Description

Delete & Disable Comments is a powerful tool for WordPress administrators to efficiently manage their site’s comments. With this plugin, you can:

  • Delete all spam comments with one click
  • Delete all comments (with option to create a backup first)
  • Disable comments site-wide
  • Download a backup of your comments before deletion

The plugin is designed to be simple to use while providing robust functionality for comment management.

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/delete-disable-comments directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
  3. Use the Settings->Delete & Disable Comments screen to configure the plugin

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I recover deleted comments?

Yes, if you create a backup before deletion. The plugin offers a backup option before performing any deletion operation.

Will disabling comments affect existing comments?

No, disabling comments only prevents new comments from being added. Existing comments remain visible unless you explicitly delete them.
