That looks fine to me. Did you give the form type ‘comment’?
hi Els. Form type doesnt affect the functionality of a form. It’s just for categorization and for the tags generator.

But if i look at the right one, i get the normal comments not the custom form which i refer to at my plugin.
did you turn off auto-append comments in the site preferences?.
I insist with the FAQ I’ve linked: it takes some hours to make your head around how to use all the comments forms and tags.

Re: how do i make a custom comment-form.
One last two questions.
The trick was to make a seperate section.
Now the custom form works.
How do i change the underlined name in not underlind.
Now it is a link to a homepage. That’s not what i want.
How to make the dates in Dutch.
All the dates are in englisch form and the mean language of TPX and the site are Dutch ??

Re: how do i make a custom comment-form.
The names are underlined because they are links to the websites that people who comment enter in the comment form. If you don’t want that, you would have to hack the plugin code (can’t help you with that). If you just don’t want to underline the names, you can put something like
#guestcomment a {text-decoration: none;}
in the CSS.
The dates are in Dutch, but if you look at the available date formats for comments (beheer > voorkeuren), you will see that there are other formats that look better in Dutch.
