How it works?
Comment section
The Comment section allows you to leave a public comment and reply to others comments, without any login or account required
Leaving a comment
Write your name, comment, then send it, easy enough right?
- Your name is fully optional, leave it empty of you don't want to search it and it'll appear as "Anonymous"
- comment can be up to 500 characters
- A short cooldown between every comment to prevent any spam
- Once submitted, your comment will be stored in the website's Supabase Database and displayed publicly
Replies
Every public comment can reveice public replies
Replies have their own name and message, and are linked to the original comment so they appear underneath it
Edit and Delete
When you create a comment you will have the options to either remove or edit the message, by editing/removing the old message will get deleted immediately from the Database which means not even I can read it
as well, of you create a comment the website will generate a ownership token and keeps a reference to it in your browser, this token lets the same browser edit or delete the messages, it doesn't use any ID, name, or account token
To clarify things up if you clear your site's local storage, change browsers, or use another device you may lose access to those controls
if this happens and you want to remove/edit a comment you can contact me on Discord and I will help you
Moderation
Comments and replies can be moderated from the private admin dashboard
I can
- Hide or Restore and messages (Doesn't include the deleted messages)
- Permanently delete messages
- Review replies alongside their comments
Content and Link Safety
The comment section includes several features to help keep public comments safe and appropriate:
- An 18+ word filter blocks inappropriate words in four languages: English, French, Dutch, and German
- GIFs can be added to comments through the GIF feature
- URLs in comments are automatically detected and made clickable
- Links are filtered before being made clickable to help prevent unsafe or potentially harmful URLs
These filters are designed to reduce inappropriate content and help keep the comment section safer for everyone
What is stored?
the comment section stores the information needed to operate it:
Name, Message, Timestamp, The relationship between comments/replies
No email, password, phone number, or account registration is required
Because comments are public, don't include passwords, private conversations, addresses, phone numbers, financial information, or anything else you wouldn't want other visitors to see
