What is Filosofo Comments Preview?
Filosofo Comments Preview is a WordPress plugin that lets you preview comments on your blog before you submit them. It should work with just about every WordPress theme right out of the box.
Can I see it in action?
Yes—here. Try previewing and posting a comment on my test page.
Will it work on my blog?
I’ve tested it successfully on WordPress blogs of version 2.0 or newer, including the cutting-edge alpha versions of WordPress.
What are some of its features?
- Extremely simple to install: just upload and activate.
- Easy configuration in the administrative control panel.
- The preview looks as it would look if published, according to your settings (i.e. smileys, profanity edited, etc.)
- Works with “pop-up” comments.
- Flexible API allows for easy customization for those so inclined.
