i have used this component recently after trying many so called high rated comment system.Its very simple and wonderfully perfect
Glad to see this extension is 2.5 now! I really missed it.
Note to the developper: Pls use another donating system. I've read u only got 45 dollars from donations. Considder using paypal or another payment system. I would have dontated if i did not had to enter my cellphone number.

This comment component is simply the best component for this purpose. I recently finally migrated to the new Joomla! 2.5 and was looking for Jcomments and was dissapointed to see that Jcomments was not available for 2.5. I tried several other components that were not as good as this one. I nearly gave up but decided to check the Jcomments site itself and saw that a 2.5 version was available! I'm happy again, but you should place a 2.5 icon on this site :)
I've been so desperate for JComments to be available for 2.5 -- and now it is! I notice it isn't shown in the JED that way yet -- but go to the developer's site. Get it. Install it. Say goodbye to the nightmare lack of comments on newer versions of Joomla. I can now update a number of older sites that I'd delayed updating! YES!
In short: this installs like a dream. The default layout works on most sites. You can easily put an over-ride or even customize your own theme for it. It works with KCaptcha, so a simple, clean captcha system that doesn't scare off commenters.
Gravatars work on older versions and I see they are coming for newer versions. Voting? Sure. Specialized permissions? Absolutely. RSS? Works great. Want to customize your smilies? Tree or flat display? It is all here. I've used this on some big production sites and had nothing but joy.
THANK YOU to the developer for updating this component!

One of the main reasons I haven't upgraded my website to Joomla 1.6/1.7/2.5 is jcomment for joomla 1.6-2.5. Thanks for this new release. I am now also translating 2.3.0 into Khmer (km-KH) language.
I have been one of the waiting and it is definitely worth the updated versions. Installed and set up in minutes, and immediately remembered why this was the best commenting component out there. If you are new to jcomments, don't look any further....if you gave up on waiting for the latest release, it is worth coming back home. Great Job on the new version. I love it.
incredibly powerful component with good support! five stars.
