Description

Hi! I've been a loyal Wordpress user for years. This is nothing urgent, but something that may improve the user experience.

In Settings > Discussion > Before a comment appears, there are two options: "An administrator must always approve the comment " and "Comment author must have a previously approved comment"

Perhaps I have missed something here, but aren't these options pretty much either/or? If the first box is checked, it's rather irrelevant if the second box is checked, because the first checkbox would override it?

If I'm correct, shouldn't this be changed from a both/and checkbox to an either/or radio button?

Replying to danielmount:

Yes, but it's also possible to uncheck both options. Radio buttons wouldn't allow that.
