# Front End Enabled?

 * We are using the Crayon Syntax Highlighter [https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/](https://en-ca.wordpress.org/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/)
   but it seems that the developer is MIA as a lot of users are experiencing an 
   issue with it since last WP update.
 * **Quick question** – are we able to use this plugin for front-end commenting?
   We do not allow users to access the WP backend to edit posts, questions or answers.
   Everything is handled via front-end.
 * Also, as we currently use Crayon – if we start using your plugin instead, will
   all current code snippets revert or will all current code snippets be striped?
   We have over 300 users posting snippets so if I have to revert all those posts
   manually to use Pastacode, that would be pointless.
 * Thanks in advance!

 * Hello,
 * Actually the plugin isn’t natively compatible with front-end commenting, but 
   I have a short snippet to make this possible (if you’re using the default comment
   form). I’ll share this snippet as soon as I can!
 * I wrote [another plugin to migrate from Crayon to Pastacode](https://wordpress.org/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter-to-pastacode/)
   if you’re interested 🙂

 * Hello again,
 * I worked on a new version that allow commenting on front-end with Pastacode. 
   Do you want to [try Pastacode 2.0RC1](https://bitbucket.org/willybahuaud/pastacode/downloads)?
 * Have a nice day!
