Improving the commenting on sharepoint modern pages by embedding yammer posts (through Topics )
john john Hi, we had applied this approach for classic site, for comments. What we had done is we had created yammer feed for topics/department. and in the page-layout we had added the yammer embedded script with those yammer feed id.

Shijuraj Thanks for the reply.. now in our case we are using modern sharepoint pages.. i started testing this appraoch, i found 2 main issues:-
1. yammer posts will not be included in sharepoint search (not a big issue really).
2. it requires extra manual steps comparing to just using the built-in SP comments, as creating a new sharepoint modern page will require creating yammer posts and link them using a yammer topic which will be equal to the sharepoint modern page title...
but at the end it is better than relying on the built-in sharepoint commenting module, as in this commenting module anyone can delete any comment!! and there is no way to know who deleted the comment nor to recover it :) !!!
