Page likes and comments =========================================== The block makes it possible for the end user to like and comment (or add a social reaction if that is allowed) a specific web page, including news and community pages (knowledge articles and discussions). It is also possible to reply to comments and it can be possible to use mentions. Besides that, users can share the page with others by Email. .. image:: comments-and-likes-v75.png It is possible for the end user to edit and delete a comment, made by the user, by using the menu. .. image:: comments-and-likes-pen-v75.png When a comment is deleted it works this way: If there are no answers to the comment it will just be removed. If there are answers, the comment will be replaced with a text that states that it has been deleted and by whom. Everyone can delete their own comments. A publishing app administrator can delete any comment. Turning the options on or off ------------------------------- When the block is added to a page (or to the page type), authors can turn on or off likes and/or comments using Write mode. .. image:: page-likes-author-v75.png This can be very handy if the block "Page likes and comments" is present in a page type, but should not be used on every page. (Note that social reactions is allowed in this example. If social reactions is not allowed, the option is "Allow likes" instead of "Allow social reactions".)
