Join in on our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/bologer/anycomment.io) = Comment form does not load or gives an error? = AnyComment uses WordPress' REST API. Please confirm two things: 1. You WordPress is 4.7 or higher (this is when WordPress introduced REST API) 2. Going to `http://yourdomain.com/wp-json/` SHOULD NOT redirected to `http://yourdomain.com` or it give 404 Not Found page For the first step - just upgrade WordPress, it is good idea anyways. For the second, check for plugins which make "optimization" of website. Most of them disable REST API. For example, [Clearfy](https://wordpress.org/plugins/clearfy/) has option "Disable Rest API". Having this option "On" will fail to load comments in AnyComment. Not yet working? Use one the links mentioned in the description above to contact us, we will be happy to help you! = Why Do Socials Ask For Privacy Policy link? = It is now one of the requirements to have Privacy Policy link on your website due to GDRP regulation. AnyComment is GDRP compliant. You can read more about General Data Protection Regulation on [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Data_Protection_Regulation). Read guide on how to create "Privacy Policy" page: - [English version](https://anycomment.io/how-to-create-privacy-policy-page-in-wordpress/) - [Russian version](https://anycomment.io/ru/kak-sozdat-stranitsu-politiki-konfidentsialnosti-v-wordpress/) = Why Does Facebook Require HTTPs? = From some recent time, Facebook now required website to have HTTPs connection in order to work with their API and we cannot do anything about it. Most of the hosting providers support single button-like installation of SSL certificate, so it should not be that difficult. It could only be difficult for website who have HTTP only and hight traffic as transfer to HTTPs can cause some traffic lose. == Changelog == = 0.0.78 – 22.12.2018 = **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when sending comment did not clear the field, but comment was actually added * Fixed issue when real-time update did not work properly * Fixed issue with anchors in specific comment, e.g. domain.com/page.html/#comment-1 = 0.0.77 – 21.12.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Warn users about missing API keys when reCAPTCHA enabled, #333 * Removed .map.css & .map.js files, package is not lighter, #336 * Chart data in Console tab is now display months data in native language + it is now cached **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when user avatars did not display in the admin, #331 * Fixed issue when new comment alert was shown when comment was deleted or on moderation, #335 * Fixed issue when comment notification was sent for non-comment (related to WooCommerce) = 0.0.76 – 09.12.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Speed improvements, comments should load even faster now * "Add comment" placeholder is the comment field is not users semi hidden color from design settings, #329 * Added new hook `anycomment/user/logged_in` fires after user is successfully logged in * Added 304 code notice for WP Super Cache users, #296 **Fixes:** * Fixed design issue when social tab was not displaying proper form styles * Fixed issue when Mail.Ru did not show as active when enabled * Fixed issue when some websites had problem with loading comments or widget in sidebar, #327 * Fixed issue when user was not notified about new reply when sent from admin panel, #330 * Possible fix of invalid nonce error when dealing with cache plugins (implemented for: WP Super Cache, WP Rocket, WP Fastest Cache and W3 Total Cache) = 0.0.75 – 05.12.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Added Yandex & Mail.Ru to authorization options, #282 * Integration settings are not split into tabs for easier navigation * Admin settings are now saved without page reload **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when error was shown in Tools tab * Fixed issue when WP User Avatar settings were not taking affect = 0.0.74 – 27.11.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Added ability guest users to like/dislike, #179 * Added Steam as authorization option, #311 * Added likes/dislikes, #322 * Added new option to control type of likes to display: just likes or likes/dislikes, #322 * JS main dependency is not much lighter ~600kb **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when "New comment was added" alert was not showing when real-time updates option was on, #297 * Fixed possible authentication problem * Fixed issue when guest users could subscribe multiple times for same post * Fixed issue when admin bar setting was not taken affect * GDPR checkbox is unchecked by default = 0.0.73 – 21.11.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Added pretty like animation, #316 * New widget to display list of comment in the sidebar, #319 **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when sender name was not set from the admin panel, #317 * Fixed issue when it was not possible to copy long text as it was folding/unfolding on this action, #320 * Fixed issue when newlines and some of the other issue when user was posing comment as non-admin user * Fixed issue when global border radius was not changing based on the settings value * Fixed issue when repeating error messages could have been shown in case user tried to use admin's email to login via social, #312 * Possible fix to the issue when some of the users experienced problems with real time notification about new comments, #310 **Other:** * Social icons are now on the right of the avatar, #318 = 0.0.72 – 15.11.2018 = **Fixes:** * Fixed issue when alert error message about Instagram was showing on every social tab * Fixed issue with dropdown when items were aligned to the opposite side of it, #307 * Fixed WooCommerce compatibility (#302) + added compatibility when WooCommerce reviews are not used within tabs (#308) * Fixed issue when copyright was not possible to uncheck, #301 * Possible fix for Internet Explorer 11 * Fixed issue when native notification from WordPress was inheriting styles from plugin, #300 * Fixed issue when emails were not sending * Fixed issue when some of the themes were cut or had broken templates because of plugin **Other:** * Added missing translation for subscription form = 0.0.71 – 13.11.2018 = **Fixes:** * Fixed 500 error on latest version = 0.0.70 – 13.11.2018 = **Enhancements:** * Added ability to see list of ratings in "Rating" submenu * Added ability to see list of subscribers in "Subscribers" submenu * Added ability to see list of emails in "Emails" submenu * Added transliteration for username, now instead of having `{socialname}_{username}`, it would be prettier, e.g. john_doe.
