Comment Settings
The Comments section controls whether students can post comments on lessons across your site. It is a single site-wide toggle that individual courses and lessons can override.
What you can do
- Turn lesson comments on or off site-wide with one toggle.
- Let students discuss a lesson directly under it when comments are enabled.
- Keep the site-wide setting as the default while a course or lesson overrides it where needed.

How to use it
Step 1 -- open Comments
Go to Learnomy Settings and click Comments in the sidebar.
Step 2 -- toggle lesson comments
In the Comment Settings card, switch Allow students to post comments on lessons on or off. This is the site-wide default.
Step 3 -- save
Click Save Changes. When on, a comment thread appears under each lesson in the player unless a specific course or lesson overrides it.

Course-level comments (separate from lesson comments) are planned for a future release, so that toggle is intentionally not shown here yet.
For developers
\Learnomy\Models\Lesson::get_effective_comments_enabled( int $lesson_id )-- resolves the final on/off decision for a lesson by combining the site-wideenable_lesson_commentssetting with any per-course or per-lesson override. Use this rather than reading the raw option, so overrides are honoured.
