    Hi all,

    I am trying to get rid of the ’email’ field that appear when a user goes to submit a comment. The things I’ve tried from googling around a bit do not seem to work.

    My understanding is that within the comments.php I need to pass some kind of customized array to the comments_form() method but the wordpress documentation for customizing this array is highly confusing (at least to me).

    I would appreciate any help with exact code I need to put into my comments.php to remove those two fields.

    I use latest version of wordpress 3.9.2 and Free Flato theme

    Thanks

  • Remove this from your comments.php file: 

    'email' =>
'<div class="form-group comment-form-email">' .
'<input id="email" class="form-control" name="email" type="text" placeholder="'. __( 'Email', 'themememe' ) . ( $req ? '*' : '' ) .'" value="' . esc_attr(	$commenter['comment_author_email'] ) .
'" size="30"' . $aria_req . ' /></div>',

    Hi There

    It should be something in the comments.php in the range of

    <input type=”text” name=”url” id=”url” … or something similar; then delete or change it to hidden like this :

    <input type=”hidden” name=”url” id=”url” …

    .comment-form-email {
display: none;
}

    Add that to the bottom of your custom.css or style.css file.
