MonkNote for WordPress.

MonkNote, packaged as a one-click WordPress plugin.

WordPress runs a large share of the web, and most sites either use Disqus (which slows pages and harvests visitor data) or turn comments off entirely. MonkNote for WordPress is a single plugin you install from the WordPress admin. One click and your site has threaded comments, reactions, moderation, and SEO-friendly server-side rendering, all on your own database. No script tags, no third-party iframe. The full MonkNote backend, packaged for WordPress.

// what's planned

Core features.

  • 01 One-click install from the WordPress admin. Activate it and comments are live, no API keys to paste, no separate account to wire up.
  • 02 Threaded comments, reactions, and replies that inherit your theme, rendered server-side so search engines index every conversation.
  • 03 Moderation from the WordPress dashboard: approve, reject, spam, and delete without leaving the admin you already use.
  • 04 Your data lives in your own database. No Disqus, no third-party iframe, no visitor tracking, no cookies on your readers.
  • 05 Works with any theme and the block editor, with a settings panel for appearance, moderation rules, and SEO output.
