# About the Comments API

The Comments API allows you to manage a customized commenting program that lets site visitors share feedback or engage
in discussions about different types of resources, including blog posts, forum threads, or other site content.

With the Wix Comments API, you can:

+ Allow commenting on any page of a site.
+ Mark specific comments to highlight and feature to a site's visitors.
+ Engage with visitors who aren't site members through guest commenting.
+ Moderate a single comment or multiple comments.

## Integrations

The Comments API is fully integrated with several Wix solutions. Each integration uses a slightly different
configuration to work with comments.

The following table details the supported integrations:

+ [Provide comment analytics](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/crm/community/feedback-moderation/comments/comments/sample-flows.md#comments_comments_sample-flows_provide-comment-analytics)

## Terminology

+ **Marked comments:** When a comment's `marked` field is set to `TRUE`, it indicates that the comment has been flagged
  or marked for special attention. No additional automated behavior or action is taken with the comment. However, you
  can manually filter for comments marked as such
  with [Query Comments](https://dev.wix.com/docs/api-reference/crm/community/feedback-moderation/comments/comments/query-comments.md) and highlight them to site 
  visitors as needed.
+ **Parent comments:** Parent comments refer to comments that have subsequent comments directly responding to them. They
  serve as the original or initial comments in a conversation thread. The parent comment's unique identifier is stored
  in the `parentComment.id` field of the corresponding reply comment.
+ **Replies:** Replies are comments that are made in direct response to earlier comments within a discussion. They are
  specifically intended as responses to a particular parent comment and contribute to the ongoing conversation. Replies
  help maintain the hierarchical structure of comment threads and enhance the engagement and interactivity among users.
