I’ve just added two plugins to WotM, which provide the following new features:
- Edit your comments: for 30 minutes after posting a comment, you can edit it as you will. This allows you to correct typos or any other mistakes you notice immediately after posting, or to add something you remembered when you were re-reading what you just posted. The 30-minute limit is so that users can’t cowardly
pretend that they didn’t say something way back in the discussion. - Subscribe to comments: below the comment text box, there is a checkbox labeled
Notify me of followup comments via e-mail. By checking it when posting a comment, you can be warned of replies to that discussion by email (of course, you’ll have to include a real email address in the “email” field for it to work; that email is never shown to other readers, though). Every email includes a working “unsubscribe” link, in case you change your mind later.
Any problems, please let me know.

Hi Pedro. You couldn’t list or email me the names of these two plugins, could you? I’d like to do the same. Many thanks!
Sure. It’s no secret, really: both are freely available WordPress plugins, and both are listed on the K2 supported plugins list. The two plugins in question are:
- Edit Comments
- Subscribe to Comments
Enjoy.
I really like the editing option. It’s a good idea.
I can’t remember how many times I’ve clicked “Submit” and smacked my forehead after reading it.
Thanks for that Pedro. I’ll see how they integrate with WP if I don’t use K2.
Sweet
*EDIT* really cool.
