Deactivate comments functions and remove areas absolutely from the WordPress install
Note
Remove Comments Absolutely is abandoned. Please use https://github.com/inpsyde/disable-comments instead. This plugin supports all new features, like Gutenberg blocks to remove all comments features.
Description
The comment feature in WordPress is an essential component of blogs - but not in all cases it's needed, especially if you use it as a traditional CMS.
Sure, you can just leave out the comment form while you are creating a theme and disable the comment options in your backend. But this is not the best way for everyone. In such a case, I turn the comments off completely, making sure that the posts can not have that option and also remove the fields for the comments in the backend. That way the user gets exactly what he needs. Meanwhile, I have needed this so often that I created a small Plugin and I'm able to immediately „switch off“ the functions and comment areas.
Also see the post about the idea.
