Allow Facebook Comments but disable WordPress Comments
-
I would like to allow only Facebook Comments on my website (via a plugin I have installed), but disable the native WordPress Comments altogether. We are getting tons of spam comments through the wordpress interface and they are filling up our database, nor do we use WordPress commenting anyway, hence the need to disable them.
At first I just had the Facebook Comments plugin “hide” WordPress comments through an option in its settings panel. When activating this plugin, it still put up the “Comments Closed” tag and the Facebook Comments went away. So then I tried inserting the php shortcode that calls the Facebook Comments plugin directly into the single.php thinking that would sidestep the above issue, but it still disables it.
So basically… Is it possible to use this plugin to disable WP comments everywhere, but still have my Facebook Comment box show up?
Thanks in advance.
