* COMMENTING WIDGET

For over 10 years, Vuukle’s commenting plugin has been the go-to for publishers looking to significantly increase user engagement, ad revenue, and CPM without slowing down page load speed.

Reviews

Against GDPR

mikatamni March 4, 2022

This plugin takes admin’s information (email) as soon as it is activated on the site, without any user’s consent. It immediately sends you an email and even the Unsubscribe button in it doesn’t seem to work. GDPR, anyone? It’s 2022.

Where is my custom emoji? it’s gone

It’s okay

yodelvixen June 26, 2021 4 replies

It’s an okay widget, I just wish it was more versatile. I find it limiting. I wish they had the date comments were made instead of saying… 8 days ago. Sometimes it’s hard to sign into.

Frustrated reviewer

ajeetekbote May 15, 2020 1 reply

I have been having difficulty in logging in, everytime it says you have been logged in and if this window doesn’t close please close it and there starts the struggle and i leave it frustrated. Why doesn’t it remember me on that site? Why am I asked everytime to login? Discuss is better it remembers me.

Great but…

vianodee July 4, 2019 1 reply

I think Vuukle is really nice but I think it’d be better if there was a section were visitors can put in their website URLs. Also I think it’d be nice if they could click on “talk of the town” posts and be directed to the posts in question instead of meeting an “error” page. But in all, it’s a nice plugin.
