It sounds like you’re talking about a pingback. You can disable it from Admin|Settings|Discussion. Uncheck Attempt to notify any blogs linked to from the article. Or, you can do it on a post-by-post basis under “Discussion” below the post you’re creating/editing. You might need to enable “Discussion” in the “Screen Options” menu at the top … Read more
Ian Stewart’s Ultimate Theme Tutorial will help you understand the comments.php. You can use the following code suggested by him: <?php /* The Comments Template — with, er, comments! */ ?> <div id=”comments”> <?php /* Run some checks for bots and password protected posts */ ?> <?php $req = get_option(‘require_name_email’); // Checks if fields are … Read more

Currently there are only options to pre-moderate all comments, or comments from unverified users globally. If you wanted this kind of granularity, you can always register a new Disqus shortname (which is a container for all of your comments/settings) and install the … Read more
I just did a quick test and the comment blacklist appears to be ignored for logged in administrators (possibly other roles). It does effectively block comments when logged in as a subscriber. I suspect that that is the behavior you are seeing.
You could create a hidden dummy post and use always its post ID as comment_post_ID. Then use a comment meta field to store the related ID from your custom table. The other, and probably better option: use custom post types, not tables if you need something that acts like a post. Register that post type … Read more
