Upon request from the community, we created 2 modules that enable you to use external components for comments within Joomagallery, as an alternative to JG's native comment functions.

If you have JComments installed on your website, use the JoomJComments module to extend it's functionality to JoomGallery. JomComment users can use the JoomJomComments module to accomplish the same.

With either module, it is possible to allow comments on categories as well as on individual pictures in JoomGallery. The respective descriptions will tell you how.

Don't forget to deactivate the native comment functions in the configuration manager if you use these modules.

Finally, we also offer a new plugin for JComments/JoomJComments that displays the number of comments near the JoomGallery thumbnails.

 

Have fun!
