How to turn comments OFF on PAGES only?

Hello, williamkwp.

When you’re logged into your dashboard, click on pages. From there, you’ll see a listing of your pages. By clicking on “Quick Edit” for each page, you can control whether or not you want comments.

Hope that helps.

In your page template (usually page.php in your theme directory), comment out this line:

<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>

Another way is to just hide the comments form through CSS, something like this:

body.page div#comments {display:none;}

Senff,

He’s made it clear that he’s a rookie, yet you advise him to edit a core theme file? That’s the wrong advice.

Thanks, Senff, for the instructions, but as kmcminn said, that’s above my pay grade. ??

kmcminn, thanks for the directions. I must have looked at the Quick Edit screen 50 times last night, knowing the command was somewhere on the Dashboard, but just didn’t see it. I found the “comments off” checkbox for each page and turned them off. Thanks for the direction!
