## Description

This plugin has one purpose, replace the default comment field that just accepts
plain text with a rich text editor similar to the one used when writing posts on
admin accounts.

Credit and inspiration for this plugin goes to:
 * [Renji](http://sumtips.com/2012/12/add-rich-text-editor-wordpress-comment-form-without-plugin.html)*
[Reuben](http://www.revood.com/blog/adding-visual-editor-to-wordpress-comments-box-part-2/)

 2. Locate RTE Comments in the results.
 3. Click Install Now
 4. Comfirm the installation.
 5. Activate the plugin.
 6. That’s it. There are no settings to configure.

## FAQ

  Why doesn’t the rich text editor show up for me?

One of three reasons or a mixture of any combination…
 * You are not logged in as
an admin. * The theme is not using the [comments_form()](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/comment_form)
template tag. * There is a javascript error in theme or another plugin.

  Are there any known plugin conflicts?

Yes, just one with cforms II. The conflict ccan be resolved by changing a couple
settings in cforms. On the cforms Global Settings admin page under the WP Editor
Button Support section uncheck both options and save the settings.
