FastComments adds real-time commenting to your Drupal site. Replace Drupal's built-in comments with a fast, hosted commenting system. No database tables, no spam management, no performance overhead.

Features

  • Live Comments Real-time commenting widget that updates instantly as new comments arrive. No page reloads needed.
  • Streaming Chat A live chat mode for pages that need real-time conversation (events, livestreams).
  • Collab Chat Text-selection annotation. Visitors highlight text on your page and start discussions in context.
  • Image Chat Coordinate-based annotation on images. Visitors click on an image to leave comments tied to specific locations.
  • Recent Comments block Show recent comments across your site in any sidebar or region.
  • Top Pages block Display your most-discussed content.
  • Single Sign-On (SSO) Sync Drupal user accounts with FastComments. Supports both Simple (no server-side secret) and Secure (HMAC-verified) modes.
  • Comment counts Display comment counts on teasers and listings.
  • Multilingual Automatically passes the current Drupal site language to the widget.
  • Noscript fallback Server-rendered comments for visitors with JavaScript disabled.
  • EU data residency Configure CDN and API URLs for EU-hosted FastComments instances.

Post-Installation

  1. Go to Administration > Configuration > Content > FastComments (/admin/config/content/fastcomments) and enter your Tenant ID and API Secret. You can find both under Settings > API/SSO in your FastComments dashboard.
  2. Add the FastComments field to your content types via Structure > Content types > [type] > Manage fields.
  3. Place additional widget blocks (Live Chat, Collab Chat, Image Chat, Recent Comments, Top Pages) via Structure > Block layout.
  4. Optionally enable SSO to link Drupal user accounts with FastComments.

Additional Requirements

  • A FastComments account (free tier available).
  • No additional Drupal modules required. Only depends on Drupal core (user, field).

None required. The module is self-contained.

Similar projects

  • Disqus Third-party hosted commenting. FastComments offers real-time updates, annotation widgets (Collab Chat, Image Chat), and does not serve ads.
  • Drupal core Comment module Built-in commenting. FastComments offloads comment storage and moderation to a hosted service, reducing database load and eliminating spam management.
