Sorry, but I’m confused. Do you mean it requires WP comments to be enabled, or that it requires “Use Discourse Comments” to be enabled? Or both? Big picture, I would expect that “Link to Comments Without Displaying Them” would still allow _all_ the other settings and functionality to work, just without loading and display actual comments from Discourse. In fact, I would also expect that by choosing that setting, WP comments could even be turned off without breaking any functionality, since we aren’t actually displaying any comments. (But that’s a separate issue: [Why enable wordpress post comments? - #13 by jtbayly](https://meta.discourse.org/t/why-enable-wordpress-post-comments/97592/13)) Does that make sense? I think a workaround could be to just turn on comment loading, then enable the “Only Import Moderator-Liked” setting. But that would require me to ban moderators from liking posts. Seems like a bad idea. lol --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/link-to-comments-without-displaying-them-option-not-working/98296)._
