Erweiterte Konfiguration

Ein Teil des Pluginverhaltens kann von Website-Administratoren und Plugin-/Theme-Entwicklern mittels Code verändert werden:

  • Definiere DISABLE_COMMENTS_REMOVE_COMMENTS_TEMPLATE und setze es auf false, um zu verhindern, dass das Plugin das Kommentartemplate des Themes mit einem leeren ersetzt.

  • Define DISABLE_COMMENTS_ALLOW_DISCUSSION_SETTINGS and set it to true to prevent the plugin from hiding the Discussion settings page.

Diese Definitionen können entweder in der wp-config.php– der Installation oder in der functions.php-Datei des Themes gemacht werden.

DIESES PLUGIN WIRD JETZT GEPFLEGT VOM TEAM WPDeveloper.

Source Code

The plugin build compiles assets/js/disable-comments.js from src/disable-comments.js with Babel and assets/css/style.css from assets/scss/style.scss with Sass, using Grunt. These sources are not included in the plugin zip. Other first-party JavaScript and CSS files in assets/ are maintained directly.

Both the sources and the build configuration live in the GitHub development repository. To build them yourself:

npm install
npm run build

Bundled third-party assets

The Select2, pagination.js, and SweetAlert2 JavaScript/CSS distributions are bundled separately from the Grunt build. Their full license notices are in assets/licenses/. The DM Sans webfont notice and SIL Open Font License 1.1 are in assets/fonts/OFL.txt. The plugin license is in LICENSE.txt.

  • Select2 4.1.0-rc.0: source and build files, MIT license.
  • pagination.js, bundled header 2.1.5: upstream source, MIT license. The CSS matches upstream 2.1.5; the modified JavaScript is shipped in readable form at assets/js/pagination.min.js and is not rebuilt by Grunt.
  • SweetAlert2 10.10.1: source and build files, MIT license.
  • DM Sans latin webfonts, distribution v11: upstream source, SIL Open Font License 1.1.

External services

Disable Comments connects to one external service, and only if you opt in.

WPInsight usage analytics (opt-in, off by default)

WPInsight is WPDeveloper’s usage-analytics service. We use it to learn which WordPress versions, PHP versions, plugins and themes people run alongside Disable Comments, so we can keep the plugin compatible with them.

  • When data is sent: only after an administrator clicks „Sure, I’d like to help“ in the opt-in notice. It is sent once at that moment, then about once a day by WP-Cron (only the details that changed since the last report), and once more when the plugin is deactivated. If you click „No Thanks.“ or ignore the notice, nothing is ever sent.
  • What is sent: your site URL and site name, WordPress version, site language and charset, PHP version, server software, whether the site is a multisite, text direction, the server path of the plugin, the lists of active and inactive plugins, the active theme and its version, the Disable Comments version, and the account email address of the administrator who clicks the opt-in button (used to send the discount coupon). A daily report can also include the current logged-in user account email; a background report without a logged-in user omits email. Reports also include the plugin name and identifier, tracker version, activation status and marketing flag, service-assigned site identifier, and original site URL when available. On deactivation it sends the same details again, plus the account email address of the administrator who deactivates the plugin, the deactivation time, and the reason and any note they enter in the deactivation form. Like any web request, the connection also reveals your server’s IP address to the service.
  • Where it is sent: https://send.wpinsight.com/process-plugin-data
  • Terms and privacy: Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policy

The „Still Seeing a Comment Form?“ check on the plugin’s settings page also requests pages of your own site to check what your theme outputs. Those requests go to your own site only and send nothing to a third party.

FAQ

Es passiert nichts, nachdem ich die Kommentare für alle Beiträge deaktiviert habe – Kommentarformulare werden beim Betrachten meiner Beiträge weiterhin angezeigt.

Dies liegt darin begründet, dass das verwendete Theme den Kommentarstatus falsch prüft.

You may like to point your theme’s author to this explanation of what they are doing wrong, and how to fix it.

Wie kann der Text „Kommentare sind deaktiviert“ am Ende von Artikeln mit deaktivierten Kommentaren entfernt werden?

