Topic: How to remove No comments and Leave a Reply from about/contact pages

Hi:

I'm kinda new to Wordpress and well as I'm starting my blog with Arras theme I want to have my About page and contact not to have comments, I've read posts all over the place but can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

I know I can disable comments for all pages, but that's not what I want, I just want certain pages not to have them, I've read about this checkbox that disables comments in the admin, but I can't find it, so, if that's the case, please just point me inthe right direction.

If it's about code, I can do it, just tell me how.

thanks, I really appreciate you answers on this one (I've invested enough time already)

In the top right of the edit post/page screen there is a "screen options" button. Open that up and make sure the comments box is checked. You should then get a new meta box for comments in your edit post/page screens. You may have to enable them in both.

I'm sorry but doesn't that just hide the comments on the page/post editing page but not on the respective blog page itself?

Yes, but if he doesn't see the comment meta box to begin with he has to turn it on. Understand?

I think I found the source of the confusion. What you have to check is the option called "discussion". That gives you a meta box where you can disable comments.
Checking the option "comments" gives you a meta box, too, but it doesn't give you the enable/disable option.

And for all looking to disable comments from all pages (like I did when I came to this thread): easily achieved by deleting the  <?php comments_template('', true); ?> line from the page.php

Just simply uncheck “Allow people to post comments on the article” at Discussion Settings?

Hello arras webmasters -

I am trying to hide references to comments on my home page and category page. I can't seem to find where to hide these.

If you un-check it just disables them, but yes.

Re: How to remove No comments and Leave a Reply from about/contact pages

Big tip ( well it was big for me ! ) after reading and surfing through the wonderful forum, if you have a one page ( no columns ) then you need to drop / delete or edit out  <?php comments_template('', true); ?> from
One Column Page Page Template
(pagetpl-onecolumn.php)

smile lost hair over it. It's growing back noew though, thanks for the concern.

Cheers,
al.

Go to the theme folder and find sidebar.php

Delete the following section:

<li><h2><?php _e('About Me'); ?></h2>

        <ul>

            <li>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit. Vestibulum at arcu. Integer et risus. Morbi id tellus. Integer felis. </li>

        </ul>

    </li>

Amazing theme. Love it! How can I add Facebook Like button into the image and video light boxes? That would be an awesome update. To augment my Facebook marketing strategy, I now ggg so the integration of the Facebook Like button into your theme is critical. I will pay you money out of my Social Marketing budget to add this key Facebook Marketing tool. I was not sure if the Facebook Like button in a Light box would apply to each image, or just that specific page? Again, great theme.  smile
