Add comments.

Edit comments.

Reply to comments.

Delete comments and comment threads.

Turn comments into comment threads

Reply to a comment to start a conversation. Comment threads allow users to easily exchange ideas and discuss suggestions to a particular part of the content.

Each comment includes the author name, avatar and a timestamp.

Limit permissions with comments-only mode

The comments feature supports the comments-only mode where users are not allowed to make any changes in the content, apart from adding comments.

The comments-only mode can be used as a simpler alternative for track changes. It offers a convenient way of suggesting changes in the document.

Use as a standalone plugin

Comments do not require real-time collaboration to work. The comments feature can be added to CKEditor 5 just like any other plugin.

Comments API allows you to save all comments in your application.

Use with real-time collaboration

Comments are fully compatible with real-time collaborative editing.

Different levels of permissions are supported during real-time collaboration. For example, authors can operate in the editing mode while other users can operate in comments-only mode.
