I thought it was a rather forlorn hope, but no big deal - it would just have added a bit of icing on the cake. Unfortunately the group who will be using it are pretty much IT naive so self-hosting and self-administration are definite non-starters. Apart from this and an issue with cascading permissions down to "sub-blogs", Wp.com is the perfect solution. That's another post however.

my regards Stefan

You can't use Javascript here on WordPress.com blogs only on WordPress.org ones. Try this:

http://wordpress.org/support/

Most of the people who answer questions here are volunteers and we are not familiar with the workings of WordPress.org blogs only WordPress.com ones.

If you have a WordPress.com blog - please give the URL of your blog and maybe someone else will be able to help you, but either way, you can't use Javascript here.

Made rapid progress in the last few weeks thanks to to WP but have hit a small problem that I can't find reference to in the forum. I spawn a sub-blog from the main one to provide a "help" facility and I want to add a menu bar item to it to close the window without the user having to use the browser close button. If I embed a bit of code (e.g. Javascript) in a "Close" page would that do the trick or is there a neater way of doing it.

Many thanks Stefan

How do I close a blog. I've just created a new one but have changed my mind about it. I might want to create it again at a later date but under a different account so I need to be able to close it to use the title etc again. How do I close it?

The problem comes from my wrong email.
Because I use the form for get a new password.
Do you know if it's possible to rollback the password of my inscription (the first password in fact)???

It's http://blogname.wordpress.com/wp-admin. You put the username and password there. Blogs don't have to be active. Admins don't have to do anything. But you can't delete all admins from a blog; there is always one in charge.

I know that what I'm describing will work because I changed my test blog theme to the Treba theme and tested it. What you probably are not finding is the options on the very far right hand side of the post after you open it to edit it. Look way over to the right. Look outside the editor box that you typed the post into. You will see a series of dark blue labels with white writing on them that you probably have never noticed or used. The top one says "Discussion" and it will have either a = sign or - sign on it's far right corner. When you find it the instructions will make sense to you.
First find the post you want to close comments on and click on edit. Then look for "discussion" on the far right hand side of the page.
P.S. Ever since I protested the porno blogs being in top posts and top blogs and I started successfully hunting down the spammers and sploggers who haunt the forum they have been after my blog. I am giving them the single finger salute and increasing my hunting forays. The spam dragon will never give up the hunt and podz and sysadmin won't either.

Yes
-> dashboard -> manage -> posts -> select the post and click "edi"
look to the far right hand side for the blue bar that says "discusion + -"
-> click the + - sign and clear both of the check boxes for "allow comments" and "allow pings" -> scroll down under the post on the left hand side -> click "save"
That should do it. I have hundreds to do *sigh*. :)

Thanks that's really good to know because that's what the spammers are doing. They are sending in fake comments on old posts. Now I can go ahead and close the comments on my old posts - ah ha! Thanks again. :)

Have you tried a quick theme switch to see if it is theme dependent?

]]> britishbullblog on "Closing comments with Regulus" http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/closing-comments-with-regulus#post-26765 Wed, 20 Sep 2006 21:03:12 +0000 britishbullblog 26765@http://en.forums.wordpress.com/ Hi,

Just wondering why if you have allowed comments on a post and some have been left, that if you then choose to close commenting all the comments are removed from view?

Shouldn't you really be able to allow commenting for a post and then be able to stop it at a later date, but still display the existing comments?

I know people are going to say it's probably theme dependent, or if I hosted the blog myself I could do as I pleased etc. etc.

But logically, it just seems odd to me.

Cheers,

BBB.
