Usage

The Comment Widget

The FastCommentsVueNext component contains the live FastComments comment widget.

Replace "demo" below with your "tenantId" - available here in the FastComments admin area.

The widget supports a lot of options - see FastCommentsConfig here.

<template>
  <FastComments v-bind:config="{tenantId: 'demo'}" />
</template>
<script>
import { FastComments } from 'fastcomments-vue-next'
export default {
  name: 'FastCommentsExample',
  components: {
    FastComments
  }
}
</script>

Updating The Current Page (SPA Example)

In FastComments we call the article id, or page the comments get tied to, the URL ID as it can be a url or an ID. Define the URL ID in the following manner. The component watches for changes in config object, and will reload, so you can update the URL ID.

<FastComments v-bind:config="{tenantId: 'demo', url: 'https://example.com/somepage', urlId: 'some-page-id'}" />

Account Region (ATTENTION: EU Customers)

If your account is located in the EU, set region = 'eu' in the widget configuration, for example:

<FastComments v-bind:config="{tenantId: 'demo', url: 'https://example.com/somepage', urlId: 'some-page-id', region: 'eu'}" />

Otherwise, you do not have to define region.

In Production

You probably don't want to define the config inline if you're passing callbacks etc. Instead, you'll want to define the config via computed(), otherwise each time your callback etc is invoked the entire widget will re-render.

All Widgets and Documentation
