# Enabling and Disabling Comments

Comments are enabled by default for all preview deployments on all new projects. **By default, only members of [your Vercel team](/docs/accounts/create-a-team) can contribute comments**.

> **💡 Note:** The comments toolbar will only render on sites with **HTML** set as the
> `Content-Type`. Additionally, on Next.js sites, the comments toolbar will only
> render on Next.js pages and **not** on API routes or static files.

### At the account level

You can enable or disable comments at the account level with certain permissions:

1. Navigate to [your Vercel dashboard](/dashboard) and make sure that you have selected your team from the [scope selector](/docs/dashboard-features#scope-selector).
2. From your [dashboard](/dashboard), select the **Settings** tab.
3. In the **General** section, find **Vercel Toolbar**.
4. Under each environment (**Preview** and **Production**), select either **On** or **Off** from the dropdown to determine the visibility of the Vercel Toolbar for that environment.
5. You can optionally choose to allow the setting to be overridden at the project level.

### At the project level

1. From your [dashboard](/dashboard), select the project you want to enable or disable Vercel Toolbar for.
2. Navigate to **Settings** tab.
3. In the **General** section, find **Vercel Toolbar**.
4. Under each environment (**Preview** and **Production**), select either an option from the dropdown to determine the visibility of Vercel Toolbar for that environment. The options are:
   - **Default**: Respect team-level visibility settings.
   - **On**: Enable the toolbar for the environment.
   - **Off**: Disable the toolbar for the environment.

### At the session or interface level

To disable comments for the current browser session, you must [disable the toolbar](/docs/vercel-toolbar/managing-toolbar#disable-toolbar-for-session).

### With environment variables

You can enable or disable comments for specific branches or environments with [preview environment variables](/docs/vercel-toolbar/managing-toolbar#enable-or-disable-the-toolbar-for-a-specific-branch).

See [Managing the toolbar](/docs/vercel-toolbar/managing-toolbar) for more information.

### In production and localhost

To use comments in a production deployment, or link comments in your local development environment to a preview deployment, see [our docs on using comments in production and localhost](/docs/vercel-toolbar/in-production-and-localhost).

See [Managing the toolbar](/docs/vercel-toolbar/managing-toolbar) for more information.
