The formatting of the comments is completely configurable by parameters in /application/config. These parameters are detailed in Documentation.
You can change the colours, start and end markers, and the date format.
The purpose of Editor Comment is to add notes to pages that can only be seen in Edit Mode. Nevertheless, sometimes it can be useful to see all the comments while browsing the site.
To do that, we again have a configuration parameter jl_editor_comment.view.group. You can set this true to show comments to everyone or to a specific user group by gID.
For example, to show comments to administrators, the Administrators gID is usually 3. See the Documentation.
Everyone with edit permission can see comments in edit mode.
When the configuration parameter jl_editor_comment.view.group is set for the Administrators gID (usually 3), if the super admin cannot see the comments, this will be because they are not in the Administrators group. Go to the dashboard Members page and add the super admin user to the Administrators group and this will be solved.
Just edit the page and delete the comment block, just like you would any other block.
Uninstalling Editor Comment will remove all comment blocks.
If comments are showing to all visitors, the obvious reason is that you have set jl_editor_comment.view.group while developing the site and forgotten to change it back to false.
The other cause could be the site cache. Editor Comment is designed to not be cached precisely because you do not want it to end up showing outside of edit mode. If you have overridden the block cache settings or forced the page cache, that may cause problems. The solution is to check the cache settings and to clear the cache.
The way configuration of Editor Comment works changed with v7.9.0. This means:
What we mean here is an internal code exception in an addon or the core when you click the install button from the Add Functionality dashboard page or when you visit a page after installing an addon package.
If you experience such an issue, here are a few things you can check that may resolve the problem.
If you experience a code error on or immediately after install and need assistance, please use the Get Help link from the addon marketplace page to report the problem. On the Whoops report, click the [copy] button immediately below the error message. That will provide a stack trace you can paste into the help request and save time having to request that report later.
Perhaps you are unable to connect your site directly to the ConcreteCMS marketplace to install an addon or theme. This manual process works for all addons and themes - not just mine.
The process is exactly the same for addons and themes, except themes have an extra step of activating the theme after installing.
Sometimes step 3 above can run out of PHP execution time. This is most likely when installing an addon or theme that installs a large amount of sample content. You should not run into such an issue with any of my addons or themes.
If you do run into such issues, you can run the install manually from the shell command line.
$ concrete/bin/concrete5 c5:package-install my_package_handle
or
$ concrete/bin/concrete5 c5:package-update my_package_handle
When updating, be sure to replace the previously installed package directory rather than adding to it. If not, you could end up accumulating obsolete debris from a previous version of the package.
If you find yourself needing to install or update many addons or themes manually, consider my Package Magic addon.
Once Package Magic Starter is installed, through the marketplace or manually, all further installs can be handled from the site dashboard using Package Magic.
