Simple Comment Editing – plug does not work in P2 theme

  • I have the P2 theme (with a few straight forward mods in a P2 Child theme) Installed the plugin “Simple Comment Editing” v 1.9.1. It simply does not work. Should it? Has anyone with the P2 theme got this plugin working? Anyone else hit this problem? Is there a way to get this working? I’d value some help and feedback.

    P2’s special front-end posting means that some plugins relating to posting or commenting are not compatible with it.

    Thank you. What a bummer! Really wanted this facility. It’s a language blog and spelling mistakes are inevitably needing to be corrected.
    I’ll keep this open for a couple of weeks in the hope that someone might have some positive help.

    You could always try posting in the plugin’s forum to ask if they have any suggestions, but since P2 replaces WordPress’s default commenting/posting functionality with its own Ajax front-end posting system, they will likely tell you the same thing. Do let us know if they have any suggestions, though. ??

    Hi davedee,

    I allowed my members to moderate comments along with edit others posts, which works on the front end. Of course you do have to trust them to only manage the stuff they are allowed. I only have a few members right now so it is easy to monitor, however, as I get more this may change.

    Perhaps a limited rich editor for comments with spellcheck option is another way to go. I don’t usually edit my posts as I use another editor before posting anything so all my errors are pre-handled.

    Let me know if you already found a solution. I may have need of it too!

    Thanks, Summer
