    I’ve tried using permalinks for my website. IF you go to the homepage and load it ( https://www.neonfire.org/site) it shows /?pageid=2, not the permalink I set. But if you click on one of the pages and go to another, the permalinks are set up right from there.

    Ex. go to https://www.neonfire.org/site/?page_id=2 and then the permalinks are /about and /reviews, like I wanted. What’s going on? I’m using the static page “home” for my homepage instead of using a blog atmosphere in my attempt to make a CMS-like presentation for my website.

    No, it doesn’t. Everything works.

    I’d consider making a Page template since it looks awful to have a comment form on an intro/About Page.
    The other thing to note: Your “reviews” Page will cause you a lot of grief… if you plan to display posts on a Page. Better reconsider that plan now while the blog is empty. Make Reviews a category, not a Page!

    It did when I posted that, I have no clue what I did to fix it but I was changing a lot of settings; probably had something screwed up or my cache didn’t update it.

    How do you make a page template that takes away the comment form for pages?

    Any decent theme should have such a default Page template, as a template file page.php

    If you don’t, just save your index.php as page.php and cut/edit out everything you don’t need: call for the comment_link and call for the comments_template, etc.

    More: Pages – see the templates section. Note: those additional lines at the top if you have more Page templates are needed ONLY for those, never for the one called ‘page.php’.
