Disable Comments for images

    Hello!

    First, I’ll admit to being a word press newb, so I might just be missing a simple setting.  I’m playing with Mantra and am liking it alot.  However, In creating a photo gallery I noticed that when you click an image from the gallery, the page has a comments box (see <a href=”http://wpmrm.org/beta/?attachment_id=87&#8243; this page </a> ).  I would like to disable it and I just find how to do that.

    Also, I have the Share buttons turned on and they are showing up on the secondary pages, but not the presentation page, and I guess they should probably also show up on the image page as well, but that’s not too big of a deal to me.

    Thanks!

    Bob

    Hi!

    You need to create a child theme and paste the following code in the chlild themes’ functions.php file. Or you can add this in mantra’s functions.php file but the changes will be lost when you update to another version.


    function hide_attachment_comments( $open, $post_id ) {
    $post = get_post( $post_id );
    if( $post->post_type == 'attachment' ) {
    return false;
    }
    return $open;
    }
    add_filter( 'comments_open', 'hide_attachment_comments', 10 , 2 );

    Thanks, I modified the functions.php and that seems to have done the trick.

    Any update on the share buttons not showing up on the presentation page?

    Hi!

    The share plugin attaches itself to posts or created pages. As the presentation page is neither of them it has nothing to attach to. We’ll fix that in the next theme update.
