@dan @ben , Is there a plan for a built-in or homegrown commenting system within the CMS? Probably not unless RM has created a very slick flat-file capability. Last I read there was no current plan to add a database to Elements at this time.

A commenting system won’t be included in the initial version of the CMS, however, it is certainly doable with the backend API we’ve built.

Something for the future 😃
