It also offers optional filters to block comments containing URLs or email addresses, and always blocks scripts for security—all without adding bulk to your site.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I override settings per post?

Use the Comment Close Settings box when editing posts/pages. Leave fields blank to use global defaults.

Will it slow down my site?

No. It uses WordPress’ built-in object caching and no extra tables—calls only run when checking comments or saving posts.

Can I allow links or emails?

Yes. Under settings, you can enable or disable link and email blocking. Script blocking is always active for safety.

Will it work on pages or custom content?

It supports posts and pages by default. If you need other post types, let me know—future updates may include that.

Is this plugin secure?

Yes. It always blocks scripts in comments and uses WordPress best practices—nonces, sanitization, escaping, and proper permissions.
