Hi Jim,
thanks for contacting me! Would be great if you promote it 🙂
No, you cannot change your mentioned behaviours.
It’s not meant to close the popup automatically when a new comment is submitted.
The increase of the comment count number is already on my list.
The comments at the bottom will not be updated since that would depend on your theme.
But I’m planning to rework the plugin and it’s likely that future updates improve your mentioned issues, and user experience in general.
Best regards,
Kevin
Okay, thanks for your speedy reply! We can provide online help to our students to clarify the above.
Indeed, your plugin fills an important gap: a number of annotation plugins are no longer supported, and Livefyre Sidenotes is not working for us…possibly for the same reason that Livefyre Comments doesn’t: it doesn’t support SSL…and at any rate I’d really like to avoid Livefyre/Disqus/etc.
I’ll bump up to Premium, and look forward to your updates!

This is a fantastic plugin, one I could imagine promoting among a number of my academic colleagues to encourage their students to comment in a more close-reading manner. I plan to update to Premium soon to provide support. One question: I have WP Ajaxify Comments installed and enabled, but when a comment is submitted (via Post Comment button), the comment entry box doesn’t close, the comment count number isn’t iterated, and the comment doesn’t appear at the bottom of the page. All of these do happen after the page is refreshed, but it could be confusing for the user to submit a comment without these actions happening automatically. Is there a setting in your plugin, or in the Ajaxify plugin, that I should modify?
Many thanks,
Jim P.
