Hide comments globally

[stexeira]

Hi, I don’t see this elsewhere, so I’ll ask. Is there a way in Dante to hide the option for comments on all posts/pages? If not, individually? Thanks.

Hi there,

Sure, just go to Settings > Discussion: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5jasqbj8gxq98ji/Screenshot%202013-11-25%2009.40.40.png

Thanks, Ed. I actually tried that and yet I still get the comments on all my pages. http://www.glsresearch2.com/

Am I, perhaps, missing something obvious?

My apologies. I figured out what I was doing wrong. Thanks for the help and I LOVE the theme.

how did you turn off the comments, i have tried a few time to get rid of them and cant figure it out.

ukieblack, I had difficulty with turning off the comments option because I was using pre-built pages. I simply stopped using those and created my own and the problem went away. That is as long as I had turned it off in settings>discussion.

Thanks, comments ignoring usual methods to turn them of was most annoying.

You can turn them off globally, but you would also need to turn them off on pages already enabled on – that’s just the way WordPress works. Unfortunately we had to enable comments on pages due to ThemeForest’s new requirements.

A quick way to enable in bulk is to select all pages and then bulk > quick edit > uncheck the comments box.

Hope that helps.
