    Hi,

    WP Customer Area does not support comment in any of the private content.

    If you see a “comment” box on the pages where the private area is inserted, it is comming from your theme. Please understand that those comments won’t be private and could easily be published publicly by some widgets or external third party plugins.

    Anything that is not inside the frame of the private area is not from WP Customer Area.

    You could instead use the Conversations add-on.

    Regards.

    Side note:

    WP Customer Area does not support comment in any of the private content.

    By this, I mean that WP Customer Area does not handle comments and related comments forms by default. Your theme does.

    We’re not disabling the possibility to post comments into private pages, but you’ll need to take care about the fact that comments are part of the default WP system. This means we cannot prevent any third party plugin, widget, or even RSS feed to fetch those data and display them somewhere on your site.

    That’s why they are disabled by default. It doesn’t mean you can’t use them, it means you’ll need to take care that there isn’t a feature on your site that could display comments unwantingly.

    It is better recommended to use the Conversations add-on, especially if you use the Projects add-on, since conversations can be assigned to the project. In that case, only assignees to the projects could see and participate to the conversations.

    Projects actually act as some kind of containers, which contain some relations to single posts. They are not single posts.
    Comments can only be attached to single posts.

    Regards.

    Hi, is it possible to view the group of users participating in a page or project in the front end? For example, is there a shortcode to recall the assigned user group?

    Hello,

    We don’t have any Shortcode to do that automatically.

    This would require custom development.

    I would recommend in that case to take a look at our template system. That will help you to learn how to print debugging information in the code of the page, and learn how to locate the templates being used. For instance, this part of code is located in customer-area/src/php/core-addons/customer-private-files/templates/customer-private-files-single-post-header.template.php

    Feel free to reuse the code anywhere else on your site.

    We cannot unfortunately provide further assitance for this kind of customization, sorry.

    Regards.
