Override Comment Deadline
WordPress lets you set a number of days after which comments will be unavailable for individual posts. This plugin will allow you to keep commenting open on specific posts.
Once the plugin is enabled:
- Set a comment deadline in Settings > Discussion using the « Automatically Close Comments… » option. Closing comments on old posts is a great way to avoid spam comments.
- Edit an individual post on which you’d like to keep discussion open indefinitely and check the Override Comment Deadline box.
