Question

To use the CommentPlugin with the "return" type (the comments are written to a second page but also shown in the context of the original page, which is returned to after entering the comment), is the syntax given somewhere? Or is there some other part of the documentation which, if read as background, would implicate the syntax and options which may be specified with this?

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Ah ha. The version of CommentPluginExamples installed locally can be viewed in edit mode to learn some (all?) of the syntax. I've been in the habit of reading the documentation on the twiki.org site, since in some instances it's more complete there. But in that context the example code can't be viewed in edit mode.

(Is it a design choice to block those who can't change a page from using edit mode to "reveal source," just an accident of development, or is there an in-between perm level that would allow that for online docs in this sort of instance? Or perhaps the CommentPluginExamples page should repeat the examples as verbatim blocks, so the online version is more useful?)
