## Description

Comment Limiter helps site owners control the length of comments submitted on their
WordPress site.

With this plugin, you can define minimum and maximum character limits for comments,
helping reduce low-effort comments, spam-like submissions, and overly long responses.

This is useful for blogs, communities, review sections, and any site where comment
quality matters.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/comment-limiter/` directory,
    or install the plugin through the WordPress Plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Go to the plugin settings page to configure your minimum and maximum comment length
    rules.

## FAQ

### Can I set both minimum and maximum comment limits?

Yes. You can configure rules for minimum and maximum comment length.

### Will this affect existing comments?

No. Comment Limiter only checks new comments submitted after the plugin is active.

### Does this work with the default WordPress comment form?

Yes. The plugin is designed to work with the standard WordPress comment system.

Works perfect, using WordPress 6.2.2 – Thank you! PS I even check for errors and
bugs but none thrown. You’ll find settings under Comments > Comment Limiter 🙂
