User reviews
for this short time i used it, it works great! but i was searching for this kind of engine to find comments and be able to interact with it, sadly you can only view the comments, not like or comment or reply

Using since long time.. but there are some features like using "global:". Is there a place where you have listed all such features which is there in this extension
