This add-on enables private comment threads within a site's public discussion areas. It is designed for site owners who need to facilitate confidential conversations between users and moderators, or allow users to have private discussions attached to public content. The tool integrates directly into existing comment forms, adding functionality without disrupting the public commenting experience.
Private comment threads: Users can mark a new comment or an entire thread as private. These conversations are then visible only to the original comment author and assigned site moderators or administrators, not to the general public.
Granular role controls: Administrators can specify which user roles have permission to create private comments. You can also define which roles (e.g., editors, custom moderator roles) are allowed to view and moderate these private threads.
Default private setting: An option exists to set all new comments from registered users as private by default. This is useful for support forums or member-only areas where public discussion is not desired.
Selective form activation: The private comment feature can be enabled or disabled for specific comment forms. This allows you to activate it only on certain post types or pages, such as support tickets or private project updates, while leaving other areas for open discussion.
Moderator notifications: The system sends customizable email alerts to assigned moderators when a new private comment is posted, ensuring timely responses to private inquiries or reports.
