The default theme, but the header image was changed. There is no modification, but several menu tabs were created, as I described earlier.
Hi. Thank you for replying, transom.
Where in the Settings–> Discussion do you need to un-check?
[] Allow people to post comments on new articles
?
I have tried turning off the above, but nothing changes.
“Leave a Comment” button is still there.Which specific setting do you need to turn off? I don’t think there is any setting there to turn-off, in order to remove the commenting buttons? Is there?
Thanks.
Mr. transom,
I would appreciate some advice on where to comment out a few lines in the appropriate code files, so that no one would try to press the dysfunctional buttons “Post Comment” below each blog post. That is all what I am asking here now.
esmi,
I’d suggest you not to order around people.
Thank you for trying to help, though.
Best.
I am not sure if the site owner wishes to share the link here — I have to ask him first.
When I started to build the site, I tried out a few different themes. I remember its unpredictable (unintuitive) behaviors, such as the disappearance of the header image upon a theme change, and the inconsistent behaviors of the menu creation tool to the same command.
That is why I prefer not to change the theme or anything (since everything else seems to be working OK), and instead comment out a few lines in the appropriate code files, so that no one would try to press the dysfunctional buttons “Post Comment” below each blog post. (It would be easier to redirect visitors to our forum site to make comments.)
Thank you for understanding.
Thanks for your reply.
This site is not complex at all, and does not have any plugins installed. It has several menubar tabs linked to other pages. That’s all, and I believe everything is in the “generic configuration”. I have not started any modification on it.
Q1. What do you mean by “the presentation”, the feel-and-looks? Would the Header image etc. be destroyed? What are the exact elements that are going to be displaced? Is there a list of things somewhere on the support docs tells what constitute “the presentation”?
Q2. Again, the site has not been modified in any way, and does not even have any plugins installed.
Thank you in advance for any advice.
Sincerely
What would you loose when you change the theme?
I wonder which is easier (1) to install a new/separate WP site and try to replicate the same issue for troubleshooting, or (2) to comment out a few lines in the appropriate code. I would think (2) might be easier, and would suffice our purpose at this time. Thanks.
Well, then I don’t have any other option than to comment out those lines of the codes that are working to display the “Post Comments” button beneath each blog post. Is there any programmer out there? I’d appreciate a hint as to which file to edit. Thank you.
Hi thank you for your reply, transom.
I cannot change the theme — the site is in use by the public, and it will mean to delete all the banner images, etc. The solution has to be an established way to resolve this issue (can’t try things out) and cannot disturb its users. Alternatively, we will need to disable the ‘Post Comment’ feature from the blog page, and to request its users to provide feedback from other pages.
Any advice on the modification is appreciated.
Thank you.
