hCard Commenting is a small Plugin that allows your users to easily fill out the comment forms of your WordPress Blog using an hCard. I got this Idea from SignUp pages like bragster.com or getsatisfaction.com.
After the installation, you get a small (import hCard) link behind your URL field in the comment form (if not, use <?php hcard_commenting_link() ?>
).
If you want to write a comment using this festure, you simply have to fill out the „Website“ field with an URL to one of your hCards and to klick the „import hCard“ link.
…and thats it.
To try out this plugin, you can use my comment form.
One of the next steps would be some kind of avatar feature using the hCard photo
(thanks to Brian Suda for the idea).
You can download this version on the WordPress Plugin area: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hcard-commenting/
Very nice idea 🙂 Just too bad that it’s not really sane to put your „normal“ email address into a hCard :-/ But esp. for larger forms like registration forms (as you’ve mentioned) this is simply a great solution 🙂

Komisch, auf dieser Seite scheint es zu funktionieren, auf meiner jedoch nicht. Ich benutze das Sandbox Theme, könntest du mir da helfen ?
Gerne, was bekommst du denn für Fehler? Läuft auf deinem Server PHP 4 oder 5?
I never hear hCard before.
Thanks for sharing this good info, and your time to write such application 🙂
I like it … downloaded and installed it on one of my blogs…don’t really think it can compete with disqus though..:)
