• Some posts have many comments, and I want to close these posts for future comments and start a newer post on the subject. But I don’t want to uncheck “allow comments,” because I want to leave the comments already on the old post.

    How can I leave old commentss but close for future comments?

  • You can uncheck the box — the comments won’t be deleted and should still show up.

    Thanks, HandySolo. That worked. Perhaps I’m mistaken, but I was thinking I had tried this in an older version of WP and it caused all comments (even the previous ones) to be hidden. Maybe not. Anyway it works find now. Thank you.

    Some theme’s may do that (hide ’em when closed), I’d guess.
