CommentXpert

Navigate to WP Admin -> CommentXpert and check the "Enable Private Comments" option. After enabling this, users will be able to mark their comments as private, making them visible only to the comment author and site administrators.

There are no specific dependencies for this setting. However, you should ensure that you have an active comment system on your site for the feature to work.

Once enabled, users will see an option to mark their comment as private when submitting a comment. Only the comment author and site administrators will be able to view these comments. Other users will not be able to see these private comments, ensuring confidentiality.

This feature is useful for situations where you need confidential feedback or discussions that should not be visible to the general public. It enhances privacy and allows for sensitive conversations to take place on the site without being exposed to other visitors.

Navigate to WP Admin -> CommentXpert and check the "Eliminate Comment Author Hyperlink" option. This will remove the link to the comment author's website from their name in the comment section.

No specific dependencies. It will work as long as your comment system is enabled.

Once activated, the comment author's name will no longer link to their website (or profile) in the comment section. This helps reduce spam and unnecessary outbound links.

This is especially useful for reducing spam, as many spammers leave links in their comments. Removing the hyperlink can improve the overall user experience by eliminating irrelevant or malicious links.

Navigate to WP Admin -> CommentXpert and check the "Eliminate Website Input from Comment Form" option. This will disable the "Website" field for users who are not logged in.

This feature works only for non-logged-in users. If a user is logged in, they will still see the "Website" field.

After enabling this setting, the "Website" field will no longer appear for non-logged-in users when they submit a comment. This helps prevent spam from bots and users who are not registered.

Removing the "Website" field helps reduce spam since many bots use this field to insert spammy URLs. It also simplifies the comment form for users who don't need to provide a website link.

Navigate to WP Admin -> CommentXpert and check the "Prevent Automatic Hyperlinking of URLs" option. This will stop URLs in comments from being automatically converted into clickable links.

This setting works independently of other comment settings. However, it is most effective when combined with other anti-spam measures like disabling the "Website" input and eliminating hyperlinks from authors.

Once activated, URLs entered into the comment text will remain as plain text. They won’t be converted into clickable hyperlinks, reducing the potential for spammy or malicious links being shared in the comment section.

This feature is useful for maintaining a cleaner comment section and reducing the risk of malicious or irrelevant URLs being shared. It also helps to prevent spammers from using comment URLs to promote external sites.

Navigate to WP Admin -> CommentXpert and check the "Turn Off Comments Across the Entire Site" option. This will disable the comment feature globally on your WordPress site.

This setting overrides any comment settings at the individual post or page level. If you have specific posts or pages where you still want to allow comments, you will need to disable this option.

After enabling this setting, all comment forms across your site will be hidden, and users will not be able to submit new comments. Existing comments may still be visible, depending on your theme’s display settings.

This setting is particularly useful for sites that do not require user feedback, such as portfolios, corporate websites, or sites under maintenance. It allows you to easily disable comments across the entire site without having to adjust individual post settings.
