I would like to know how to completely DISABLE commenting on the RSGALLERY component. Inside the admin config screen if you turn commenting off it doesn’t work.

I do not want to use commenting on RSGallery. For one there is no way to track when a comment was made, no notification of any kind. I would prefer the gallery just show pictures and if people want to comment they can do so on my blog.

Besides eliminating the option to comment on gallery pictures I would also like to know what file, and location you would go to remove the “MOST COMMENTED” link from being displayed on the top bar of the gallery so its not an option for clicking.

Thank you for your time.

THANK YOU for both solutions.

Can you tell me if this in anyway improves performance? I’m looking to lesson the hits on the database in order to speed up the website. This doesnt seem like its a hit on the DB unless it looks for comments all the time even if there are none.

Thank you either way.
