    Ah, works great. Thanks! Another way (perhaps a simpler one) to disable threaded comments is to basically just make sure your Blog Feed isn't set to "Full".

    "If you have commenting enabled on your blog, then threaded commenting will work provided you have your blog feed set to "Full," and have chosen the “Embedded" option as opposed to “Full page” or “Popup window.” To change your commenting settings, just go to the Comments section under Settings | Posts and comments. The setting to change your blog feed can be found under Settings | Other."

    I have only difficulty in adding text by the Comment Form Message section: I do not know how I can quote the code [img]IMAGE-URL-HERE[/img] without activating it.

  20. says:

    jquery conflict with other script. what can you suggest?

  21. says:

    I get a broken image icon and can only view the image if I right-click and View Image (Firefox 31.0).

    I also see Google has its usual disinterest in answering users' questions.

  22. says:

    Could it work if you added the javascript gadget and pasted the code there?

  23. says:
