Modules
Stackend modules are small pices of code that provides additional functionality for your site.
Stackend will process any elements on your page that has a recognized data-stackend-type attribute. They will typically look something like:
<div data-stackend-type="stackend-cms" data-stackend-id="123:456"/>Some modules have additional parameters controlling the behaviour and appearance.
These are the supported modules:
Comments
Displays a list of comments and allows users post a comment.
The comments are associated with the url where the module is included. If you use more than one comment module the parameter data-reference-id needs to be set.
Attributes

- "stackend-comment" - The module type. Required.
- data-stackend-id