Das Plugin versucht sein bestes beim Verstecken von dieser (und anderen kommentarbezogenen) Nachrichten.

If you still see the message, then it means your theme is overriding this behaviour, and you will have to edit its files manually to remove it. Two common approaches are to either delete or comment out the relevant lines in wp-content/your-theme/comments.php, or to add a declaration to wp-content/your-theme/style.css that hides the message from your visitors. In either case, make sure you know what you are doing!

Ich möchte Kommentare nur bei bestimmten Beiträgen deaktivieren, nicht global. Wie geht das?

Wechsel zur Bearbeitungsseite des Beitrags, bei dem die Kommentare deaktiviert werden sollen. Scrolle nach unten zur „Diskussionen“-Box, wo sich die Kommentaroptionen für diesen Beitrag befinden. Wenn Du keine „Diskussionen“-Box siehst, klicke auf „Anzeigeoptionen“ am oberen Fensterrand und stelle sicher, dass die „Diskussionen“-Box aktiviert ist.

Du kannst auch den Kommentarstatus mehrerer Posts auf einmal über die Beitragsansicht bearbeiten.

Ich möchte Kommentare aus der Datenbank entfernen. Was soll ich tun?

Go to the tools page for the Disable Comments plugin and use the Delete Comments tool to delete all comments or according to the specified post types from your database.

This cannot be undone. Back up your database before running it.

How do I disable comments across an entire multisite network?

Network-activate the plugin. The settings then live under your Network Admin, where you can either apply one configuration to every site at once or configure individual subsites from the network screen. If you activate the plugin on a single site instead, it only ever affects that site.

How do I disable WooCommerce product reviews?

WooCommerce product reviews are stored as comments on the product post type, so disabling comments on product turns reviews off too. To remove reviews that already exist, use the Delete Comments tool and select the product post type.

Can I configure the plugin from WP-CLI?

Yes. Settings and deletion are both scriptable, which is useful across a fleet of sites:

wp disable-comments settings --types=post
wp disable-comments settings --types=page --add
wp disable-comments settings --xmlrpc --rest-api
wp disable-comments delete --types=all

Run wp help disable-comments settings for the full list of options. Full WP-CLI documentation.

WordPress 6.9 added “Notes” in the Block Editor. Will this plugin break them?

No, as long as you allow them. Notes are technically a comment type (note), so a blanket disable would switch them off along with everything else. Use the Enable Certain Comment Types setting to keep Notes working while all other comments stay disabled.

I disabled comments but a cached page still shows the comment form.

As of version 2.8.0 the plugin clears page caches automatically whenever you save settings or delete comments, so this should resolve itself. If your host or CDN is not covered, it can hook disable_comments_purge_caches to clear its own cache at the same moment.

Note that the plugin never touches your object cache — only page caches. The stale thing is rendered HTML.

Can AI assistants read my comment settings?

Yes, on WordPress 6.9 and above. The plugin registers a read-only disable-comments/get-status ability through the WordPress Abilities API, so AI assistants, the command palette and MCP clients can ask the site where comments are disabled. It is read-only and requires the manage_options capability — nothing can change your settings through it.

What happens if I deactivate the plugin?

Comments go back to whatever WordPress and your theme did before. The plugin filters comment status at runtime rather than rewriting your posts, so your original per-post settings are still intact underneath.

The one exception is the Delete Comments tool: comments it removed are permanently gone and deactivating will not bring them back.

EXCELENTE!!!!

Los spammers estan a la orden del dia, este plugin te ayuda a mantenerlos fuera de tu sitio publicando sus cosas que a veces comprometen tu sitio y lo hacen lento, altamente recomendado!!!

Awsome

One of my many websites has been getting hacked by numerous Russian comments, as many as twenty a day! I spent hours online with my hosting company, InMotion Hosting, trying to block this, but they suggested using their CloudFlare feature, which was a total pain! I then researched how to block comments on a WordPress site and this was just as much of a pain, with no way to block comments on all posts and pages. Then I discovered this plugin and it worked in about two minutes to block comments everywhere on the site. Thank you!

