Perfect

Merci pour ce plugin simple et efficace

Nice work!

As simple as this plugin is it solves a BIG problem for me! I needed something that would close and open comments on posts based on the author role but doing it manually works just fine. Thanks!

No longer works

Not only does this plugin no longer work in current WP versions, the author’s site, coffee2code.com, has been down for the past 5 months.

Fantastic plugin

I’ve been using this plugin for a while now on some client sites and finally installed it on my own site. The width of the dropdown menu needs to be constrained, but it works and does exactly what it
