Hello.
I'm trying to disable comments on custom post type with the following snippet but no luck.
add_action('wp', 'jm_simple_comments', 15);
function jm_simple_comments() {
if( is_singular('mec-events') ) {
remove_action( 'generate_after_do_template_part', 'generate_do_comments_template', 15);
}Please help
Hi there,
can you share a link to where i can see the CPT with Comments ?
here you go
OK so thats a template from the MEC plugin, so GP has no control over that.
But i did find this which may be of use:
howdy. I was mislead by the fact that filtering worked.
Thanks.
You are a saviour.
Glad to be of help
Acutally, in case anyone lands on this page, I found a universal useful bit here.
function my_prefix_comments_open( $open, $post_id ) {
$post_type = get_post_type( $post_id );
// allow comments for built-in "post" post type
if ( $post_type == 'post' ) {
return true;
}
// disable comments for any other post types
return false;
}
add_filter( 'comments_open', 'my_prefix_comments_open', 10 , 2 );The conditional check can even be outside of the handle and we just use add_filter( 'comments_open', function(){return false;} );
Graceful.
Thanks for sharing that :)
