## Beskrywing

Delete & Disable Comments is a powerful tool for WordPress administrators to efficiently
manage their site’s comments. With this plugin, you can:

 * Delete all spam comments with one click
 * Delete all comments (with option to create a backup first)
 * Disable comments site-wide
 * Download a backup of your comments before deletion

The plugin is designed to be simple to use while providing robust functionality 
for comment management.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/delete-disable-comments` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Use the Settings->Delete & Disable Comments screen to configure the plugin

## Kwel-vrae

### Can I recover deleted comments?

Yes, if you create a backup before deletion. The plugin offers a backup option before
performing any deletion operation.

### Will disabling comments affect existing comments?

No, disabling comments only prevents new comments from being added. Existing comments
remain visible unless you explicitly delete them.

## Aanbevelings
