Working overtime and wanting dinner, I read this as “New Edible Comments” instead of “New Editable Comments”
Glad to see I was not the only one.

Um when I first read the headline I thought it said “Edible comments.”

Could you add that feature too?

p.s. I just edited my comment to make it chocolate flavored.

Nested discussion is great for blogs like yours with heavy discussion.. but they tend to get a bit messy in layout too (gets rather hard to read).

Edit: the comment editing is very cool though. Had to try it out May add it now too!

This is great I think I should add this feature to my own blog! Thanks for the idea!

I added this afterwards, if this shows up everything is working great!

Thanks for the links J.D. The highlight author plugin works like a charm. I’ve been using the “edit comment” plugin for a few months now and my readers love it.

Thanks again.

The edit comments plugin is: WP Ajax Edit Comments

The plugin that highlights my comments is: Highlight Author Comments

Suggestion: a week or so after an “ask the reader” post, follow-up highlighting the best of the best. I just don’t have time to sift through 75+ comments!

J.D, what plugin is it that changes the background of the admin comments?

GeekMan, ideally I would have the entire comment background color change, but it’s a bit beyond my ken to hack my template that way. The plugin I found only changes the background to the text portion of the comment. I haven’t given up finding a better solution, but this one should work fine for now.

JD, the new comment system is very cool.

And editing is awesome!

Question;
Why can’t you change the entire comment background color of your personal comments to help differentiate them? Other PF websites have that ability, could you maybe ask one of them for help?

This is simply a test of the way you edit a comment.

This is a comment from J.D. It’s not exactly pretty, but it does the job.

This is awesome, I need this for my site too. You won’t know how many times I’ve posted long comments and then realize that there are several spelling or grammatical errors afterwards. This is much needed on any blog platform and should come standard.
