I do like commentluv plugin. Unfortunately in my case it is not very helpful as I comment via mobile (it doesn’t link to my post). I thought of bringing this point to commentluv developers. I hope they will come up with some solution

FYI commentluv runs on top of a comment system called Echo.

Echo is the thing you’re having problems with, commentluv works just fine

I installed Comment Luv on my blog and Echo. My readers hate this system. I’m not fond of it either. First of all, Comment Luv doesn’t appear on my reader’s comments – at all. Secondly it makes my blog load way too slowly – especially when you click the comments link. By the time it loads, most readers are gone.

Then my readers have to go through sometimes 2 log ins just to leave a comment on my blog – which they’ve told me that they HATE. Also, their comments have been “eaten.” I constantly have 2 different areas that report a different number for the amount of comments left on a particular post. Some reader comments have been “eaten” somehow. And I do not like that I can’t delete an individual’s comment if it is inappropriate (such as spam.)

I stopped getting email notifications of new comments on my blog when they appear (which is an important time management tool for me.)

I’m so disappointed. I expected Comment Luv for Blogger to work the same way as it does on Wordpress blogs. I signed up and tried to install CommentLuv to encourage readers to leave more comments on my blog. Instead, they and I are getting headaches, and it’s encouraging them NOT to comment on my blog. I am so disappointed.

I appreciate where you’re coming from John, I know it seems a hassle to put these 3rd party systems in but once they’re in, they’re done with and you can carry on as normal. If you contact jskit about your troubles using their support site, you’ll see that they go to great lengths to help their users. I understand the position they’re in though, they have hundreds of thousands of members and it must be a full time job to just read the emails let alone answer them!

Re wysiwyg: the iframe that is used for wysiwyg is sourced from outside the site which makes it impossible to manipulate with javascript. it’s a security thing and will not be fixed by anyone who wants to protect from cross domain scripting vulnerabilites.

each system takes a little getting used to, imagine how you felt when you first saw your WP dashboard, I bet it was a little daunting and strange at first but, now that you’re a crazy amount of comments popular blogger, you feel right at home in your dashboard. it’s the same with jskit or other comment systems, give it a few weeks and you’ll wonder what you were worried about! (I hope

take a look at this jskit/blogger/commentluv tutorial, it goes over some good stuff on how to make sure your site gets the luv

thanks for all you do in regards to talking about commentluv, I read your posts and your comments often while I’m at work. A lot of good feedback there, wish I had time to comment more but every time I click reply, the phone rings for another delivery and the screen gets replaced with the customers details.

contact me any time

SBA: the issue with wysiwyg is that it places an iframe on the page to take care of the extra fancy bits and it is nigh on impossible to access the DOM of an iframe which has an external source. It’s not because I don’t want to , it’s because I cannae change the laws of ~~physics~~ html !

I understand what you say about wysiwyg comments but in my travels, I have seen very very few commenters take advantage of it.

Sandy: you can easily remove jskit by removing the widget from your dashboard and then saving changes. once it’s gone, it shouldn’t stay on your blog because the code simply isn’t there. Try pressing ctrl+F5 on your keyboard to do a hard refresh of the page.
