<p>WordPress lets you set a number of days after which comments will be unavailable for individual posts. This plugin will allow you to keep commenting open on specific posts.</p>
<p>Once the plugin is enabled:</p>
<ul>
<li>Set a comment deadline in Settings > Discussion using the “Automatically Close Comments…” option. Closing comments on old posts is a great way to avoid spam comments.</li>
<li>Edit an individual post on which you’d like to keep discussion open indefinitely and check the Override Comment Deadline box.</li>
</ul>


Override Comment Deadline

Allows you to enable comments on posts which are older than the comment deadline set in discussion settings.
