Just recently, I’ve tried to add an option that disables loading all comments upon reload of the page (with the disableCommentsLoad option) but hasn’t been quite possible yet ever since. Been stuck on this entire frame loading problem in my “under-construction” advanced comments plugin demo and it’s been really hard to resolve as of right now. I also added a ?disableCommentsLoad=true URL parameter into the generator page so that it disables reloading all comments directly after page load.

It would also be great if that feature would actually be implemented into the comments plugin itself. Could be very handy to avoid situations like the “connection stalling” problem (see this post and the comment), and just to overall reduce unnecessary background connections, especially if you’re on a browser that doesn’t have a “memory saver” feature (essentially to “sleep” tabs like that to stop all the connections in the background).

But yeah, this time I wanted to make a post instead of troubleshooting the problem myself to see what solutions from other people could be (and especially for the known issues on the project). 🙂

Here’s a demonstration from the thumbnail (with the disableCommentsLoad option enabled).

    Thanks!! It worked pretty great so far. And I didn’t even know I could’ve used the window.generatorName trick instead of changing the generator name straight away onto the iframe right after it loads. 😆

    I’ll be working on rewiring the functions in the alpha demo later.
