    Is there a way to close comments on all questions and answers? Comments don’t have a captcha, so they attract lots of spam. I’d like to disable the commenting completely, but don’t see an option to do that.

    Hi,
    You can add the following code to the style.css file:

    .dwqa-comments {
    display: none;
    }

    This helps somewhat, but I don’t think spam bots read CSS. Is there a filter I can use to remove the whole reply form?

    You can open the content-single-question.php and content-single-answer.php file in the templates folder and remove the following code:

    <?php comments_template(); ?>
    It’s all the option to help you remove the comment box.
    Hope this helps!
