Description

This lightweight plugin removes the “Posts” and “Comments” sections from the WordPress admin menu, disables commenting functionality across the site, and can disable the Gutenberg editor site-wide.

Ideal for sites that only use Pages or custom post types and want to simplify the admin interface.

Features:
* Removes “Posts” and “Comments” from the admin menu
* Disables comments and pingbacks across the entire site
* Disables the Gutenberg block editor and restores the classic editor
* Removes the comments admin bar link and related widgets
* Cleans up the editing screens by removing comment options
* Allows SVG and ICO uploads to the Media Library

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/santi-tech-disable-posts-comments directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
  3. Visit Settings > Santi Tech to configure which features you want to enable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I re-enable comments later?

Yes. Just disable the “Disable Comments” option in Settings > Santi Tech.

Does this affect custom post types?

No, this plugin only targets the default “Posts” and “Comments”.

Will disabling Gutenberg affect my existing content?

No, your existing content remains the same. This only changes the editor interface to the classic editor.

Is it safe to allow SVG uploads?

SVG files can contain scripts, so only enable this if you trust your admin users.
