    To Support,
    Thanks for creating enabling a useful function in displaying comments.

    One factor that I wasn’t sure how to enable was for the following scenario:
    System is enabled so users can comment via the usual wordpress function.We’ve enabled your better comments plugin and inserted by shortcode comments into the content of a page/post.

    The problem now is that comments are showing twice.

    They display in the conetent where we placed the shortcode.This is expected and what we want.
    However, default comments also display in the bottom of the page.

    What is the best way to remove the duplicate display i.e. the default comments display at the bottom of the post/page?

    Cheers

    Update: only way I could find was to add custom CSS to the template to turn off the standard wordpress comments from displaying.

    Is that the best way to resolve this OR is their a better solution?
    What , if any, undesirable/ known side effects of doing this?

    Hi @cmsinno9 ,

    Thanks for your interest in our Better Recent Comments plugin.

    Our plugin merely allows you to display all comments from different posts and place them somewhere other than your sidebar or footer.

    To do what you describe, please see this tutorial to turn off the comments.

    I hope this helps. If you have any questions/concerns, kindly fill up a form at our Support Center so we can get back to you much sooner.
