Are you in need of some more commentators or want to allow commentators to receive points for commenting to get something?

With the CubePoints WordPress plugin you can, CubePoints allows you to choose a certain amount of points for each comment posted by a certain commentator. You can offer premium content, allow readers to purchase merchandise or maybe even an advertisement for your blog with a certain amount of points.

When they post a comment the points set in the administration panel is added to that person’s comment account and if their comment is deleted, it automatically removes the points. You, as the administrator can even alter the points quickly and easily from administration!

If you want to display how many points a commentator has accumulated in the sidebar, you can use this code:

<?php cp_displayPoints(); ?>

You can download and install this plugin from the WordPress Directory. It was just added on December 26th.

This is a good idea. But, I’m a member of Entrecard and they play with this kind of credits to purchase so many things and also advertisement.

Add commenter groups and this would be perfect for a Harry Potter-related blog.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. this will definitely help encourage comments, but I just got to think of something to give out as a reward though. Any suggestions?

Thanks a ton for the info!
