 * Hi,
    I’m trying to make a plug in to protect posts with a password (but without
   wp-pass) and I can correctly hide the comments (with add_filter(‘comments_array’,’
   my-function’)) but I can’t found any filter or action to hide the form.
 * Thanks

 * Does anybody know ?
    I want not to modify the core (like comments.php), isn’t
   any other way to do that ?

 * Ok, I’ve manage to hide the “Leave a Reply” section with some jQuery. Not the
   best I’ve done … but it’s working 😀
 *     ```
       function myplugin_hideCommentForm($id){
   
           if(!myplugin_allowDisplay($id)){
               echo "<script type='text/javascript' charset='utf-8'>
                   jQuery(document).ready(function(){
                       jQuery('#respond').css('display','none');
                       jQuery('#commentform').css('display','none');
                       jQuery('.nocomments').css('display','block');
                   });
               </script>";
           }
       }
       add_action('comment_form','smsprotect_hideCommentForm');
       ```

 * After I press a post category, the posts for all that category, are displayed
   but the “Leave a Reply” section does not display until I press on the post “title”
   link. Is it possible to have the “Leave a Reply” comments section display when
   the post is originally displayed?
