static page

You just make more pages…. pages -> add new

Any wp Page is static in the sense that the copy on it usually stays the same and is not created dynamically like the posts page.

You can create new pages, add html or whatever and navigate to them thru a menu on your static front page.

So do I have to have any page that has the posts on it?

I had it so that the front page doesnt have the post and now no matter what I do it has leave a reply at the bottom!!!! GRRRRRRRR

no

comments can be switched off for individual pages for instance under
dashboard – pages – all pages – quick-edit below the page title in the list – untick ‘allow comments’

Did that, thank you. I still have half that still have recent posts on the page. I double checked that I unchecked. Ugh, this is so frustrating.
Thanks for helping.

Also, why cant I copy and past info?

still have recent posts on the page

what theme are you using?
might be a page template with this function; or a widget in the sidebar (?)

Just the 2011. I deleted all the pages but one. and started over. I am so new at this, that I hadnt even put much on any of them yet. Thanks again.
