## Descrição

**Replai Comments** gives you full control over WordPress comments and stops comment
spam — from its own admin section.

Turn it on and choose where to disable comments:

 * **Everywhere** on the site, or
 * **Only on specific post types** (posts, pages, media or your custom post types).

While active, Replai Comments:

 * **Closes comments and trackbacks** and removes comment support from the selected
   content.
 * **Hides existing comments** on the front-end (optional), and swaps the theme’s
   comment template for an empty one so no “comments are closed” message shows.
 * **Cleans the admin** — hides the Comments menu and admin-bar bubble, the “Recent
   Comments” dashboard widget, the comments list column and the Discussion settings
   page.
 * **Blocks spam at the source** — disables comments sent through **XML-RPC** and
   the **REST API**.
 * **Removes pingbacks & feeds** — strips the `X-Pingback` header, disables outgoing
   pingbacks and comment RSS/Atom feeds.

**Live status**

A real-time panel tells you whether comments are actually open on the **web** and
via the **REST API**, whether XML-RPC pingback and the X-Pingback header are removed,
and — when comments are closed — **why** (by Replai Comments or by WordPress’s Discussion
settings / the post itself). Re-check any time.

**Cache-aware and editor-safe**

When you save settings or delete comments, Replai Comments **purges common page 
caches** (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, W3 Total Cache, WP Super Cache, WP Fastest Cache,
SG Optimizer, Cache Enabler) so a cached page never keeps serving the comment form.
It also leaves the block editor **“Notes”** comment type (WordPress 6.9+) untouched.

**Bulk delete tool**

Clean your database with one click: permanently delete **all** comments, or only**
pending**, **spam** or **pingbacks/trackbacks**, processed in batches with live 
counters.

Everything runs on your own site, is fully reversible (turn the plugin off to bring
comments back), and the whole admin is available in **7 languages** (English, Spanish,
Catalan, French, Italian, Portuguese and German) based on your site language.

For developers: define `REPLAI_DC_KEEP_TEMPLATE` (true) to keep your theme’s comment
template, or `REPLAI_DC_KEEP_DISCUSSION` (true) to keep the Discussion settings 
page.

## Instalação

 1. Upload the **replai-disable-comments** folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install
    it from the WordPress plugin directory.
 2. Activate the plugin.
 3. Open the **Replai Comments** menu, enable it, choose the scope and save.

## Perguntas frequentes

### I disabled comments but the form still shows. Why?

Some themes don’t check the comment status correctly. Replai Comments also swaps
the comment template for an empty one; if a message still appears, your theme is
hard-coding it and you may need to edit the theme.

### Does it delete my comments?

Only if you use the **Delete comments** tool. Disabling comments hides/closes them
but does not remove them from the database.

### Can I bring comments back?

Yes. Turn the plugin off (or disable it in settings) and WordPress comments work
again. Deleted comments, however, cannot be recovered.

### Does it stop spam sent via XML-RPC or the REST API?

Yes. It blocks comment creation through XML-RPC and the REST API, and removes pingback
methods.

### The comment form still shows after disabling — is it a cache?

Often, yes. Replai Comments clears the common page-cache plugins when you save or
delete, but if you use another cache or a CDN, purge it once. The Live status panel
checks the real state so you can confirm.

### Does it affect the block editor “Notes” (WordPress 6.9+)?

No. The editor “Notes” comment type is excluded from both the API block and the 
bulk delete, so collaboration notes keep working.

### Does it call any external service?

No. Everything runs locally on your site.

   tool (PHPCS).

   comments; clean the admin (menus, admin bar, dashboard widget, list column, Discussion
