Webflow Commenting for Sports Predictions
Revolutionize your sports event prediction site with our dynamic commenting feature, creating an engaging platform where enthusiasts can share insights, strategies, and predictions.
Diverse Perspectives and Insights
Users gain insights from various perspectives as different people share their predictions and reasoning, leading to a more informed decision-making process
Real-Time Discussions
During live events, commenting allows for real-time discussions, adding excitement and a sense of camaraderie among users as the action unfolds
Increased User Retention
Engaging comment sections can encourage users to return to the site regularly to participate in discussions and check other users' predictions and comments
Learning and Strategy Development
Newcomers and less experienced users can learn from more seasoned predictors by reading their comments and analyses, helping them develop better prediction strategies
How it works
Add fully customizable commenting to a Webflow project. No coding is required; it's maintenance-free and comes with built-in moderation features, permission, user accounts, edit, delete, and reply functionality. Notifications, real-time commenting, and public profiles are in the roadmap.
We recommend starting with one of our cloneables. Click here for the full list of cloneable components.
Getting Started
We recommend starting with one of our cloneables - we've already released one for blog comments, one for live stream comments, and one for video comments. Click here for the full list of cloneable components.
Commenting will be a paid add-on - however, any paid Memberstack apps with at least one comment before January 1, 2024, will have raised limits on the free plan and heavily discounted pricing - for life!
Structure/Overview
There are something like 60 unique attributes in the commenting UI, so be very careful when updating the HTML structure. Frequent testing will be key to avoiding frustrating debugging sessions.
Each commenting section is called a "Channel" and has an attribute of data-ms-channel="". If the Channel ID is empty, then Memberstack will look to the page slug to decide where to save the comments, and when to load them. Inside of a channel are your posts and threads.
Public Custom Fields
Ensure that custom fields used in your commenting UI are marked as 'public'. This allows you to build your own usernames displayed with comments using the data attributes:
Note: If the field value is empty, the default text in your commenting UI will appear instead.
data-ms-post-creator="Your_Field_id"
data-ms-thread-creator="Your_Field_id"
Ordering Posts & Threads
Utilize the two available attributes to adjust the order as needed.
data-ms-channel-sort="newest" // default is oldest
data-ms-thread-sort="newest" // default is oldest
Pagination
Use the following attributes to set the maximum number of posts or threads to load at a time.
data-ms-post-load="100" // default 50 & max 100
data-ms-thread-load="100" // default 20 & max 100
Multiple Sections Per Page
If you want to display multiple commenting sections on a single page you'll need to manually set the Channel ID using the data-ms-channel="Your_Channel_ID" attribute.
Waiting for Moderation
If you enable moderation settings in the dashboard, or flag a comment as spam/hidden, we will display a message to the commenter. Place the following attributes on a div containing your "Wait for Moderation" prompt. Note there are 2 attributes. 1 for posts and 1 for threads.
data-ms-post="hidden"
data-ms-thread="hidden"
Constraints
Max character count for a post or thread is 5,000 characters.
Formatting is unavailable at this time.
Creating Moderators
In Memberstack's dashboard, admins can grant 'moderator' roles to members. Moderators have the authority to edit or delete any post, ensuring a clean and positive community environment.
