[Resolved] Remove websites field from comments section

[Vish]

Hello there

Need help with removing websites field from the comments section. I tried hiding the field using CSS but the bots are getting really smart and it doesn’t help in reducing spam.

I am looking for a way to permanently remove the websites section.

Thanks in advance!

Hello!

1) Try to add this to your functions.php:

function hm_disable_comment_url($fields) { 
    unset($fields['url']);
    return $fields;
}
add_filter('comment_form_default_fields','hm_disable_comment_url');

2) Use e.g. this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-hide-comment-url/ .

3) Add this CSS:
#commentform .comment-form-url {display:none;}

Choose the one you prefer. 🙂

Best regards,
Heiko
