The code you’ve provided does remove the website URL field from the comment form. However, bots can still directly POST to the wp-comments-post.php file with a URL included. To prevent this, you can remove the URL from the submitted data before it’s saved to the database. You can achieve this using the preprocess_comment filter. Add … Read more
I was answered in the WordPress Forums. The solution is to pass the entire HTML for the comment_field, like this: ‘comment_field’ => ‘<textarea id=”comment” name=”comment” cols=”45″ rows=”5″ maxlength=”65525″ required=””>’. __(‘Prewritten comment’,’textdomain’).'</textarea>’,
Show success message on comment submit when email and name is not required field
Comment form: Add Radio button logic [closed]
If you control the theme the simplest way to fix this is passing the submit_field argument into comment_form(): comment_form( array( ‘submit_field’ => ‘%1$s %2$s’, ) ); Default: <p class=”form-submit”>%1$s %2$s</p>, where %1$s is the submit button markup and %2$s is the comment hidden fields. which removes the <p> altogether.

I covered just the other day some of the comment (textarea) filters here, https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/a/366147/144392 But the filters you may want to look into are most likely, comment_form_fields comment_form_field_{$name} EDIT 11.5.2020: Codex example for comment_form($args), $comments_args = array( // Change the title of send button ‘label_submit’ => __( ‘Send’, ‘textdomain’ ), // Change the title of … Read more
Is there a Function so that the author of the comment can delete his own comment?
After further research I found some relevant functions. Keep in mind it’s probably better to separate these into different functions, and if your WordPress theme gives you any trouble, check this out. // disable url field function disable_comment_url($fields) { if(isset($fields[‘url’])) unset($fields[‘url’]); return $fields; } add_filter(‘comment_form_default_fields’, ‘disable_comment_url’); // disable email field function disable_comment_email($fields) { if(isset($fields[’email’])) unset($fields[’email’]); … Read more
Something like this should be pretty universally functional across themes, as long as they use something like the normal comment form code. if ( ! current_user_can( $capability_required_for_commenting ) ) { add_filter(‘comments_open’, ‘disable_comments’, 20, 2); add_action(‘comment_form_comments_closed’, ‘display_no_comment_permissions_message’ ); } And then somewhere you’ll want to define: function disable_comments() { return false; } function display_no_comment_permissions_message() { ?> … Read more
I didn’t solve this but don’t want to waste anyone else’s time on it. I decided to create individual user accounts for every visitor instead.
