Radle Lite – A Reddit Comments Engine


Hi everyone, I'm the lead contributor for this plugin and I wanted to leave the first review to help it get started. I put a lot of love into developing this one, and its the first product I've contributed to in over five years. If you have any trouble at all please create a Github issue and I'll take a look at it as soon as possible. Thanks and I hope others end up using this. Kind regards,Hudson Atwell


Enjoyed developing this!


I recommend it, I tested it on my FSE theme and it worked well...


Works with FSE

Seamlessly integrate Reddit discussions and publishing capabilities into your WordPress site.

<p>This fun plugin just replaces the “Excerpt” meta-box with something more meaningful for the Modern Redditor.</p>
<p>Oh, also, it’s a neat example of custom string replacement using a filter over gettext 🙂</p>
<h3>Support</h3>
