Removing name and e-mail fields from Leave a Reply section

  • Does anyone know how to remove the name and e-mail fields on the Leave a Reply section at the bottom of posts? I was told with the Premium plan, you could do this via CSS customization but I can’t find any instructions on how to do this. Thanks.

  • Hi Megan. :)

    You can hide those two field from view by adding the following snippet to the CSS panel of the WordPress.com Customizer:

    .comment-form-author, .comment-form-email {
        display: none;
    }

    Hope that’s helpful! We’re right here if extra questions come up, too.

  • Thank you. Yes, this worked to remove the name and e-mail field. However, it still has the statement below the Comments text field stating “fill in the details below” and there is a Website field visible. Is there anyway to get rid of that as well and simply display the Comments text field box and the Submit button?

  • Hi there, add the following to your custom CSS to remove the entry field for website and to remove the “fill in the…” text.

    .comment-form-fields, .comment-form-avatar, #comment-form-nascar {
        display: none !important;
    }
