Description

WP Comment Humility relocates the “Comments” top level menu underneath the “Posts” top level menu.

Because comments are off by default for Pages, this plugin puts comments where they make the most sense now.

  • Download and install using the built in WordPress plugin installer.
  • Activate in the “Plugins” area of your admin by clicking the “Activate” link.
  • No further setup or configuration is necessary.

How does this work with custom post types?

Fine, but the user experience might be weird. If you have a post type (other than “post”) that supports comments, it may make more sense to not use this plugin.

Give it a try and deactivate it if it doesn’t seem right. This plugin is non-destructive, so you can toggle it without issue.

Does what it says

Does exactly what is says, works well

Should be in WP Core

By Tevya (thefiddler) on May 18, 2018

I assume some people would freak if it got added in core! But it should be this way, then require a plugin to move it "back" out. Excellent plugin!

Fantastic

I never understood that. Thanks!

A good step to remove clutter from the Dashboard

By Pieter Bos (senlin) on September 3, 2016

I'm all for a clean WP Dashboard and since comments are finally exclusively for Posts (or at least by default disabled for Pages), it only makes sense to declutter the Dashboard and moving comments to where they belong.

Thanks for developing WP Comment Humility!

The only suggestion I have is to rename it as the word humility may make sense to native English speakers, it does much less to non-native English speaking people, the other 95% of the world population 😉

Simple and brilliant

By Japh (japh) on September 3, 2016

This never occurred to me before, but as soon as I saw the plugin I couldn't unsee it. Having "Comments" under "Posts" in the navigation of my personal site's admin just makes sense.

I don't use custom post types that have comments.

Nice UX enhancement

By Steve Grunwell (stevegrunwell) on September 3, 2016

This plugin does exactly what's stated on the box, moving "Comments" under the "Posts" heading.

@JJJ makes an excellent point regarding custom post types with comments enabled, but for standard WordPress installations this plugin's fantastic.
