Sometimes the smallest changes are the most profound and Ryanne Lai decided to take it upon himself to update the Smart Comments Link plugin that did not work in version 1.5.

The smart comments plugin written by Patrick was not compatible with the newer Wordpress 1.5 version which I’m currently using. So I opened the file, modified it, and voila! A new version is born.

From Smart Comments Link:

Smart Comments Link is a hack that conditionally executes comments_popup_link() depending on the post comments status. If comments are closed and there are no comments entered on the post, the link will not display. This cleans up closed posts, saving your readers a click.

Grab the plugin at d. otted rhythm.
