Pelican Static Comment System
Pelican Static Comment System allows you to add static comments to your articles.
Comments are received via email (i.e. you don't need to maintain a server to receive comments). Comments are stored in files in formats that can be processed by Pelican (e.g., Markdown, reStructuredText). Each comment resides in its own file.
Features
- Static comments for each article
- Replies to comments
- Avatars and Identicons
- Comment Atom feed for each article
- Easily style-able via themes
- Python 3 support

PyPi
The Pelican Comment System is now also in the Python Package Index and can easily installed via:
pip install minchin.pelican.plugins.static-comments
Requirements
Pelican 3.4 or newer is required.
To create identicons, the Python Image Library is needed. Therefore you either need PIL or Pillow (recommended). If you install the plugin from pip, Pillow will automatically be installed.
Install Pillow manually via:
pip install Pillow
If you don't want avatars or identicons, this plugin works fine without PIL/Pillow. You will, however, see a warning that identicons are deactivated (as expected).
Change Log
The change log can be found in the CHANGELOG.rst file.
