Hi Newspaper developers & community,
We purchased the Newspaper7 theme recently (with 1 year support) and we are very happy with it indeed. It was our first experience of doing editing work with Visual Composer as before we only used the visual editor with more basic themes.
Our question:
The new site we are building is a news and blog site, where we would also want to show a selection of recent comments (at the frontpage) as well as have the possibility to have a discussion board where people can post short text messages as “remarks, questions” or “feedback” without these being tied to any post.
Is there a suitable component or plugin we can use with Visual composer an embed into the Newspaper theme? (note that we are using the basic wordpress comment system, and not facebook, diqus etc.) Comments should be postable by ANYONE (no loginn required) but feedback/remarks in the discussion board, should require login.
Any suggestions?
cheers,
Erwin
Hello Erwin,
We are glad too see you are happy with our product.
If you want to show a list of the most recent comments, wordpress together with visual composer offer this possibility on any page. Simply add this element to your page: https://www.screencast.com/t/NvM0enTK9Y
As for the discussion board, the easiest way to do it is the bbpress forum: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/ or the buddypress plugin: https://buddypress.org/
Check them both out as they are both fully compatible with our theme and pick the one that provides your needed features.
Thank you!
Bogdan B
