What is the context of COMMENTS_FILTER_NEED_CONFIRM

Post by JWalker »

Hello,

For translation purpose, what is the context of usage of COMMENTS_FILTER_NEED_CONFIRM string?

Code: Select all

@define('COMMENTS_FILTER_NEED_CONFIRM', 'Pending user confirmation');

Hi!

Comments can now be put into a "pending" state, that is comments not need approval from the ADMIN, but from the user himself to authenticate his comment. This is done to prevent other people entering mail addresses from users and putting comments in their name.

HTH,

Hi,

I have thought that this is a confirmation of an user (an user should be confirmed somehow) and have wondered why the constant has 'COMMENT' in its name.

Will this text be put above a comments list, or will be shown when a non-confirmed comment is shown?
