the primary <PAGE_COMMENTING> XML tags, e.g.

<PAGE_COMMENTING>
<moderated>1 </moderated>
</PAGE_COMMENTING>
