Panel

Besides the on-page feedback widget, the plugin surfaces comments inside the
Kirby Panel in two places: a global Feedback area and a per-page
comments section you can drop into any blueprint.

Feedback area#

The plugin automatically registers a Feedback entry in the Panel menu.
It lists every comment across the whole site, grouped by page.

Disabling the Feedback area#

The area is registered under the id loop. Its visibility is controlled by
Kirby's built-in access permission, which defaults to allowing access. Set
access.loop to false in a role blueprint to hide the menu entry for that
role and block the area's API requests.

Disable it for a specific role (e.g. editors):

# site/blueprints/users/editor.yml
permissions:
  access:
    loop: false

To disable it for everyone, add the same permission to every role blueprint or remove it from the menu by modifying panel.menu in your config.php. There is a simple to use plugin for that: Kirby Panel Menu.

Per-page comments section#

Use the loop-comments section to show only the comments that belong to the
page the section is placed on. This is handy on a page blueprint so editors see
feedback in context while editing.

Add it to any page blueprint:

sections:
  feedback:
    type: loop-comments

Placed on site.yml, the section is no longer scoped to a single page and lists all comments across the site instead. The status option still applies, so status: open on site.yml gives you every open comment site-wide.

Options#

label#

Type: string|null
Default: the plugin label (Feedback)

Sets the heading shown above the comment list. Accepts a plain string or a
translation array.

sections:
  feedback:
    type: loop-comments
    label: Page feedback

# Translated label
sections:
  feedback:
    type: loop-comments
    label:
      en: Page feedback
      de: Seiten-Feedback

status#

Type: string
Default: all
Values: all | open | resolved

Controls which comments the section lists. Use open to show only unresolved
comments, resolved for resolved ones, or all (default) for both.

# Only show open comments
sections:
  feedback:
    type: loop-comments
    status: open

Example blueprint#

title: Article

columns:
  - width: 2/3
    fields:
      text:
        type: textarea
  - width: 1/3
    sections:
      feedback:
        type: loop-comments
        label: Feedback

Deep linking to a comment#

In the Feedback area and the comments section, clicking a comment's
colored marker opens the page in a new tab and jumps to that comment.

The link uses the anchor #loop-comment-{id}, e.g.
https://example.com/blog/my-post#loop-comment-42. You can also share these links
directly.

When such a link is opened, the on-page widget opens its panel, scrolls the
comment's marker into view and briefly highlights it (resolved comments, which
have no marker, are revealed in the panel list instead).
