This is fairly easy to do - add the following line before the end of the branch:

if (isset($question)) { ... }

at the end of qa_page_q_load_q() in qa-page-question.php:

$question['answerable']=$question['answerable'] && !isset($question['selchildid']);

The && is a logical AND so we're just adding another condition here on whether a question can be answered - the condition is that it has no selected answer.
by
$question['commentable']=$question['commentable'] && !isset($question['selchildid']);

this line still allows comments on best answer.

Gideon, How to fix this issue? thanks!

 $question['commentable']=$question['commentable'] && !isset($question['selchildid']);

It's the same idea - inside this loop:

foreach ($answers as $key => $answer) { ... }

Insert the code:

$answers[$key]['commentable']=$answer['commentable'] && !isset($question['selchildid']);

I'm assuming here you want to prevent comments on all the answers.

yes, once best answer is selected then disable comments on all answers and question. only "ask related question" link should be there.

I guess this should fix the issue.
