Unchecking Allow comments keeps comments visible??
-
Hi
I was very surprised to notice something that I must have totally misunderstood:
1. A page has comments
2. Author of the page wants to stop discussion
3. Unchecking “Allow comments”
==>Comments cannot be added anymore, but…
a) They are visible
b) MINE can still be editedResearching forum, it believe the intention is to actually really just switch off the ability to add to a discussion but I feel it is not enough.
I was expecting to not see the whole discussion anymore.Anyhow:
– CSS does not solve it, as the content is still in the source
– arguing with several theme authors will be fruitless
– I feel we need a 3rd checkbox in DISCUSSIONS: [ ] Hide
–>This can be also useful when you want to hide discussions for a while.
There could be a new method in core that themes could use (and of course filters, etc.)Am I the only one who was expecting different behaviour from this flag?
thanks
