Hello!
After struggling with a Joomla white death screen on Monday and while cleaning-up, I discovered a feature in Joomla articles that inserts a reply submission form and a discussion button ilinked with EasyDiscuss. See at the bottom of the article. I am using Komento so such form should not be included.

Secondly, when clicking on view discussion button, it links with a forum set-up on EasyDisccuss:
https://www.frontmatter.com/discussions-categories/publishing-publishers/25-world-wild-web
I also noticed that several Joomla articles created were posted in EasyDiscuss as posts. It started back in August 2016…There were no activities in EasyDiscuss in August and September.
Something that I did not set-up. Was I hacked? I don’t know. I was able to relaunch the site after disabling several content statistics plugins. Is it a new a new feature added in EasyDiscuss or Komento in latest updates?
Looking forward to your reply,
Thanks & regards,
Agnes
