WordPress 101: Enable or Disable Comment in WordPress Post and Page

Discussions

WordPress comes with few default post types – Post, Page, Attachment, Revision and Nav Menus. Of course, you could also create your own Custom Post Types. The post is where you write your article and will be listed in reverse sequential order by time, while Page is also like Post, but have no time or date.

Please read the article on WordPress Codex – Post Types.

In this WordPress101 article, we’re focusing on Post and Page. For standard WordPress themes, Post and Page usually come with comment or discussion section that allows users to give feedback, ask questions etc. However, there’s a time where you want to disable or enable comments section.
