1 It might be nice to be able to control [[plugins/comments]] by inserting
2 directives in individual pages:
4 * disable comments where they would normally be enabled, e.g. for a blog
5 post you know is going to cause flamey responses (`\[[!closecomments]]`
6 to reject new comments but display old ones, `\[[!nocomments]]` to
9 * direct comments to a different wiki page or an off-site URL,
10 e.g. if you have mentioned/posted something in two places
11 and you want to collect all the comments together
12 (maybe `\[[!commenton page=other/page]]`,
13 `\[[!commenton url="http://newsblog.example.com/the-next-big-thing"]]`?)
15 * (maybe) enable comments where they would not normally be enabled?
16 (I'm unsure about this one, it would need to be under some level of
17 admin control - maybe a new pagespec for pages where comments are
18 disabled by default but may be enabled by directives)
20 The use that got me thinking about this is that if the
21 [[plugins/contrib/album]] plugin evolves to be able to have the same
22 picture appear in more than one trail as kjs requested, all except the
23 "original" (defined as the page to which the picture was attached) should
24 probably either disable comments, or direct comments to the "original".
26 I don't plan to work on this myself unless I find that I need it
27 (for album or otherwise).
