[Plugin: PhotoSmash Galleries] Removing commenting from pictures?

Hi Amy,

It sounds like you’ve got the images set for the thumbnails to open to the Attachment page. You could set them to open to the full sized Image instead and then have that pop up in Lightbox or Shadowbox or Thickbox, etc.

If you wanted it to continue to open in the Attachment page, but not have comments on the attachment page, you would probably have to edit your Theme’s attachment.php file.

Look for something like:

<?php comments_template('', true); ?>

and put a ‘\\’ before ‘comments_template’.

If your theme doesn’t have an attachment.php file, then it would use the single.php file to display the attachments. In that case, you would need to change that line to something like:

<?php
if( !is_attachment() ){
comments_template('', true);
}
?>

Be sure to make back up copies of your files before changing them. It’s quite easy to mess things up, so it’s always good to have a clean point you can get back to where you know everything works.

Cheers,
Byron
