I originally bought a bundle to get all the components to test them out which I added to various sites.
I can say that now I cannot renew in the same way so am forced to buy each separate now.
Ok thats fine and I can afford the generous pricing, but why is there a free komento and a paid one ?

What is the difference between free and paid ?

What happens if I upgrade my old paid 1.6x to the free one ? TBH I am considering to remove komento since it loads so many things in the page even the home page where it isn't used. I wish I could export the kommento comments into the easy blog native one...

Thank You
Hi,

You can refer to Komento's pricing page for more information. http://stackideas.com/komento/plans

We are currently preparing to release Komento 1.7 that will significantly improve loading times especially javascripts.

Hi Jason
If you cant commit to reducing the js requests I must get rid of komento unfortunately as speed is very important. There are SO many for your products that is slowing my site down - I can only imaging how many are needed for the social product.

Hi,

As mentioned before, we are preparing the release of Komento 1.7 (expected beta on next Monday) that will significantly improve loading times. We've even tested internally with some 3rd party page speed test and our JavaScript results shows significant improvement.

All of our products next update will also be on this new javascript framework.

Are you committing to a single file ? Ideally there would be a cdn hosted for css and a cdn hosted for js. Both being minified. I am thinking if I could easily do this myself - I could manually copy and paste in the code to a single file and save...But how and where to turn off the imports in the components ?

Might be worth me starting a new thread to explore this idea.

Hi,

Core scripts will all be combined into 1 single file and minified as well.

This is actually already applied in EasySocial and the latest EasyBlog as well.

I am not quite sure what you mean with "turn off the imports in the components".

I wanted to turn off the imports myself so that I could add my own condensed single file of your scripts made into one ! This is great if you make this happen. I also heard you have done that with EB now - couldn't quickly see which one it was but great news.

Hi,

I see. Upcoming Komento and EasyDiscuss (which is expecting to be in Beta next week) will have the same framework implemented as well.
