This question about Using an extension: Answered
I would like to use a comment plugin that does not require the commenter to have edit permission on a topic.
Is
MetaCommentPlugin the only way to do this?
Is
MetaCommentPlugin in a working state? I installed/ran configure, but
%METACOMMENT{}%
is just rendered as-is.
any help/advice appreciated!
You can tell the standard
CommentPlugin to write comments to a different topic (read
the doc)
MetaCommentPlugin is not in a fit state to use, AFAICT.

Just to add a bit to Crawford's comment, a setup I have often used is to create a separate comment topic with different permissions and then include that in the primary topic. Have the
CommentPlugin template post the comments to the comment topic and then redirect back to the primary topic. This is simple and works nicely.

MetaCommentPlugin is used on production sites and works just fine.

I am embarrassed to say that I noticed these things a while ago, but forgot to file any tasks. Doing so now.
