 * Hi:
    Working on a site that will have a static homepage but wants to use blog
   functionality for an articles page. But they don’t want people to be able to 
   comment.
 * Do I have to actually remove code from the theme template? (single.php?)
 * Or am I supposed to build a page using blog-related blocks instead of relying
   on the blog templates that come with the theme?
 * Thanks!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fhow-remove-post-comments%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi:
    It looks like I can create a new post template and just not include the 
   comments blocks?
 * Alternatively I can use a plugin to remove all comment functionality.
 * Those are my options, correct?
 * Thanks!

 * Hello there!
 * Please be informed that you may disable comments for new posts under the Dashboard
   > Settings > Discussion > “Allow people to submit comments on new posts” option.
   As for the existing ones, you may use the “Bulk Edit” option under the Dashboard
   > Posts > All Posts, where you may select the “Do not allow” option near the “
   Comments” field.
