How to remove comment author’s URL from your WordPress blog?
I recently came across an excellent read about the secrets of comments.php in WordPress by Gilles Maes at Net-Tuts, and I thought of testing this immediately, how to remove comment author’s URL from your WordPress blog. Now it is there for a reason, and I do not really recommend doing this but then the quality of some links is extremely low. I usually edit out questionable links from author and allow the comment when reasonable but I can’t imagine doing that all the time and certainly not on a blog with very big audience.
You can also simply remove URL field from comments.php but I won’t do that if I were you, simply because down the line some day you might want to get them back, so let them live in the database but not show if you have a problem with it.
Now in order to remove comment author’s URL, link or website, look for the following code under comments.php of the theme you are using.
<?php comment_author_link(); ?>
and remove _link so it looks like,
<?php comment_author(); ?>
that’s it, you are done. If you are having any trouble then feel free to ask me.
