CommentLuv

Things may seem a little quiet here lately but it’s only because I’m behind the scenes doing some major updates because, you see, I’ve been listening to what people have been asking for and I have stayed in my man-cave tapping on my keys every day for the past week, there’s probably another week of [...]

I had the api working on my local install  and while I was uploading it I realized I had to make a few changes, hours later I think I have it ready for some limited live testing so I’ve enabled the new api to be used on comluv blogs, please leave a comment below to [...]

Wot, no support?
I haven’t been able to do much support ticket replies this week because I got stuck in the matrix. Coders will know the situation, where you sit down to try something in your favourite IDE and a whole day passes and by the time you feel it’s time for bed, it’s way [...]

Database queries
With the introduction of the new API, not to mention the thousands of uses it gets per day, there is a pretty large load on the server during peak times of the (US) day. Me and Ron are tracking down queries used in the API and will see if they can be refined or [...]

Making Money
Every site likes to make money, for some it’s a bonus and for others it’s their whole purpose of blogging. For ComLuv blogs, I want to make the whole daunting process of monetizing your blog into a simple and reliable process.
This is why I have made, and will make more, widgets and plugins that [...]

I’ve done some minor updates to the site today (at the cost of my normal Sunday routine) which make the whole place a little bit more “commentluv” and changed the way the tag results page displays.
The login page now has the logo and the help page in the dashboard has a link to the support [...]

In a bid to combat spam and trackback spam, I have installed a new plugin available to all blogs on The ComLuv Network. It’s called Auto-close and allows every blog owner to set the maximum period a post or page can receive comments.
I used to get an awful lot of spam comments on posts that [...]

It’s been a busy week keeping things in check with the site and plugin but, it looks like it’s going ok so far!
Bug Fixes
There have been a few minor issues that were reported like the info box not showing for everyone, that’s been sorted out. Joomla site owners were seeing the “no blog posts found” [...]

I’ve added some explanitory text to the signup page so new users don’t get confused and think they need a blog here just to have an account and I’ve added the CommentLuv Blogger download page with easy 1 click install method.
Next update to Commentluv will have Italian and Chinese language support and maybe a “traditional” [...]

I’ve stayed up a little late tonight again because some people were experiencing issues with the style of the links. Turns out it was because they had php4 on their hosting and that didn’t support the commands I was using to find the added link.
Thanks to some good feedback and dedication by CommentLuv users, I [...]
