  We are wanting to set a different number of days after which comments close for one individual post without changing the universal settings. Is this possible?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m sorry but we don’t have sophisticated comment closure settings like you describe. This universal setting is all we have:

  3. Automatically close comments on articles older than __ days – This setting can be used to have comments closed on articles that are X days old. As an example, if you only want articles to accept comments for 30 days you would check the box and type 30 into the text field.
