Hi,
I will try it in the next days.

Hi,
I'm not sure that I have the time to try this. Maybe should you contact the jlexreview developer to start a request for a jDownloads plugin. Sorry.

Dear Arno, Thanks for the answer! Otherwise, ist possible to use Disqus instead of comments.
There is a plugin that works great on contents

[Arno]

We must check this.

Hello Arno! I really appreciate the help, time, assistance support you've given to do this.
I had contacted jlexreview developer and they will check it out, but after testing Disqus is much better to use instead of jComments. I wish you can do this as soon as you can.

Hi
I have had a brief look at Disqus.  Seems to me that if you use the free version then you suffer adverts
JComments is free and does allow simple comments OK.  So could you please advise what you find is lacking in JComments.
Also have you seen the articlehttps://fatfrogmedia.com/delete-disqus-comments-wordpress/

Dear ColinM! Thanks for your advice, it was very nice of you for sharing the article about Disqus.
JComments works but Disqus or jlexreview have more features and a better look. I will move to jlexreview for commenting and rating of Jdownloads.
