Solution for comments for a Rails application

Question

I'm introducing comments into a Rails application, and, being exceptionally lazy, I'm looking for a plugin to do it for me. I came across acts-as-commentable, but I didn't find much else. Acts-as-commentable seems fine, but it doesn't have support for threading.

Of course, it wouldn't be too hard just to home-brew the entire thing, but I think that surely commenting is such a common feature that there should be a canonical plugin to handle it. Can somebody with perhaps more Google Fu than me point me in the right direction?

Answer 1

This is acts_as_commentable_with_threading plugin which help you for threaded comment. Link:: http://github.com/elight/acts_as_commentable_with_threading

Answer 2

The most lazy approach would be to use third-party commenting system like DISQUS : just copypaste a couple of javascripts and you're done.

Surely, it can't be used if your app has an authentication system of its own.
