☝ A real gallery with comments enabled — open any photo and use the comments sidebar.

Comments, built for photo galleries

Not a bolted-on widget — a comments experience that lives right where the image does.

Comments live in the lightbox, not a separate page

Every photograph carries its own thread. A visitor opens an image and the conversation about that image is right beside it — reading, replying and posting all happen without leaving the gallery.

  • Threaded replies fold under the comment they answer
  • A count beside the heading shows how busy a photograph is
  • A toolbar button hides the sidebar when someone just wants the picture

Moderated where you already moderate

These are ordinary WordPress comments. They land in the same screen as the rest of your site, with the same approve, reply, edit, spam and trash actions you already know.

  • Stored as native WordPress comments — no separate database
  • Hold them for approval, or let them publish straight away
  • Whatever anti-spam and notification setup you run already applies

One conversation per photograph

Move to the next image and the sidebar follows it: each photograph keeps its own thread, so feedback stays attached to the frame it is actually about.

  • Comments are tied to the individual image, not the whole gallery
  • Turn the whole thing on or off per gallery
  • The sidebar can start open, or collapsed until asked for

A comment box that fits the lightbox

A plain, familiar box at the foot of the sidebar — write, post, done. It is the WordPress comment form, so there is no new service to manage and nothing extra to maintain.

  • Built on the native WordPress comment form
  • Reply threads nest under the original comment
  • Works across every Modula gallery layout
