Technical

To take in account third party payment extensions using custom implementations of Magento_Checkout/js/action/place-order.js to submit the order, this extension sends the order comment in a separate request during the validation, before the order is placed. It should therefore work out of the box., _(*10)

Uninstall

If you installed this module through composer, then you can run php bin/magento module:uninstall Bold_OrderComment to automatically remove the code and drop the columns added by this extension., _(*11)

note: the uninstall command seems bugged and might get stuck at Removing code from Magento codebase: (It worked fine for me on a 2.1.0 install but not on a 2.1.4 install). When this happens you should exit with ctrl+c and run, _(*12)

composer update
php bin/magento maintenance:disable

See github issue 3544, _(*13)

Alternatively you can manually remove the extension and remove the column bold_order_comment from the tables * quote * sales_order * sales_order_grid, _(*14)
