Unable to turn off comments and discussions.

Did you follow all the steps as described here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/enable-disable-comments/

I did another run through and yes to all steps.

Today I made a new page on which the new settings do apply. So is it because the pages were created two weeks ago? No one has commented anything.

Here’s the website. It has comments on almost every page accept contact which I made with the right settings.

Thanks in advance for helping!

Hmmmm… Maybe a silly question but did you save the pages (clicked on update button) after you changed comment setting?
Do you have a caching plugin installed?
Does your theme have a settings panel?

Good question, but yes I did push update serveral times and reloaded the page as well.

Caching is off, I deactivated the plugin now as well. Checked the boxes and apply, but still no change (after reloading the page).

My theme (colorway by inkthemes) has a settings panel, but no options for comments in it.

This really is a hard one I think……

Did you try to change the page template(s)?
Inkthemes claim that this is one of the key features:

Individual Page/Post Customisation – Change various layout options on each individual page (or globally if you want)

Try playing with that and check if there’s any change.

This is how I can edit the comments. What to do with it?

<!– You can start editing here. –>
<div id=”commentsbox”>
<?php if (have_comments()) : ?>
<h3 id=”comments”><?php comments_number(‘No Responses’, ‘One Response’, ‘% Responses’); ?><?php _e(‘so far.’, ‘colorway’); ?></h3>
<ol class=”commentlist”>
<?php wp_list_comments(); ?>

<div class=”comment-nav”>
<div class=”alignleft”>
<?php previous_comments_link() ?>
</div>
<div class=”alignright”>
<?php next_comments_link() ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php else : // this is displayed if there are no comments so far ?>
<?php if (!comments_open() && !is_page()) : ?>
<?php _e(‘Comments are closed.’, ‘colorway’); ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if (comments_open()) : ?>
<div id=”comment-form”>
<?php comment_form(); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; // if you delete this the sky will fall on your head ?>
</div>

Create a template for your pages without comment form.
If you want pages with comments just place the comment form in template page.

Basicaly you could comment out/delete everything between <!--Start Comment Section--> and <!--End Comment Section--> but that would’nt solve the initial problem.

I’m a dummy still, but a fast learner.

How can I create a template without a comment form?
And can I keep the pages as they are, because when I change them, they will go in the wrong order at the top and I don’t know how to change that.
