Title: Override Comment Options Author: Jeff Starr Published: Oktubre 15, 2019 Last modified: Hulyo 18, 2026 --- Maghanap ng mga plugin ![](https://ps.w.org/override-comment-options/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2173899) # Override Comment Options Ni [Jeff Starr](https://profiles.wordpress.org/specialk/) [I-download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/override-comment-options.3.0.zip) * [Mga Detalye](https://tl.wordpress.org/plugins/override-comment-options/#description) * [Mga Review](https://tl.wordpress.org/plugins/override-comment-options/#reviews) * [Pag-install](https://tl.wordpress.org/plugins/override-comment-options/#installation) * [Development](https://tl.wordpress.org/plugins/override-comment-options/#developers) [Suporta](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/override-comment-options/) ## Deskripsyon This plugin overrides WordPress “automatically close comments” option on a per-post basis. So you can leave comments open on any post(s). 👉 Want to keep comments open on a few old posts? This plugin is for you. 👉 Uses only 4KB of code, so super lightweight, fast, and effective. **Features** * Clean, secure code * Written according to the WP API * Simple, lightweight, and flexible * Localized and translation ready * Cleans up after itself when uninstalled **How it works** In the WordPress Discussion Settings, there is an option called “Automatically close comments on posts older than” whatever specified number of days. When this setting is enabled, comments will be disabled on any posts that are past the deadline, whatever“ x” number of days. What WordPress is missing is a simple way to override that global option on a per- post basis. That’s exactly what this plugin does. For any post that is past the comment deadline, this plugin will display a small meta box on the “Edit Post” screen for each post. There you can check the box to enable comments on the post. Comments will then remain open for that post indefinitely, until the box is unchecked or the plugin is uninstalled. Check out the screenshot below to get a better idea. For more details about how it works, visit the [Installation docs](https://wordpress.org/plugins/override-comment-options/#installation). **Privacy** This plugin does not collect or store any user data. It does not set any cookies, and it does not connect to any third-party locations. Thus, this plugin does not affect user privacy in any way. Override Comment Options is developed and maintained by [Jeff Starr](https://x.com/perishable), 15-year [WordPress developer](https://plugin-planet.com/) and [book author](https://books.perishablepress.com/). ## Mga Screenshot [⌊OCO Meta Box displayed on Edit Post screen⌉⌊OCO Meta Box displayed on Edit Post screen⌉[ OCO Meta Box displayed on Edit Post screen ## Pag-install **Installation** 1. Upload the plugin to your blog and activate 2. Make sure the Discussion setting “Automatically close comments” is enabled 3. Done! [More info on installing WP plugins](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/manage-plugins/#installing-plugins-1) **Usage** This plugin does not provide a settings page. Instead, it displays a small Meta Box in the sidebar of the “Edit Post” screen. There you can check the box to enable comments on the post. Comments will then remain open for that post indefinitely, until the box is unchecked or the plugin is uninstalled. **Note:** The override meta box will not be displayed if the post is not past the comment deadline (whatever “x” number of days). **Note:** On the “Edit Post” screen, the override meta box will be displayed in the sidebar or beneath the content editor, depending on how things are configured with the theme, etc. Check out the screenshot on the [plugin homepage](https://perishablepress.com/wordpress-override-comment-options/) to get a better idea. **Like the plugin?** If you like Override Comment Options, please take a moment to [give a 5-star rating](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/override-comment-options/reviews/?rate=5#new-post).

All plugin settings and related metadata will be removed from the WordPress database when the plugin is deleted via the WP Plugins screen. ## FAQ ### Questions? Feedback?
