Coding Comment Box/Rating System for WP

[Matt Geer]

Hey Guys-

Im in need of some coding/tutorials of coding for a comment box for WP-

I realize the posts already have comment boxes but would like some for my pages.

Has any one done this and can you provide the coding for this or a solid tutorial that I can follow? Ideally I would be able to shut it on/off like the posts or at the very least have it always off and be able to just code it directly into each page.

Is there a plug-in for this? I would rather to code it to prevent possible future issues from plug-ins but if I cannot code it myself I will have to resort to a plug-in if available.

Also, I have seen several plug-ins for rating systems (stars/thumbsup-down/smiley faces/middle fingers/etc) Has anyone coded their own? Again, would rather code something as opposed to using a plug-in if possible.

As always, thanks for all the help

Looking at the long list of comments, I know that Comment Rating has hit something that some of us are passionate about. I’m really glad this little plugin can be useful, in the Web 2.0 user generated content arena.
As always, the design principle of the plugin is to be simple, efficient and widely applicable. A little flexibility doesn’t hurt.

For ratings there is a wordpress plugin called WP Review Sites.

Comment forms work just fine on a page and is supported. Most theme developers leave them out when creating the theme. You can include it on your page.php file:

<?php comments_template(); ?>

I use a plugin called "GD Star rating" for my new PowerPoker Rakeback minisite. You can see the plugin in function under the post at my site.