Simple and Helpful

Disable Comments did what I needed without much setup. Easy to use and saves time when managing site content. Worked fine on my end, though a few extra options would make it even better.

Änderungsprotokoll

The format is based on Keep a Changelog
and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning.
This will be maintained from August 19, 2020 – @asif2bd

[2.9.1] – 2026-10-25

  • Improved: Settings tabs now show in the page URL, so a tab can be linked or bookmarked and stays open after a refresh
  • Fixed: The network-admin „Custom post types“ label on the Disable Comments and Delete Comments tabs no longer renders at 10px
  • Fixed: Saving settings no longer triggers a PHP warning when „Everywhere“ has never been set
  • Improved: Several minor improvements and fixes throughout the plugin

[2.9.0] – 2026-09-01

  • New Feature: Conditional rules – disable or re-enable comments by taxonomy term, page template, or post age, instead of by post type alone
  • New Feature: Dry-run preview for Delete Comments – see which comments a delete will remove before running it, and download them as CSV first
  • New Feature: Blocked-attempt counter – see how many comment, trackback and REST attempts the plugin has turned away, reported in Site Health
  • New Feature: Export and import settings as JSON, with a diff preview before anything is written
  • New Feature: WooCommerce product reviews are now a first-class setting, separate from ordinary comments, including closing reviews while other product comments stay open
  • New Feature: Theme conflict scanner – diagnoses a theme that still renders a comment form after comments are disabled
  • New Feature: Abilities API write support (WordPress 6.9+) – AI assistants and MCP clients can change comment settings and delete comments, gated on the same capabilities as the admin screens
  • New Feature: The advanced tools now have a Settings tab of their own, leaving the first screen to the core choice of where comments are off
  • Improved: The Delete Comments preview lists the comments it matched – author, date, post and an excerpt – rather than only how many there are
  • Improved: Conditional rule terms are searchable, so a taxonomy with more than 200 terms is fully reachable
  • Improved: Site Health reports conditional rules, so the overview no longer reads „comments are enabled everywhere“ while a rule is closing them
  • Improved: Settings screen layout – aligned rule controls, a readable blocked-attempt breakdown, consistent label sizes, and result boxes that match the rest of the plugin
  • Improved: readme and plugin directory listing rewritten for clarity
  • Fixed: CSV backups escape every free-text column, so a comment cannot execute as a formula when the file is opened in a spreadsheet
  • Fixed: An anonymous REST read is no longer counted as a blocked attempt
  • Fixed: „Counting blocked attempts since“ keeps its start date instead of showing today’s date until the first block
  • Fixed: A delete that matches nothing no longer reloads the whole settings screen
  • Fixed: The review prompt can be dismissed on every screen it appears on
  • Fixed: Uninstall removes the review-prompt data the plugin created
  • Fixed: The Abilities API set-status summary describes the site’s configuration rather than the calling user’s role exemption
  • Fixed: „Total Comments“ says what it counts, so it no longer contradicts the mode-specific delete preview
  • Developer: disable-comments delete gains --dry-run and --export=<file>; new disable-comments export and disable-comments import WP-CLI commands

[2.8.0] – 2026-07-27

  • New Feature: WordPress Abilities API support (WordPress 6.9+) — AI assistants, the command palette and MCP clients can now ask the site where comments are disabled, via the read-only disable-comments/get-status ability
  • Fixed: Page caches are now purged when settings are saved or comments are deleted — previously a cached page kept serving the comment form after comments were disabled
  • Compatible with WordPress 7.0

[2.7.1] – 2026-07-22

  • Improvement: General improvements

[2.7.0] – 2026-04-05

  • Improvement: Improved overall performance and stability

[2.6.2] – 2026-01-20

  • Fixed: An issue where deleting Notes in WordPress 6.9+ throws an error

[2.6.1] – 2025-12-02

  • Compatible with WordPress 6.9
  • Added: Introduced the “Enable Certain Comment Types” setting, allowing you to exclude the new Block Editor “Notes” comment type introduced in WordPress 6.9
