Re: [campsite-support] Comment Form Hidden Fields
  • Hi Lee,

    We will maintain the backward compatibility as much as possible. We had a
    major compatibility break between 2.x and 3.0 versions because we rewrote
    the template engine in PHP, using Smarty. But this is here to stay, so you
    should not have any compatibility issues for many many years from now on.

    We can implement an option to allow the site admin to set which comment
    fields are mandatory and which are optional, although this is quite low on
    our priorities and we have a lot of urgent work to do. But you could help by
    implementing this feature and submitting it to us. We'll hapilly accept help
    in the form of coding.

    Mugur
