  How about a chatterbox? Those boxes on a sidebar that people can just write whatever they want instead of leaving comments on a post. I think those are html and not javascript.

  How about creating a new page that has a tab at the top of your site that when clicked, the chatterbox is right there? Or do something like how you created the message board/forum on your site. Or get a text widget and put the html code in there for the chatterbox.

  But first check and see if it’s html and not javascript. But here’s one link that I found on a friend’s chatterbox:

  http://www.shoutmix.com/

  If it’s html, you can set up a text widget and place the code there and it will be right there on your sidebar if you want.

  I don’t know much about it. How about taking the page source from that link?

  Why not just use a page?

  • Create a new page called Feedback
  • Put in descriptive and explanatory text, please leave a comment blah, blah
  • Make sure comments are enabled for that page
  • Make sure there’s an entry somewhere on the main page to the feedback page (built in theme menu, Pages sidebar widget or a text sidebar widget link if need be)
  • turn on comment moderation and recieve email when comment needs moderation

  One feedback system.

  How do you enable a comments for a new page?

  It should be enabled by default I think but

  Edit the page,
  On the right had side there’s a box called: discussion.
  If there’s a ‘+’ sign in the corner click it once
  You should see an option Allow Comments…
  Make sure the box beside it is ticked
  Save the page

  Aha! I just tried it out on my blog using the default wordpress theme, and it doesn’t work under that.

  However, I was trying out a different themes earlier today and it did work under at least one of those: It stood out because I hadn’t seen it happen before. The theme was possibly Contempt 1.0 or Regulus 2.1.1.

  So it looks like it is theme dependant.

  You’ll have to have a play and see which it is, and if you like the theme enought to stick with it. You can change your theme under Dashboard->Presentation->Themes.
