Hi,
You can disable comments on posts from here: http://screencast.com/t/xV1gIp6bSRY and the comments area will disappear completely. (that is if you use the default comments. If not, check plugin settings.)
Thank you!
But what if you want comments disabled on some posts and not others. That is the problem with this, it’s all or nothing. There should be a way to have comments on posts and selectively disable them.
The big problem is with custom post types and comments will not work.
Hi
You can disable the comments for a specific post from WordPress post editor: http://screencast.com/t/7ERqOZtAbMwV
To have the comments available for custom post types you have to declare this in your code. I’ve found here some useful information in this regard, it may help: http://wpsites.net/web-design/add-support-for-comments-on-single-custom-post-type-pages/
Thanks!
You are not following the problem. I know how to disable comments, thats not the problem. The problem is if I disable comments, there is still a theme generated comments area that will say “No Comments”. Shouldn’t that not even be there if comments are disabled?
Hi
Thanks for reporting this. Indeed that sections should’t appear if the comments are disabled for a specific post. Now the theme doesn’t check if that option it’s enabled or not, that’s why that sections appear even if the comments are disabled.
I have added this on our feature request list and we will try to implement it in the next theme updates.
Sorry for any inconvenience!
Thanks!
Hello JBH,
This latest update was more for Visual Composer and still working hard for solving this problem. Please understand that we have to do a lot of fixes and improvements and that thing lasts. Sorry for the inconvenience but we will consider in next major update.
Thank you for your understanding!
