Comment Settings

The Comments section controls whether students can post comments on lessons across your site. It is a single site-wide toggle that individual courses and lessons can override.

What you can do

  • Turn lesson comments on or off site-wide with one toggle.
  • Let students discuss a lesson directly under it when comments are enabled.
  • Keep the site-wide setting as the default while a course or lesson overrides it where needed.

How to use it

Step 1 -- open Comments

Go to Learnomy Settings and click Comments in the sidebar.

Step 2 -- toggle lesson comments

In the Comment Settings card, switch Allow students to post comments on lessons on or off. This is the site-wide default.

Step 3 -- save

Click Save Changes. When on, a comment thread appears under each lesson in the player unless a specific course or lesson overrides it.

Settings and options

Field Option key Notes
Enable Lesson Comments enable_lesson_comments Site-wide toggle stored in learnomy_settings.

Course-level comments (separate from lesson comments) are planned for a future release, so that toggle is intentionally not shown here yet.

For developers

  • \Learnomy\Models\Lesson::get_effective_comments_enabled( int $lesson_id ) -- resolves the final on/off decision for a lesson by combining the site-wide enable_lesson_comments setting with any per-course or per-lesson override. Use this rather than reading the raw option, so overrides are honoured.
