• I want to remove the comment field from the pages of my wp site. I unchecked the setting of “Allow people to post comments on new articles” but the form for comments appears again.

  • Suggestion:

    If it doesnot work ,you can open the PHP file and remove the comment part.
    Open the particular themes folder .

    wp-content/themes/themes-name/single.php

    Settings >> Discussion >> uncheck “Allow people to post comments on new articles”

    This applies to new posts that you will publish from now on.

    To disallow comments from already publish posts:

    Posts >> select them all and “Edit” under bulk actions and hit apply >> choose “do not allow” next to comments and hit update posts.

    Thank you xyonme, but I opened single.php file and couldn’t see anything concerning comments.

    I am having the same problem:
    I am using theme twenty fourteen.
    Yesterday I managed to remove all the comment boxes at the bottom of each page by going to settings/ discussion and deselected all the comments related items, I then cleared the browser cache several times. saved all changes.
    Some of the comment boxes vanished those that did not I did manually and also went into screen options and removed comments setting.
    I saved all changes .
    I just now opened the website and all comment boxes are back.
    Help is needed for this old biddy to get it right.
