Ajax Comments lets people post, reply to, edit, and delete comments without reloading the page.

The difference between 1.x and 2.x

8.x-1.x rebuilds the whole comment thread every time a comment is posted, edited, or deleted. That was a departure from the Drupal 7 (and earlier) versions.

2.0.x updates only the comment that changed, the way the Drupal 7 and earlier versions did and the way modern commenting systems work. New development happens on 2.0.x.

New in 2.0.x

  • Updates only the comment that changed.
  • An Ajax Comments field formatter, set under Manage display.
  • Built-in Ajax pagination, with Load More and Load Previous links.
  • Many long-standing bugs and issues have been resolved.

Upgrading from 1.x

Run drush updb. It moves comment fields that had Ajax Comments turned on to the new formatter. 2.0.x works a little differently, so verify all your comment fields before you deploy. If you have custom code built on the comment field markup, see the README.
