• Hi

    Another post of mine led me to make this post as a new one.
    And, I’m sorry if my topic of my post has previously been suggested or debated, but I think it is worthy!
    When I create a new item (post, page, category), I’d like to be able to individually Enable/Disable comments/author name or date
    for each new item added or being edited.
    So, in my mind, the following options are worthy to be added in WP. This would be highly appreciable.
    For each new item created, added or edited, we should be able to:

    Enable/Disable comments for this post
    Enable/Disable comments for this page
    Enable/Disable comments for this category
    Hide/Show author(s) name(s) for this post
    Hide/Show author(s) name(s) for this page
    Hide/Show author(s) name(s) for this category
    Hide/Show date for this post
    Hide/Show date for this page
    Hide/Show date for this category

    The order of execution priority could be post>page>category. That is, if a post set up to hide/show comments or dates, this will have the priority over the page’s hide/show option and so on… for the category and the remaining options…
    What do you think about that?
    Could you please consider this as a suggestion for WP?!

    Thank you

    Enable/Disable comments for this post
    Enable/Disable comments for this page

    You can already do that.

    Edit post (or page). Click on ‘Screen options’ (upper right, light grey box), and check the option for ‘Discussion’. Now you can enable/disable on every post 🙂

    Category pages are archive pages and permit no comments.

    Showing/hiding author and date from pages, posts and categories is a theme choice.

    FYI, three posts with the exact same subject/content is not okay 🙂 Please post once.

    I’m closing your others.
