Leaving comments on WordPress out of the box isn’t very user friendly, and although it can be made easier with use of editing and quicktag plugins, what WordPress really needs is a What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) comment editor.
I’ve just installed a WordPress WYSIWYG comment editor called MCEComments and I think it should make it very easier for readers to leave comments. not only does it allow you to see in real-time what you’ve entered removing the need for a comment preview plugin, but it also adds a lot of new functionality to the toolbar that is customisable in the WordPress admin console. It does all this by using the internal TinyMCE library bundled with WordPress 2.0 and up.

The following buttons can be added to the MCEComments toolbar:
- separator, bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, justifyleft, justifycenter, justifyright, justifyfull, bullist, numlist, outdent, indent, cut, copy, paste, undo, redo, link, unlink, cleanup, help, code, hr, removeformat, sub, sup, forecolor, backcolor, charmap, visualaid, blockquote, spellchecker and fullscreen
I haven’t added all of these functions as my toolbar isn’t wide enough, and I’m not sure if I need that many options.
MCEComments also allows users to resize the comment form; invaluable if you are leaving a new comment.
