Quote Comment

Note:

Both versions of this plugin have their issues and so a version 3 is planned. I’m not sure exactly what it’ll do, but it’ll encorporate the best of both versions hopefully (editable quotes, options page, dynamic byline creation, etc.). Stay tuned.

Check out this cool plugin. It’s pretty much exactly like what the next version of my plugin was going to be like and thankfully someone else got to it first (yay, less work for me!).

As a result, I will no longer be developing this plugin and I suggest that you use that plugin instead of mine. 🙂

And yes, you can run both my plugin and that plugin at the same time. Just remove the function for this plugin from your theme and replace it with the new one. This way my dynamic replacements will keep working.

Description:

This plugin allows commenters to quote other comments in their reply. It is highly cofigurable, all via an admin area options page. The formatting of past quotes can also now be changed as the quote replacements, as of plugin version 2.0, are replaced at the time of diplay rather than the time of quoting.

Try it out below.

Installation / Configuration Instructions:

See included readme. Instructions and such have been moved to there. 😉

Past Versions:

Don’t like the way the newest version works? You can get the old version of the plugin that inserts the comment right into the reply box (rather than a placeholder) here. Note though that the v1.x series is dead and I doubt I’ll do anything more than minimal support for it. 😉

If you enjoy this plugin, please consider sending a few bucks my way. I’ve spent a lotta time on this plugin and all donated money will be put towards paying off my college loans and such. 🙂

  2. Just double checking that there’s no problem with it not working if you’re not logged in or something and testing IE while I’m at it.

  3. Well crap. I just realized that I bet the script that makes sure that commenters don’t use non-allowed tags is stripping out the because technically it’s an HTML tag. 😐

    Going back to the previous version for here on my site and off to fix that issue. :/

  8. [Comment ID #449 Will Be Quoted Here]

    Testing RC2, but disabling nested quotes in options doesn’t seem to be working for me.

  9. [Comment ID #451 Will Be Quoted Here]

    Toggling it a few times seems to have fixed it. No idea what happened. Maybe it was a fluke.

  14. This plugin should either only qoute the contents of the post qouted (minus any qoutes in the post), or have a limit on how deep the qouting can go. I am not a developer so I don’t know if this is possible.

  15. Already an option. You can toggle either doing what it’s doing here on my site (which is how I like it) or you can make it only go 1 deep, i.e. if someone quotes a comment and then you quote them, it won’t show the comment they quoted.

    And this reminds me, I should release this plugin as I haven’t heard or encountered any problems with the latest build.

  20. I don’t get it to work. My Theme looks like this:
    click here!
    ( in this code, i already tried it, but so, there is nothing to see in comment section)
    I want it to be displayed like here on this page, on each comment a little link with “quote it” …
    please help, thank you very much for this great plugin 😉

  22. when do you think, it’s coming? 🙂 but plz look at my code, perhaps you find my fault … i thought, i have done all the right way :/

  23. Hard to tell without a link to your blog, but as it should say below, these comments are not the place for plugin support. I have forums for a reason.

    Anyway, within the week hopefully, please just be patient.

  29. Hrm…this was looking like what I wanted for WP 2.0 until I saw that users can’t edit quoted comments. I know I like to quote specific parts of long comments and I imagine there are people like me out there. Sure would like to see that as an option. Now that would just rock! 🙂

  30. Use version 1.11. It’ll do what you want – it does direct quoting and just inserts the contents of the comment to be quoted into the reply box.

    The disadvantage of that is that you can’t change the byline later on, editing comments is not always a good thing, and some people were having issues with it working right (dunno why).

  41. Well, I’m not actually done fixing it. I want it to display an error message, but I can’t get it quite working how I want it to, so I’ve put it off for a few days and worked on other stuff instead.

    As for the Recent Comments plugin, it sounds like that plugin just pulls the comments directly from the database and then displays them without applying the needed filters.

    My plugin works by creating a WordPress filter for the comment contents. When the comments get displayed, WordPress gives the comment content to my plugin and my plugin returns some modified content.

    So, it’s an issue with their plugin, not mine. Contact the author of it and make sure that they are applying the comment filter to their output.

  42. hmmm… I know how your plugin works now, and have you try another way? it’s just quoting in a forum, such as IPB. the original texts are quoted directly. I think this way is better than creating filters for the comment contents, but i don’t know if it could realize.

  43. Yeah, that’s how version 1 worked. You can download it above.

    However, combining the two is a really good idea. Something like this:

    Some text here that will be displayed. Obviously can be editable. The ID is for creating the byline and a link back to the old comment.

  44. yes, I think both are good, but I prefer the older one, and one of my friend thought that the older way is better, and I think you can just combine them in your way, or just add a switch to chang methods in opition page 😀
