Setting up the discussion process

In modern sites, rather than provide static information for reading we want people to interact with the site. Enabling discussions in posts and pages is the first and simplest step to begin user interaction on sites. WordPress provides a separate section that you can use to manage discussion-related settings.

In this recipe, we are going to look at the available settings and how to configure them properly to optimize the discussion process.

Getting ready

Twenty Twenty theme should be activated before starting this recipe. WordPress 5.3.2 and higher versions have the Twenty Twenty theme activated by default. If you have changed the theme, use the following steps to activate it.
