I admit, I did very little digging, but I’m in the middle of writing a module that would, ideally, tie into the comments module to allow users to, er, comment. 😛
Is there a way to attach comments to something other than a weblog entry?

I am afraid not. All comments are intrinsically tied to an entry via the entry_id. That said, you don’t have to show the parent entry enywhere, it just needs to exist in the db.

Yeah, I was mostly just hoping that I could tie that entry_id to a different database table…
Looks like I’ll be implementing my own überComments module as part of the project. It shouldn’t be too difficult, just a bit annoying. By the time I’m done, the only EE parts of this project left will be the forums and the member system. 😛
