The Disable Comments RB Plugin is a valuable tool for administrators seeking to completely disable comments on their website. Our plugin offers global disabling functionality, effectively removing all comment-related features and options across posts, pages, and attachments. With a focus on simplicity and power, our plugin streamlines the process of managing comments by employing a smart algorithm.
By installing and enabling our plugin, administrators can seamlessly eliminate comment-related elements from the Dashboard, Widgets, and Admin menu. This ensures a clutter-free interface and a smoother user experience for both administrators and visitors alike.
However, if you have specific sections of your website where comments are desired, our plugin offers the flexibility to selectively disable comments. Rather than globally disabling commenting, administrators can choose to deactivate this functionality only in the necessary areas of their WordPress site.
For those unsure of how to disable comments on individual posts or pages, our support team is readily available to provide assistance. Additionally, our FAQ section offers comprehensive guidance on navigating the plugin’s features and settings.
Whether you seek to globally disable comments or selectively manage commenting functionality, the Disable Comments RB Plugin offers a versatile solution tailored to meet your website’s needs.

Before enabling the Disable Comments RB plugin, it’s highly recommended to delete any existing comments to prevent potential conflicts with your current theme. Depending on the theme’s code, existing comments may remain published, causing visual or functional discrepancies.
Disabling comments on your website doesn’t necessitate any special skills or code modifications. Simply install the Disable Comments RB plugin and access its settings to activate the primary functionality. Installing the plugin from the directory and enabling the “Disable Comments” function in the plugin settings streamlines the process effectively.

Disable Comments

I originally used the "Disable Comments" plugin. However, when it started spamming the WordPress dashboard with its notifications requesting to track data, I switched to "Disable Comments RB", which was a huge improvement.

A little while back, "Disable Comments RB" added advertisements to their settings page. I continued to use it because most of my clients will never see that page, and I never visit it after setting up the plugin. However, now this plugin places a brightly colored icon in the main WordPress menu.

Why does a plugin with a total of one option (and an option you will likely never change) need a top-level menu item? And why brightly colored, so it stands out like a sore thumb?

...unless it is there to get people to click on it so they can see the ads on the settings page.

Sadly moving on

Latest update (v1.0.14) introduces advertisments.

Moved from the Disable Comments plugin to this, to get rid of the ads.

I will be switching to a non-adware plugin again.

EDIT:
Updated from 2 stars to 1, since last update introduced yet another unwanted item, this time a root-level menu item.

Kind Regards
- Allan

Update introduced ads


All it does is hook into the admin to hide comments control, and stop pages from displaying comments....basically another layer of code that has to be loaded and run for every single requests.  


Doesn't actually disable comments

Disable Comments - easy tool to disable comments for your blog posts, and pages. Admin can disable comments in just a few clicks.
