 * Heyo,
 * I’m having some problem with the wp_insert_post() function. I’m trying to save
   some new posts automatically and everything seems fine except for the ‘comment_status’.
   It just opens it, no matter what I enter before.
 *     ```
       $wordpress_post_data = array(
       'post_content' 		=> $fb_content,
       'post_name'		=> $fb_post_name,
       'post_title' 		=> $options['post_title'],
       'post_status' 		=> 'publish',
       'post_author' 		=> $options['post_user'],
       'post_date' 		=> $fb_created_time,
       'post_date_gmt' 	=> $fb_created_time,
       'comment_status'	=> 'closed',
       'post_category' 	=> array($options['post_category']),
       'tags_input' 		=> $options['post_tags']
       );
       	return $wordpress_post_data;
       ```
