CommentBox for SharePoint

By Eranda -
  • Anonymous users can read comments, but must sign in to post.
  • Added new parameter “loadLiveProfile” to the CEWP argObj. This defines whether or not to load the profile image and email from the user profile, or to use the values stored in the comment. This will automatically be set to false for anonymous users. To accompany this change i have added some new fields to the configuration list (these will be automatically created when submitting the first comment), and changed the parameters “newCommentText” and “replyText” from string to array.
There are changes to these files:
  • CommentBox.js
  • spjs-webservices.js
