Disabling Comments Hide Comments Without Existing

<b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'> is conditional template that serves to declare that the blog owner to allow visitors to post comments. You will usually see this code wraps all the elements in the comment section so if the administrator set option setting to not allow other visitors to write new comments via the main settings panel (not an option on the settings of post), then the rest of the comments that have been entered will participate disappears (hidden ):

<div class='comments' id='comments'>
  <b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>

    The entire content on this section will disappear if the Administrator to set option setting to not allow visitors to write new comments.

  </b:if>
</div>

Normally this would be detrimental to the blogs of type discussion crowded, especially if the comments are published useful for other readers as additional references.

One moment you may be having a busy time or say "are not able to reply to the comments that come in". When you experience it usually thing you will do is shut down temporarily posting comments in a way to hide it like this:

To keep the old comments are not lost, you can move / renew territory conditional <b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'> 
become narrower. Enough remove comments form and let the comments already in place. The trick is to remove the code <b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'> ... </b:if> <b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'> ... </b:if> that surround elements <div class='comments' id='comment'> so it will remain like this:

<div class='comments' id='comments'>
  ...
</div>

Then find this element:

<b:include data='post' name='comment-form'/>

Replace with this:

<b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
  <b:include data='post' name='comment-form'/>
</b:if>

Find also this code:

<b:include data='post' name='threaded-comment-form'/>

Replace with this code:

<b:if cond='data:post.allowComments'>
  <b:include data='post' name='threaded-comment-form'/>
</b:if>

Each code will usually find two pieces, as well as for the comments section. Where is the one element that will actively comment on blogs ordinary version and the other is active on the mobile display blog.
