How to disable comments on Facebook - all methods

The algorithm for disabling comments on Facebook depends on the content being posted and the place where it is added (personal page, group, etc.).

How to disable comments on a post on a page

Fb rules allow the Facebook profile owner or page administrator to hide or delete some opinions. However, it will not be possible to turn off the discussion completely. If someone else's comment is hidden, the creator of the material and friends will see it.

In this case, you need to know how to delete a comment on Facebook and thereby remove it from access. Do the following:

  1. Find the comment you plan to delete.
  2. Click on the three dots next to it.
  3. Select Hide Comment.
  4. Specify what exactly needs to be done with the entry—hide or delete.

For other pages or specific individuals, access restrictions are available, as well as complaints about posts that contradict the rules of the Facebook system.

How to disable comments in a group

If we are talking about a group, the administrator and community creator have more options. They have the right to disable commenting on the publication for all participants. To do this you need to go through the following steps:

  1. Log in to the group you are interested in.
  2. Select the post you want to disable for commenting.
  3. Click on the three dots and select the desired function.


If everything is done correctly, comments on the post on Facebook are closed.

How to turn off comments for photos and friends

When creating a publication, a person has the right to indicate who will see it in the future. The following options are available here: Friends, Everyone, or Friends of Friends. If the user has not closed the profile, the primary Facebook settings allow only those people who are in the friend category to like. If a person has been tagged in a post, this action is also available to that user's friends.

The default settings can be changed and thereby disable the ability to like. The algorithm is like this:

  1. At the top of the main account screen, click on the Down Arrow symbol, and in the menu that appears, select Settings.
  1. On the left, find Public Posts.
  2. Pay attention to the second block from the top, which is provided for setting settings for comments.


In the comments section for public publications, the latter can be made available to everyone, but the circle of commenters can be limited taking into account one of the available options (friends of friends, everyone, or only friends). The setting below regarding available Facebook post notifications allows you to set settings for notifications about subscriptions, reposts and comments for people who are not classified as friends.

As for information on a public Facebook profile, in this category you can set options for liking and commenting on photos in your account. If you want to disable photo comments by strangers, select the appropriate option.

With that said, it is clear that friends have privileges. They can always leave comments and likes regardless of the settings. This applies to photos and publications.

Who sees my VKontakte likes?

Posts that you have marked with a heart or like can only be seen by your friends, again, if you open your access to them in your privacy settings.

The question immediately arises: is it possible to see who likes and when a certain user of the social network VKontakte? The question is very exciting, especially for girls. Who doesn’t want to find out who likes it, or did my other half like it?

how to see who a guy likes

To do this, there are many applications and online services for VKontakte. The downside of some of these tools is that they are paid, or they do not show exactly what is expected.

One such helper service is SearchLikes. The principle of operation is very simple - you just need to select a specific person and start scanning. Next, it will show you when a certain photo or post was liked by the user you need. Such checks can be done not only on the accounts of other users, but also on groups to see which posts the “suspect” liked.

How to hide comments on Instagram from your computer

Despite the fact that Instagram was originally created only for mobile phones, some people use the desktop version of the application. You can download the official Instagram only on a computer with the Windows 10 operating system. It is also worth considering that the functionality of such a program is limited. However, the user has the opportunity to disable or hide comments even in the computer version:

  1. Launch the application and go to your Instagram profile.
  2. Click on the wheel icon on the right side of the page. This will open the Settings section.
  3. On the left are all account parameters available for change. Including comments.
  4. Managing comments will allow you to allow or block comments on your posts.
  5. You also have the option to use an automatic or manual filter to hide offensive and negative captions under posts. The principle of operation of all options and filters is identical to the functionality of the mobile version of Instagram.

Comment filters

We recommend paying attention to the spam filter function, which allows you to maintain a list of prohibited words. As soon as a user uses one of them when commenting, a special bot will automatically delete the message. Let's figure out how to find it.

  1. Go to the settings menu; to do this, tap on the three horizontal bars in the personal profile section.

  2. We find the item “Confidentiality».

  3. In the next window, click on the item "Comments».

  4. Function "hide insults" is set by default, but just below there is "manual filter" We recommend activating it and entering annoying keywords there.

Now you know how to disable comments on Instagram using both mobile operating systems and a personal computer. We recommend setting privacy settings immediately after registration, this way you can avoid negative emotions from the application.

Why don't I see posts or photos that my friends like?

If you previously went to the update feed and saw posts from your friends, but now you don’t see them, there are only two options:

  • The user has hidden access to his updates. In this situation, you cannot do anything, since only the user can change the settings on his page. In this case, “SearchLikes”, which was already mentioned above, will come to your aid.
  • The social network VKontakte is overloaded. In this case, you just need to wait a little and everything will fall into place.

Negative aspects of hidden comments

The negative side of hidden comments is that people cannot express their opinions, and for many this is important. It's unpleasant to read offensive comments on your profile, but this is the downside of popularity. And sometimes criticism can be justified, and it’s worth listening to it in order to make your account more interesting and your product more in demand.

Whether or not to close the ability to comment is up to the account owner. But you shouldn't hide comments completely. If you're just chatting with friends, then it's easier to use a private profile. But if your account generates income, then it’s better to communicate with your subscribers.

Benefits of closed comments

To a greater extent, blocking is needed by bloggers with a large number of subscribers. Although ordinary users can be insulted. No one likes to waste time on negativity from strangers who often hide their faces.

In addition, if the account is needed to make a profit through the sale of services or goods, such comments can affect the level of sales. Blocking comments can help avoid this.

There are different ways to hide comments on Instagram:

  • blocking for all publications;
  • ban for individual users;
  • hide by keywords;
  • disable for new publication.
