In order to use Django-comments-xtd it is required to declare the setting COMMENTS_APP:
COMMENTS_APP = "django_comments_xtd"
Additionally, Django-comments-xtd’s behaviour may change depending on the following two settings.
Optional
This setting establishes whether a comment confirmation should be sent by email. If set to True a confirmation message is sent to the user with a link she has to click on. If the user is already authenticated the confirmation is not sent.
If is set to False the comment is accepted (unless your discard it by returning False when receiving the signal comment_will_be_posted, defined by the Django Comments Framework).
An example:
COMMENTS_XTD_CONFIRM_EMAIL = True
Defaults to True.
Optional
This setting establishes the ASCII string extra_key used by signed.dumps to salt the contact form hash. As signed.dumps docstring says, just in case you’re worried that the NSA might try to brute-force your SHA-1 protected secret.
An example:
COMMENTS_XTD_SALT = 'G0h5gt073h6gH4p25GS2g5AQ25hTm256yGt134tMP5TgCX$&HKOYRV'
Defaults to an empty string.
