How to remove the URL link from user comments on WordPress

October 31, 2019 by admin Leave a Comment

On your WordPress website when a user makes a comment if they put in a url it often makes that a link in the comments. If you want to make that link not clickable you can then add this code to your functions.php file. You may want to backup your WordPress website before you make updates to that on there.

/**
 * Remove link from user comments
 *
 * @author WPSnacks.com
 * @link https://www.wpsnacks.com
 */
remove_filter('comment_text', 'make_clickable', 9);

Then if that works for you it would remove the links from user comments on there.
