  • Works as it should - Quick suggestion though ;)

    Great plugin. But it would be helpful to also remove existing links. Example: add_filter( 'get_comment_author_url', function( $url, $comment_ID, $comment ) { if ( ! is_admin() && $comment->user_id !== get_post()->post_author && ! user_can( $comment->user_id, 'manage_options' ) ) { return ''; } return $url; }, 10, 3 );
