    I hope this is the correct place for this thread. I have a normal webpage and want to give my users some way to add a simple comment. I don't want to use wordpress or any blogging software. What is the best way to implement a simple commenting system like this?

    Probably not the most practicle approach, this may be a bit overkill for something as simple and readily available as a comment script.

    There are plenty of PHP & mySQL comment scripts out there readily available for free, there are even some tutorials teaching you how to code them. Here are some links,

    www.zimmertech.com/tutorials/php/25/comment-form-script-tutorial.php

    There are plenty more, I did a simple google search for "free php comment script" I have not checked if the abover links are any good, so use at your own discretion.


    However, as milesbparty suggested, the best way to get a firm understanding of how you would code a system like this would be to learn a programming language and how to interact with a database using SQL.

    Thanks this is really helpful. When I googled I wasn't able to find anything.
