## FAQ

### How does this plugin do its magic?

Restrict Comments makes use of the ‘comments_clause’ filter, provided by WordPress,
in order to modify the query to select comments in the database, excluding the ones
that do not meet the criteria.

### Does this plugin insert or delete anything from the database?

Not at all. It only filters the comments select query, based on options defined 
by the owner on the plugin’s settings page. Your data is secure!

### Does this plugin work with any theme?

That\’s the goal, but we cannot be sure. There are so many themes! If you have any
troubles, please use the support forum.
